Increasing character limit for to do items in Microsoft To Do

Hi @Annie Roberts

Currently, the character limit for to-do items in Microsoft To Do is 255 characters. Unfortunately, there is no way to increase this limit directly in the app.

If you need to write something longer, here are a few options to consider:

• Split tasks: Break long tasks into multiple smaller tasks.
• Use notes: Add more details in the notes section of a task.
• Link to documents: Add links in tasks to documents or notes that contain more information.

If you would like this feature to be added, please submit feedback in Microsoft Feedback. Many features of our current products are designed and upgraded based on customers’ feedback. With requirements like this increase, the problem may well be released in the future.

Thanks for your understanding and support.
