Thanks so much. This prompted me to start using Tasks and get rid of a half dozen pieces of paper with task lists on them. Now my tasks are organized. You do a fantastic job of teaching!👍👍👍👍

Good presentation. Google Tasks has a glaring omission, the ability to search for a task(s). This searching omission affects the PC and our Android Mobile app; Tasks cannot be searched. The ability to search within Task is particularly important, especially as one uses Tasks to become more organized and work on more projects.

The feature I like the most is the fact that it integrates with google calendar and I can view the time-specific tasks on calendar. I also like the fact that I can drag tasks unto a calendar slot to set a time for the task on desktop. 2 things I don't like and would love to see added: I wish I can see tasks due today in a separate smart 'today' list, even if the tasks belong to different lists. I know this shows in calendar at the top as all day tasks. But on calendar, I'm not able to sort them in the order I would like to execute. Second, I would love task to have the same colour coding capability that calendar has. When my tasks show on calendar, I want to be able to colour code the lists they belong to.

Hope they can add an Auto "ALL List" combining all the lists made. Btw, you make great easy to digest videos- Thank you 😊

I started using Google Tasks about a month ago. I love the app and it’s simplicity. Works well as my reminders app.

[michaelsih]

Thanks, this was very helpful. I was just forced to Google Tasks from Google Reminders and I preferred the simplicity and function of Reminders. I'm not sure why Google felt that they had to turn off Reminders.

[ismailmohammed]

You convinced me to stay with Google task. I am always confused about which time management tool to use but it's in front of me everyday. With Google calendar and tasks I really have all that I need. Thank you for your video. I'll be watching more for more tips.

[andyvarella]

Awesome tutorial Tasia. Thanks. I like the simplicity and integration with the other Google tools.

[carolinalarottadratva]

Thank you! This is great, and you are a great and clear teacher!

[WendyWK]

Many thanks for this concise/helpful video, Tasia! I just got a new job at a private school... my predecessor had used Outlook for task management... but my work platform is Google Workspace and you helped me see the benefits to decide to just use Google tasks - I don't need any system more complex! Best tip was dragging email to task list : )

[chrislockwood]

I agree with some of the suggestions by others: have a way to show all tasks together, and have a way to print your separate lists. thanks

[KlausMueller]

Hi Tasia,
Google Tasks has been around for a long time.
I just took the time today to take a closer look at it and only got to know its full potential through your video.
Thanks. This is a really handy tool

[carradale]

Love your teaching style -very informative and easy to follow. Thank you

[JamesMcNeillmcneilmortgages]

Great writing. Just the right amount of "cheese":) Thanks for the tips. I saving this one.

[lorraineattard]

I rather reminders because you can change the repetition of the reminder. E.g. if you repeat a reminder weekly and you change it, it will change all the reminders but task, the repeated reminders will stay

[ryanculverwell]

Hey Tasia, thank you for the great video. Pro tip: to add an open email to a new task, the keyboard shortcut is - shift t.
