Altered checklist in Tasks by Planner and To do

Question

When I create a task in Task by Planner and To do, I can create the task fine, but when I try and create a checklist within the task, I place them in the order of completion, but for some reason as I add more and more items to the checklist the items rearrange themselves, and when I manually try to rearrange them back it won't let me and rearranges them again. Why is this happening?

Hi @Brad Noss (ETS CHX US)

Based on testing, when creating a task in Planner in Teams and creating a checklist, the checklist can get shuffled out of order. However, after the order is disturbed, you can exit the creation and enter again, and the order will be restored.

If you want to create the checklist in order, please create it in the To Do app in M365, the checklist created here will always keep the order.
