Apple is infamous for keeping their users in a closed ecosystem.

With iOS 13, Apple has completely revamped the Reminders app on the iPhone.

And while the app is natively available on macOS, the same isnt true for Windows.

It can be useful for those using iPhone and Windows simultaneously.

Use iCloud Web

Apple offers a centralized iCloud experience on the web.

Tap on Reminders, and it will open up the web version of Reminders with created lists on iCloud.

Tasks

From here, one can add or complete new tasks, and add notes to a task.

The web version is strictly limited to viewing and completing tasks.

Use iCloud App on Windows

Last year, Apple made the iTunes app available on Windows Store.

Now, the company is offering an iCloud app on Windows.

Users can also download the iCloud app from the web.

After setting up the service, bring up the iCloud app, and sign in using Apple account credentials.

Tasks

Lets stick with iCloud Tasks for the moment.

After a successful sync, launch the Outlook app on Windows.

iCloud will create a separate iCloud account under the Tasks menu inMicrosoft Outlook.

Tasks

From the left menu, tap on the three-dot button, and launch the Tasks section.

You will find Outlook Tasks as well as iCloud Tasks with lists.

This solution is more functional than the above web version.

Tasks

The iCloud app directly integrates with the default file manager on Windows.

From there, one can access all the iCloud files, including photos, iWork files, and folders.

Users can add a folder and files to sync them to Apples cloud services.

There are a couple of ways to access those Outlook tasks on Windows.

But, I have even a better way to manage them.

It works two-way with Microsoft account in the center.
