When I open MS to Do app and open whether it is an email flagged or a task from my planner in teams when I try to open it, it opens in the web-based instead of the desktop. Am I missing a connector to my desktop or something?

Wow, over 3 years later and still the same problem. Good to know the fix isn't coming anytime soon I guess. Add my voice to the list of people who think it's silly that this is an issue.
Still facing the same issue
Organizations don't necessarily have web mail enabled. I use the web client for my personal email sometimes, but it would not be suitable for work. Seems like once a year I get excited about using To Do and then rediscover why I don't. Using the first bit of an email to search for it in Outlook is cumbersome.
I understand the fix is difficult, but people are not going to stop using the thick client no matter how much you want them to.
Did you find another app that communicates with Outlook desktop?
Still awaiting for ... i don't think this is very hard to change it ..
