How can we make Microsoft Teams better?

Integrate tasks in planner with Outlook Tasks & Calendar

Every time you create a task in planner via Microsoft Teams and assign it to someone in your organisation/team it would be nice to see that task in outlook as well. I want to know and to be alerted that I have a task assigned to me without having to lon on to Microsoft Teams.
It would be great to have a place to see how many tasks have been created in a team/channel and the status of each one.

    Could the task list be a column within the Teams and Outlook Calendar. It'd be great to see my meetings and tasks (completed and to-do) in one space.

    The obvious place to synchronize a Planner task would be into the Outlook tasks. But in Q1 of this year, Microsoft announced that Planner tasks can be added to the Outlook calendar as an iCalendar feed. The feature is enabled by default as it gets rolled out to Office 365 tenants.

    Please add flagged Outlook email to tasks, so we don't have to retype tasks that are detailed in an email. We just need email Subject = Task name. Date assigned = date email was sent. All other fields can be filled in by the user, as needed. Thanks!

    Teams you can see your calendar like in outlook but it doesn’t show your ‘tasks’ in outlook for those of us that track our daily work in outlook in tasks Is there a task plug in we can have added so we have full functionality similar to Outlook for tasks

    What is the latest on this please? I have been patiently waiting for this one and expected this to release in July but so far no news!!! :(.

    When I add a task, it allows me to assign and set a date. It would also be nice to have the "radio" button for priority as easy access.

    If you can integrate Tasks within Teams and map tasks to each teams. The interface of the tasks needs to be integrated within Teams application, so there is no need to open Outlook.
