Completing tasks

When you complete a task, you can mark it as complete by clicking the empty circle to the left of the task description. This will place a checkmark in the circle and move the task to the bottom of the list, under the "Completed" heading.

Synchronizing your tasks

Microsoft To-Do syncs your tasks across all your devices automatically. This means you can access your to-do lists on your computer, tablet or smartphone, as long as you are connected to the internet and have the Microsoft To-Do app installed.
