Google Tasks Task Scheduler - now on smartphones too

In parallel with the redesign of Gmail, developers presented a mobile application for the Google Tasks service for Android and iOS. The scheduler is created in the style of Material Design 2.

What can he do?

Google Tasks for smartphones allows you to create tasks, add descriptions to them and smaller subtasks with your comments. You can create to-do lists and rename existing ones. Sort by date or by simple dragging the important up ("in my order"). For Tasks, you can not set the exact time of the reminder-only the date, although there is such an option in the Google Keep notes.

The service is integrated into the new Gmail web interface. In the browser version, even more features, for example, you can cancel the task and return it back to the list. In the mobile client, even an accidentally placed tick will be irreversible (most likely, this fix will be fixed in the updates). In Tasks you can send letters, but this is not the full text, but a link (the transition to the message is only available in Gmail on desktops). Google Tasks also syncs with Google Calendar, albeit with reservations. Tasks are displayed on the Calendar site, but only the application on the smartphone does not know anything about it.

By the way, the web version of Google Tasks still looks like a greeting from the past. The search giant was clearly in a hurry with the launch of the renewed service. In the application I would like to see repetitive tasks, support for attachments, flexible notification settings, common to-do lists for workgroups and at least some widget on the desktop. All this now is not present.

The Google Tasks Mobile client is already available for download on Google Play and the Apple App Store .
