ToDo by Microsoft
OneNote by Microsoft - in MS-Office
- OneNote (MS)
- Microsoft OneNote | The digital note-taking app for your devices - $0 - Microsoft also has a tool that allows you to import your Evernote content directly into OneNote.
- Loop | How to Get Organized With Ease Thanks to Microsoft Loop
  - OneNote is a "digital notebook," which essentially means that this app is for your note-taking first and these notes can be shared. A OneNote notebook can be shared with others, but that is not its sole intention.
  - Loop, on the other hand, is specifically designed with the purpose of collaborating and making plans with teams as its first use-case.

- Undo / Undelete content
  - Impossible to "undelete" on a mobile device. You must go back to your office and log into your PC.
  - Ctrl-Z does not work. There is no "Undelete" option anywhere.
  - Convoluted and stupid method when using the Evernote app on a PC.
    - Select the note that lost the content > Click on the three dots (...) in the top right corner of the app's window > Note history > Make a guess as to the date and time the content was deleted > Restore
- Export data / Backup
  - How to move your notes out of Evernote - The Verge
    - Note: you can only export data using the Evernote local application for PCs or Macs; you can’t do it from the web or mobile versions.
    - In current versions of Evernote (version 10 and up), you can only export 100 notebooks at a time.
      On the other hand, if you export notebook by notebook, you can export all the notes in each notebook and keep your notes organized (if you just export all the notes, you lose that organization).
  - Very difficult to successfully export from Evernote and import to OneNote. See OneNote comments about Evernote2OneNote (below).

My Wish List for a ToDo App
- Works with Windows, iOS (iPhone, iPad), Android, Web browser
- Automatic sync to all devices
- Priorities
  - I don't want to have the same item on several lists. I want it to automatically be just on the list I need.
  - If you mark the item as Priority-1, it will move to the Priority-1 todo list.
    - If you mark the item as Priority-2, it will move to the Priority-2 todo list.
  - Sort by due date, etc.
- rich text format (like Word or WordPad) - i.e. bullets, fonts, styles, etc.
