Sort Plans in Planner hub
Groups are automatically sorted when browsing Groups. Add drag/drop or alphabetical sort to Planner Hub, or at least default sort them alphabetically.

Dark Mode for Planner web view
Dark Mode for Planner web view. Currently other Office365 apps support it (OWA Outlook, Teams etc). But Planner is only available as plain white. I would like to see either different themes that also change the background to darker colors or just full Dark Mode like other Office365 web apps have.

Add Planner Hub icon to the Outlook Group menu
Most of the Office Planner features are available via the Group tab in Outlook with one major exception - an option to access the Planner Hub. To view this you have to use the O365 Planner app or go to tasks.office.com. Having it available directly from within Outlook would be a great enhancement!

Grouping Plans
As the Manager of a department I would like to group plans e.g. by department
This would allow the MD or Exec Team to then see what the business is working on by group/department.
Groups would then have admin members, working members e.g. Marketing Team and view only members e.g. Directors

Add ability to group Plans on the Panner Hub
Need to add the ability to group Plans on the Planner Hub. Currently there is an All Plans and Favorite Plans group but it would be nice to be able to create other user-defined groups for Plans as well to better organize the Plans.

Hub for managers and reporting
As a manager I'd like filters in the Hub so that I can view activity at a Member level so I can monitor individual performance and Programme level (all plans). I need the birds eye view. Having the ability to export to CSV or PDF for reporting purposes would also be very useful for management reports or proactive email prompts to groups

Unique Identifier for each Task
Hi there,
I would greatly appreciate for a unique identifier to be assigned to each task as it is created. This helps to accurately identify tasks and to easily link tasks to one another amongst other benefits. This also includes the ability to actually link tasks. Thank you for the consideration on deploying this.57 votes -

Add an Archive icon within the Hub and allow a completed plan to be dragged into this to archive it.
We really need a way to archive plans that have ended. This could be achieved through the Hub where dragging a plan into the archive section would automatically archive it.

Create folders for plans
It'd be nice to be able to sort plans into bigger "buckets" -similar to the way we sort and keep track of files in windows. Finished plans could go in the "Finished" bucket, plans that get cancelled or postponed could be put in their own buckets as well. I guess it'd be nice to sort plans by status: New, In Progress, finished, etc.

Allow Microsoft Teams to select/attach an Existing Microsoft Plan
We've been using Microsoft Planner for a while and are just starting to look at Microsoft Teams. We were trying to attach a Plan to a channel but realized Teams only wants to create a new Plan everytime. That isn't logical.
We should also be able to attach more than one Plan to an existing Channel.
