Microsoft's help pages list the calendar alongside To Do, so events and tasks can be managed side by side. Copilot assistance is available inside Outlook.\n\nOutlook is most useful when your email also runs through it, because the calendar is tied to the mailbox. Compared with standalone calendar apps such as Fantastical, it does more mail work and less calendar-only polish. The web version at Outlook.com is free with a Microsoft account, and desktop features depend on the account and plan."
