Microsoft Planner board view enhancement showcasing the updated My Day and My Tasks features with a user reviewing tasks.

In the new Integrated version of Microsoft Planner, you’ll find a “My Day” view for tasks due today and a “My Tasks” view for all tasks assigned to you across different sources, including formerly standalone To Do tasks. These views were previously part of the β€œTo Do” app and are now integrated into the new Planner in Microsoft365. 

Board view in Microsoft Planner displays your tasks as cards grouped under columns on a board, providing a clear overview of your workflow at a glance. It also makes it easier to manage and track tasks, allowing users to switch between them in a quick manner.

Now, Board view being expanded to My Tasks and My Day, it offers a more visual and organized way to manage your tasks, helping you stay on top of your priorities and improve your productivity.

My Tasks

My Tasks in Planner presents all your private tasks, tasks assigned to you, and emails you’ve flagged in Outlook.
