A half-decade later, Google finally made a decent to-do list app.

For years, Google’s to-do list app Tasks was poorly integrated and underdeveloped. Recently, Google has combined all their reminder products into a single Google Tasks app that is accessible across Google products. While still lacking some advanced features, Google Tasks’ simplicity and integration make it easy to add tasks and see reminders across Gmail, Calendar and Assistant. The author enjoys being able to say “What are my tasks today?” to Assistant and have tasks show up in Calendar. However, the author notes that Tasks still does not integrate well with multiple Google accounts.

I really like Tasks.org.

Does this one allow you to share lists with friends, by chance?

Eh, it has a share button but all it does is copy the task title and whether it’s complete or not. No due date/time or any other information.

Thanks! I didn’t know about it. I like that is open source. I’d have to look into how to sync it with my computer.
