Microsoft Planner

Microsoft Planner is the task management app that transforms how teams organize and collaborate on work. Unlike scattered to-do lists or email chains, it gives you a single visual space where your entire team stays synchronized on priorities, progress, and deadlines.

Organize work visually with board-based planning. Each plan gets its own dedicated board where you arrange tasks into buckets—whether by project status, team member, or workflow stage. Drag and drop tasks between columns to update progress instantly. No complicated spreadsheets or confusing status reports needed. Everyone sees the same picture in real time.

Get complete visibility across all your work. The My Tasks view consolidates every assignment across all your plans into one comprehensive list, so you never lose track of what you're responsible for. Your teammates always know who is working on what, eliminating duplicate effort and keeping accountability clear. When you're collaborating on shared plans, transparency becomes automatic—no one has to ask for status updates.

Collaborate without context-switching. Built natively for Office 365, Microsoft Planner keeps all your team conversations, file attachments, and task discussions in one place. Capture a photo directly from your phone and attach it to a task. Have a quick conversation about a deliverable without jumping to email or a separate messaging app. Everything stays with the plan, so nothing gets lost in fragmented communication tools.

Stay connected across all your devices. Switch from your desktop to your phone to your tablet without missing a beat. Continue updating tasks, reviewing progress, and collaborating with your team whether you're at your desk or on the go. Cross-device synchronization means your team is always on the same page, wherever they're working.

Note: Microsoft Planner requires an eligible Office 365 work or school subscription and does not support personal accounts (such as outlook.com or hotmail.com). Confirm your organization's subscription eligibility with your IT department before downloading.

Choose Microsoft Planner to transform task management from a solo administrative burden into a seamless team experience.
