How to Send Microsoft Todo Tasks to Apple Reminders

Are you tired of juggling multiple task management apps across different devices and platforms? With the integration between Microsoft To Do and Apple Reminders, you can now send tasks from your Microsoft account to your Apple devices seamlessly. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps on how to set up this feature on your iPhone or iPad.

Step 1: Open Microsoft To Do

Firstly, open the Microsoft To Do app on your iPhone or iPad and add a new to-do list by tapping the '+' icon at the bottom of the screen. This will create a new list where you can add tasks.

Step 2: Link Your Exchange Account

Next, navigate to the 'Exchange' tab within Microsoft To Do and select the list you just created. You'll be prompted to enable Reminders on your device. Tap 'Save' to confirm.

Step 3: Enable Reminders

When prompted, ensure that Reminders is enabled and tap 'Save'. You may also need to allow access for Microsoft To Do to function properly. Tap 'Yes' to grant the necessary permissions.

Step 4: Link Your Microsoft Account

To complete the setup process, you'll be asked to log in with your Microsoft account. Simply enter your credentials to link your account.

Step 5: Configure on Windows or Android (Optional)

If you also use Microsoft To Do on your Windows or Android device, you can configure the app there as well. However, please note that this integration is currently limited to sending tasks from other platforms to Apple devices only.

How it Works

Once set up, you can create tasks in Microsoft To Do and have them sent over to Apple Reminders. From there, they will be synced across all your Apple devices connected to the same account. This means you can access your tasks on both your iPhone or iPad as well as your Mac.

Limitations

While this integration provides a convenient way to manage tasks across platforms, it's worth noting that it's not a two-way sync. You cannot create tasks directly in Things from your Windows or Android device at the moment. Instead, you'll need to add tasks on other platforms using Microsoft To Do and then import them into Things one by one.

In conclusion, setting up the integration between Microsoft To Do and Apple Reminders is a straightforward process that allows you to send tasks seamlessly across devices. With this feature, you can stay organized and focused without worrying about juggling multiple task management apps.
