Add new progress descriptions
The progress descriptions are too simple. You should be able to create new ones, like planning, design, testing etc.

Increase the amount of the "progress" labels too!
in my case we need something like:
"Started" - "In progress" - "Pending Review" - "Reviewed" - "Completed" -

Microsoft any feedback to this suggestion from Jun 2016 ?

Same as labels - progress should be configurable. You would think an organisation the size of microsoft would have the wherewithal to do that.

Nobody does agree with the needed status but we DO need new status OR at minimum, instead of REVIEW, the possibility to highlight a task recently updated (instead, we're using OUTLOOK for sending a message to the associated Teams channel address for this stuff)..

"Under Review" OR "Review" option is highly desirable.

Take a look at how YouTrack does it, for a really good reference. We use YouTrack for client software development and the ability to define custom status is golden.

This would be an awesome feature! I ran into this today, where I would like to indicate that the task is waiting on an end user. Icons should also be selectable / customizeable.

There should be a way (possibly in settings ) to add the progress options desired. It should be more configurable.

Dans les statuts de progression il faudrait rajouter les choix suivants :
- En attente (on hold)
- Annulé (canceled) -

Make progress options editable per plan, the current limitation leads to re-implementation of a workflow through use of buckets or labels - making Planner as a tool less intuitive for our larger organization. Trying to move from Version1 to achieve a greater transparency and co-operation within the company (where everyone is present at the O365 platform) - but this progress state limitation is really a weak point introducing pain for several stakeholders.
