In 2015 Microsoft acquired the famous and most lovable task management application named[1] “Wunderlist” for a massive 200 Million Dollars. The objective of this acquisition was to establish Microsoft’s name as the best task management application provider. In pursuance of its determined vision, Microsoft finally launched[2] “Microsoft ToDo” in 2017 with features that resembled a lot with Wunderlist. However, it also declared in 2019 that the Wunderlist app would be completely discontinued until “Microsoft ToDo” incorporates all its features. Which forced the Wunderlist creator[3] “Christian Reber” to buy back his application from Microsoft by making a serious undisclosed offer of which no reply has been received from Microsoft yet.
