Microsoft is increasing the numbers of colours and labels you can use in Tasks in Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Planner.

“More labels allows for greater flexibility when organizing tasks. Use labels to flag risks, signal delays, help fine tune task prioritization, clarify accountabilities, or categorize tasks around a theme spanning multiple buckets,” Microsoft notes.
