Watch To Do

Watch To Do: An Apple Watch app for Microsoft To Do

This is an Apple Watch App that lets you use Microsoft To Do on your Apple Watch. It is in no way associated with Microsoft.

It is a standalone watch app, there is no phone app. You login by going to https://microsoft.com/devicelogin and entering a code shown on the watch screen.

Privacy

This app collects no user information, uses no-third-party software or services, and only talks to Microsoft’s To Do servers. Authentication tokens are stored in Apple’s secure KeyChain. I don’t want your data.

You can use it to:

Create tasks
Toggle tasks done/not-done
Mark tasks as important or not
Update a task's title
Update a task's notes
Update a tasks's due date
Toggle a task's sub-tasks as done/not-done (experimental feature)
Create a new sub-task on a task (experimental feature)
Delete a task's sub-tasks (experimental feature)
Delete tasks
Delete lists

Significant restrictions

There are significant restrictions because Microsoft don’t currently expose all To Do functionality to app developers. These restrictions include:

No support for the Today View
No support for categories
No support for task reordering

If you are using a corporate account, you may get an error:

Sorry, but we’re having trouble signing you in.
AADSTS650053: The application 'Watch ToDo' asked for scope 'Tasks.Read,Tasks.Read.Shared,Tasks.ReadWrite,Tasks.ReadWrite.Shared,offline_access' that doesn't exist on the resource '00000003-0000-0000-c000-000000000000'. Contact the app vendor.

I am trying to work out if this is a restriction on what is supported by Microsoft.

Contact me at damian@watchtodo.app Or vote and comment on the app Trello Board where you’ll also see what is being worked on and planned.
