Why is not anyone from Microsoft giving us a reply?

If this were increased it would greatly help in our migration from Trello to Planner.

I don't know what people are moaning about - there's never been a single project that required more than 20 steps! ;) Microsoft leading the way in productivity...

I need at least 100 checklist lines. 20 is not even enough to start a project. Is there something about this hurdle that is making this too difficult for you?

20 items in the checklist is absolutely unacceptable! Makes the tool useless for most projects

Please remove the 20 limit AND/OR implement multiple checklists. Trying to convince staff that this is a credible alternative is challenging as Trello is still winning!

Oh, I had such a great idea to replace some of our paper checklists. Planned to use one card per checklist. So sad limited to 20 items. Please remove limit. and / or allow multiple checklists. This was going to be such an elegant solution to such a 1980's problem.

Please! Increase this limit. This is a showstopper for using this tool and we are currently migrating all our users at BMW to Teams / Planner!

Experienced the same problem today: either increase the limit or allow multiple check lists within a plan, please (https://planner.uservoice.com/forums/330525-microsoft-planner-feedback-forum/suggestions/33993577-allow-multiple-checklists-due-dates-per-checklist).

Disappointed to find out there's a maximum limit ... if at all possible, it would be helpful to have unlimited items in a checklist.

Hello,
Is there a plan to increase the limit of the checklist? Please update.

Needs increasing - we end up making multiple tasks just because the checklist is limited...

We just started using Planner for the purpose of de-provisioning departed users. MS Planner lends itself well to all the steps needed to secure and deactivate accounts in Office 365 and AD, etc. etc.
We create a task per former employee and then add checklist items for all the "sub tasks" that need to be accomplished over a period of time. Unfortunately, as we tried to setup all the checklist items that need to be done, there were more than 20.
When I tired to put int the 21st item, I was deeply disappointed that this Kanban like tool was limited to 20 checklist items. Why?
We would like to make the most of our investment in the Office 365 environment, but when we run into limitations like this, it forces us to use other third party tools like Kanbanflow. I don't think I have ever run across a Kanban like tool that has limitations like Planner does. Kanbanflow seems to allow unlimited subtasks, which are akin to checklist items in a Planner task. Come one Microsoft, don't force us to move away from your tools!
