Google Tasks
Google's to-do list, built into Gmail, Calendar, Chat and Docs

What is Google Tasks?
Google Tasks is Google's to-do list for the web, Android and iOS. Tasks are kept in lists with subtasks, stars, dates and repeat rules, and any task with a date shows up on Google Calendar. It opens in the side panel of Gmail, Calendar, Chat and Drive, and the mobile apps are free. Assigning tasks from a Google Doc is marked as a premium feature for some Google Workspace Business and Enterprise plans.
Google Tasks has a free plan. Paid plans start at $7 per user / month with a 1-year commitment (Workspace Business Starter). See every plan

Key features
- Tasks on Google Calendar
- A task with a date and time appears on Google Calendar and triggers a reminder. A duration can be added and the time marked as busy.
- Tasks from Gmail
- An email can be turned into a task without leaving Gmail, and the task links back to the original message.
- Lists, subtasks and stars
- Separate lists hold different projects or topics. Larger tasks break down into subtasks, tasks reorder by drag and drop, and stars mark the important ones.
- Repeating tasks and nudges
- Tasks can repeat daily, weekly, monthly or annually. Nudges keep surfacing a reminder until the task is completed.
- Shared tasks in Chat and Docs
- Tasks can be assigned to teammates in a Google Chat space. Assigning from a Google Doc needs a work or school account on an eligible Workspace plan.
- Gemini and the Tasks API
- The Gemini app can add, edit and show tasks on request. Developers can read and update tasks through a REST API or automate them with Apps Script.
