    I use Tasks for all the reasons you mentioned. I tried other To Do apps but the simplicity of Tasks and the interaction with other Google apps (calendar, Gmail) is very useful. And it is free... The only problem is, when you create a task without a due date, it appears beneath all the tasks with a due date; it means at the bottom of your screen or even lower.

    • @parkourzian
      @parkourzian Рік тому +3

      I'd think it is normal and a logical arrangement. Any task without a specific date for execution or deadline would mean it can be done anytime, or it can just be an idea which one may choose not to execute, hence should be at lower priority.

    Any way to fix the below pain points? I much prefer Reminders, my use case is tasks that can roll daily and I finish them whenever I have time. I manage this all only through GCal. Raise date is not important, nor a specific deadline.
    Pain points for tasks:
    - Clutters my view as tasks appear on the day I add them and not one list on the current day like Reminders
    - Completing a task closes it on the day I raised it, not the day I completed it like Reminders
    - Tasks over 30 days overdue essentially disappear, and you have to hunt back for the day you raised them

    • @KiwiGran1
      @KiwiGran1 Рік тому

      Google have changed how it works. Now we have a Tasks Calendar and if we add a task it must have a to-do date or it won't appear on the Tasks Calendar. Back to pencil and paper for me - not much use if I just want a list of stuff that I intend to do but don't have dates for.
      I've found a Google Tasks app in the Google Play Store. When I opened it I found all the tasks I'd created on the list that used to be attached to my calendar, including the ones without dates. Unfortunately, this app won't work on with Windows, just Android or Apple.

    • @shufflezoneRR
      @shufflezoneRR 2 роки тому +1

      I am also wondering myself. I did not find this option on Android, but you can do it on PC. You need to have Google Tasks added to your items. Go to main task list and you will see 6 dots on the right side when hovering the mouse over, then click and drag on the position you want it to be. Hope it helps.

    I like GTasks but I wish it had alphabetical sorting and let you duplicate tasks and lists. I was hoping to use it for simple shopping lists but it's too unwieldy without these features.

    • @Budaeku
      @Budaeku 2 роки тому +2

      Hmm I don't see how those features would be too helpful for a shopping list really. You could just have a dedicated groceries list or make it a task and add the items as subtasks. If you want to easily re-add common items, you can view all completed tasks for a list and re-add a completed item with one click.

      @@maikaimakena9424 I don't think it's possible to do that. Besides, they have pretty different features. Keeps is best for quick notes about a topic and can use pictures, lists, drawings, links, and voice notes. Tasks is best as a todo list, because lets you restore completed tasks, add subtasks, and scheduled tasks will also appear on the calendar.

I've literally taken various days over the last 2 years revisiting this idea and can never find anything that works. Always fail, and don't interact with Android correctly.
