Set reminders on conversations and replies within a conversation.
Problem: You create a conversation to do something (such as create a new icon) and the team member responds they will get to it later, but there is no way to go back to see what conversations require follow up.
Possible solution: set reminders on a conversation or a reply within a conversation for individual team members or the whole team with a certain date or time.

Why not add the ability to create a Planner Task from a conversation or reply; via More Options/More Actions.
Currently I notice you can create a Poll from a conversation - would be great if you could also Add Planner -

I set reminders on outlook conversations all the time, because I want to make sure the person I emailed follows up with me. I realized today that is one of the main reasons I have such a hard time keeping track of conversations in teams.
Where did that request get made, was it a conversation or a post? What did I say that I can search on.. That didn't work. Let me check 3-4 chat's and channels and see if i can find it. Ugh
If only I had sent an email and tagged it for follow up and created a reminder!

We need a native reminder function (something similar to the "@RememberThis" bot, but expanded) - Needs to have local timezone support, infinite reminders (not limited to 7 days in the future), recurring reminders, and ability to remind self, channel or team - @Remind Me in 3 hours, @Remind Channel at 7:00 am MDT, @Remind Team on Jan 31 at 9:00 am LocalTime

We desperately need the ability to set reminders/flag for later messages in conversations tabs - and the ability to do it as many times as we need in a conversation. Add to Tasks, Add to Planner, Flag for Later... any of the basic Outlook functions!

Integrate this idea with Planner?

This would be an awesome feature. I was going to suggest a 'for action' marker (like the High Importance marker) that could later be marked as complete. Adding a reminder/deadline feature would be even better.

This would be a critical feature.

Perhaps there should be a "flag for follow-up" option on a message?
Or perhaps...have an option on a message to create a planner task from it?
Tell me if you think those are dumb ideas Justin...I don't mind :)
