Microsoft Planner

doubtful rating

Microsoft Planner works well in the browser as part of Microsoft 365, but the mobile app is weak: slow, does not save filters, shows no content without a connection, and is unavailable for personal accounts. It is more of a viewer for workers already embedded in the M365 ecosystem.

About the rating

Store rating 4.64 with a text average of 2.67, one of the largest gaps in the set. 12 positive versus 12 negative and 16 neutral reviews, with the positives often about the web version, not the app. Corporate users may be pressured to rate without a real choice.

Strengths

What users love

  • Integrates well with Teams and Outlook for those already in the Microsoft ecosystem. A Kanban board lets teams track task status without extra tools.
Weak spots

What users hate

  • The mobile app does not cache data and is useless without internet. Filters and groupings reset every time the app is opened. Requires a corporate Microsoft 365 account: unavailable for personal accounts.

Who it is for

Teams inside a corporate Microsoft 365 ecosystem who want to quickly check task status from a phone, while doing real work on a computer.
