Modern experience for Task lists
Half our lists are not normal lists but task lists. Often both normal lists and task lists are combined in themed processes with lookups.
It would be really great if the task lists can also switch to the modern experience. It is getting really annoying now to have a mixture of classic and modern experience within the same site/for a single process. Specially for the end user there is need in consistency. Also to introduce the modern experience properly it is much better when a total site can be changed at once and not only a few apps.

Something has recently changed. The task title is no longer displaying - instead ID_.000.
This is a big issue... workaround to use JSON column format, but it doesn't work for opening nintex forms with multiple content types in the library. Had to revert to classic. When the title was still intact we could at least tell people to right click Open/Edit etc... but without title, there is no reasonable way to use the modern UI. -

The problem we are having now with the ID showing instead of the name of the task is sort of getting lost in the comments.
I created a new idea here: https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/forums/329214-sites-and-collaboration/suggestions/38273221-fix-task-list-showing-id-instead-of-task-name-in-m
Please vote for this too.

My task list displayed views fine in modern view but recently something corrupted the way task names are displayed.

We used the task timeline on a classic experience template for project sites. We would like to update but our users love the timeline and there is no replacement. As a large enterprise we do not want to create a new Group for every project - especially because each Group brings a lot of other infrastructure besides Planner. Please allow us to include tasks and timelines in the modern experience.

Yes, we are experiencing this as well. We have moved forward with Sharepoint as our project management tool and now that may fall apart due to this issue.

Hello, can you fix this ! It's very important fos us to use the task list.
The name of the task is 0_.000 and we can't use the filter. -

What are you waiting for to fix this? It has been ages and still we can not use modern view and task list together. How are you expecting us to convince our customers about the capabilities of SharePoint? You guys can't even fix this. Disappointing.

Please fix this.... It is annoying that I need to create workarounds to get a task-list to view properly in Modern UI

It is for mee a huge issue and very annoying. I am creating task lists, and I would very much like to use modern UI, column formatting and so on together with custom columns.

Seems telling that MSFT haven't responded saying this - incredibly important element- is being investigated. I'm guessing they see a future around Planner and Project Online, not the awesome SP Task List with Gantt view.

I agree. We utilize task lists for a number of business processes here and we need to be able to accommodate that need in the modern experience. We utilize these lists with alerts and views and some processes will break if we don't solve for this.

Agreed, I like having the timeline view of my linked project plan with milestone tasks at the top of my home page to allow visitors to quickly and easily see progress. I'm now going to have to revert back to the classic view until this is resolved, very frustrating.

As a developer I am promoting the Modern experience in our organization, however, it is frustrating when not all SharePoinit functions work in the Modern View. Specifically Tasks. This of all functions should be prioritized high as it deals with team members completing a task and often in our organization time to complete a task is taken into consideration. So, any additional deals in completing a Task is seen as a negative and makes the promotion of Modern Views much more challenging. Please consider making this function of high importance. Thank you.

This is most annoying, that a core app type is still not supported in the new UI after all this time. Is there an planned rollout for Task list UI?
