Microsoft To Do alternative
A Microsoft To Do alternative without installing another app
Microsoft To Do is a solid task list — if you live in the Microsoft ecosystem and open the app. Yttrium handles the same everyday stuff by message on WhatsApp, and tracks your bills too.
| What you need to do | Yttrium | Microsoft To Do |
|---|---|---|
| Works inside WhatsApp | No | |
| No app to install | No | |
| Understands audio, photo and PDF | No | |
| Bill tracking with due-date alerts | No | |
| Shopping list that organizes itself | No | |
| Microsoft 365 and Outlook integration | Partial | Better |
Comparison based on the free plans of both, as of September 2026. Microsoft To Do integrates well with Outlook and Teams, and its My Day view is a good way to start the morning.
