Microsoft Planner in Microsoft Loop: Top 5 things you can do with it

Remember when we reported that Microsoft was bringing Microsoft Planner integration into its Loop productivity app a while back?

The good news is, that this very feature is super lightweight and finally available, starting at the end of September 2023! 

Loop, now available for public preview, is synced across Microsoft 365 apps like Microsoft To Do, Microsoft Planner, and the Tasks app in Teams, making task management while collaborating easier than ever.

What can you do with it though, you may ask? Here’s what.
