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’ve had Pixels since the first one, this is news to me.
Edit: Just went looking for it, not installed. It’s in the play store but not sure how it could be unavoidable when it’s not pre-installed.
It’s also integrated with Gmail on the web, so maybe they’re assuming everyone has noticed.
Sorta same. Pixel 7 here and it’s my first non-apple/samsung phone so I messed around a lot on it discovering features and I didn’t know about tasks. I knew you could set reminders in the calendar but I honestly thought it was a calendar-specific thing
