The Planner team is excited to share some fresh new updates in the Planner app for Microsoft Teams. We thank you for your valuable feedback that helps shape feature updates, and hope these capabilities significantly enhance your experience managing tasks and coordinating team initiatives.
This capability allows you to quickly share your plans with teammates, ensuring that everyone can access the plan with a single click. To access this feature, select a plan's overflow menu from the My Plans page and select "Copy link to plan":
We've heard a desire for a way to view the plan associated with a specific task when looking at the task’s details in My Tasks. With this update, you can now transition from viewing a task to exploring the entire plan by selecting the plan’s name at the top of any task's card in the My Tasks view.
We've made it even easier for you to pick up right where you left off. Now, when you apply a filter or sort by column in a plan, Planner will remember your choices for the next time you open it.
We've recently improved the "Assigned tasks" card in the Viva Connections dashboard. With the new updates to the "Assigned tasks" card, which is powered by Planner, users will see a new ‘Add Task’ button. Using this button, users can quickly create tasks, which will be available in the Planner app. As before, the "Assigned tasks" card will continue to show a user how many tasks are assigned to them, and allow the user to open the Assigned to me view to see those tasks in more detail. The large format of the "Assigned tasks" card will also include an "Open Planner" button to open the full Planner app, which is great for other needs like viewing all tasks in a plan.
Your feedback helps inform our feature updates and we look forward to hearing from you as you try out Planner’s new and existing capabilities! To share your feedback about the new Planner app in Teams, you can navigate to the ? icon in the Planner app and select 'Feedback' as seen in the GIF below. We also encourage you to share any features you would like to see in the app by adding it to our Planner Feedback Portal.
