I had Microsoft 365 at one time with another ID, but I let that lapse, and I still need to sign up with my current ID, so I’m not exactly sure why my status is with Microsoft 365 and the account I’m using now. I do have a free Microsoft account that I’m using now. That’s why I’m saying people should check their own milage because I can’t say for sure what you get with the free Microsoft account. There are some features that integrate with Microsoft 365 applications, like the task list in Outlook, but if you have Microsoft 365 then you’ll get those features and if you don’t then you won’t be interested in them. Bottom line is that I’m pretty sure Microsoft To Do is a perfectly usable stand alone to do list app, and I still encourage people to check it out for themselves if they’re looking for a to do list app.
BTW, here’s what it says in the App Store including the end where it let’s you know what you get with MS 365 integration. The direct URL is at https://apps.apple.com/us/app/microsoft-to-do/id1212616790 Description Create to do lists, reminders, and notes for any purpose.

Do you have Microsoft 365? If so, you will get all features of the app. I have Microsoft 365 so I cannot speak to whether some features are unavailable without having a subscription to Microsoft 365. I suspect you need to at least create a free Microsoft account, or is that not true. Again, I have all that so I cannot test it as if I didn’t without logging out of my account and I just am too lazy right now to do that.

If anyone’s interested, I’d suggest checking this out yourselves, since I use the Microsoft To Do application on my desktop and the To Do app on my iPhone, and I’m not running into any limitations that I can see. Not only that, but I find it to be the best to do list I’ve ever used. I find it very powerful and yet intuitive and simple to use. It’s the only to do list tool I’ve ever stuck with for these reasons. Like I said, if you’re interested, it’s a free download and you may get more mileage out of it then Simon does. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Outlook From: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> <viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com>> On Behalf Of Simon A Fogarty Sent: Sunday, July 4, 2021 6:56 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: RE: Free Calendar App?

If you haven't already, you might want to give Google Calendar a spin. They put effort into making their software accessible. Microsoft has a free app called Microsoft To Do but that's more for task management. There are tons of calendar apps and there may be accessible ones undiscovered by blind people. However, the only ones I know about are paid apps. Google Calendar is likely the best bet for something accessible and totally free. On Sat, Jul 3, 2021 at 7:59 AM K.

I find the regular Calendar app unbearably cumbersome, especially for adding events; just creating a single event can take several minutes.
