In addition to all of the free apps that Apple gives to every Mac owner, both the Mac App Store and independent developers provide tools that make using your computer easier — and a little more fun.
Microsoft Planner requires an eligible Office 365 work or school subscription. This app does not support Office 365 personal accounts (for example: [email protected] or [email protected]). If you are not sure about your company’s subscription or the services you have access to, please contact your IT department.
Planner provides a simple, visual way to organize teamwork. Planner makes it easy for your team to create new plans, organize and assign tasks, share files, chat about what you’re working on, and get updates on progress. Organize work visually - Each plan has its own board, where you can organize tasks into buckets. You can categorize tasks based on their status or on whom they’re assigned to. To update the status or change assignments, just drag and drop tasks between columns.
Visibility - The My Tasks view provides a comprehensive list of all your tasks and their status across all your plans. When working together on a plan, team members always know who is working on what. Collaborate - Built for Office 365, Planner lets you work together on the same tasks, attach captured photos directly to them, and even have conversations around tasks without switching between apps. With Planner, all your team’s discussions and deliverables stay with the plan and don’t get locked away across disparate applications. Works across devices - Planner works across all your devices. And with Planner, everyone is always on the same page.
Continue conversations and updates tasks while on-the-go or at your desk.

I'm pretty old fashioned and like to write most of my events and tasks down in a physical planner, but I have learned I also need that info on the go as I have become a busy adult. I’ve searched for different apps to assist with my organization, but none have done it quite so well as this one.
Working on my PhD coursework, research, advisor tasks, plus new-mom duties to take care of my 6 month old, and building a business. This app helps me keep my head together. I need this app to stay around forever, so please don’t disappear or phase out!! When I tell others (everyone, basically) about why I love this app, my description boils down to “lists, on lists, on lists” which is perfect for an organizer like myself!! I never thought I would be over the moon anything by Microsoft but this app pleasantly surprised me.
Keep doing your thing, y’all!! Developer Response, Hi Hizzle8 - Thank you taking the time to share your kind words, we really appreciate it! We spend a lot of time making sure that everything is working properly in Planner, and it's always a nice reminder when we hear directly from people that it's going well. We hope you'll continue to enjoy using the Planner app! Hizzle8, Hands down - Best planner app I have ever used Seriously, this app is everything I could need in my life right now.

Feels a lot like how I tried to make Wunderlist work for business years ago but it never really did. This feels cleaner and less friction overall than Trello. Keep up the great work. I don't use Teams though. I'd love to get this hooked up to Slack. One thing I'd change: after clicking into a task from the 'My Tasks' section, the name of the Plan is in the upper left, next to the Bucket Name. Clicking the Plan name should take me to the Plan, not to change the bucket, like makes sense would happen when you click on the bucket name.
I can't seem to get back to the Plan unless I go to the Planner Hub. Just a few extra clicks that mightn't be needed. Developer Response, Thanks for using our app and providing your feedback!
In our latest update to the Planner app, we've updated the Task Details page so that tapping the plan name at the top will navigate you to the Plan Board. Please update the app, give it a try, and feel free to let us know what you think!

It is flexible, intuitive and clean. Flows work great to tie to other apps within MS world and outside.
MS must invest in the enhancement of Planner to take it to the next level: + create more pre-established Flows + simple integration with email/calendar and perhaps Tasks or ToDo (this would increase adoption enormously.too many competitive tools with email support) + company internal branding, simple images for plans.add a little sizzle to make more main stream + drag and drop, drag and drop, etc If MS wants companies to stay within the MS umbrella for certain apps, then make them work together. The MS apps are great, may not have all the F&F of competition, though the MS apps serve a greater purpose: not all companies need robust PP, CRMs, etc. The core MS apps nicely fill so many gaps needed, without the time and $ burn.
