The lack of focus on design is something noticeable. Microsoft To-Do lacks a clean, minimal design compared to other to-do apps
What we think about the Design of Microsoft To-Do?
Microsoft To-Do doesn't have the most amazing design. Compared to other tools in the task management space and also the former Wunderlist that had a bit more attractive design. It feels like the design is stuck in 2015 even when you look at it today.
