You are by far one of the most clear concise and organized explainer/teacher I have run into yet. Thank you for making these videos brother!

[@Simpletivity]

What a wonderful thing to say! Thank you so much for watching and sharing!

[@nandomogollon]

G.Tasks needs Tags and a search bar on tip

[@gemiro1234]

Totally agree

[@user-lf2cw5zl5o]

@@gemiro1234 actaully tags and search are available on Google taskboard. Tags is apremium feature (you can try) while search is free on the board

[@lizamc01]

Wow! This video is worth watching. I like the way you explain how to use Google Tasks. I have already watched other YT video tutorials about GTasks but I struggled when I tried to do it. Great really great 😇👏

[@Simpletivity]

Glad it was helpful!

[@tonypastele3488]

this is very informative video- thank you for sharing all these tips

[@Simpletivity]

You are so welcome!

[@anggon3ag]

Great video! Thank you!

[@Simpletivity]

You are welcome!

[@LeongKokJune]

It's really simple and useful. Thanks.

[@Simpletivity]

You are welcome!

[@robertschuurman]

Do you also have a KZbin tutorial about the Google Task-Keep integration. I get a little bit confused if I should use both or just Tasks of just Keep.

[@Simpletivity]

Stay tuned! Later this year, there will be more integrations between these 2 apps.

[@TheToobNube]

@@Simpletivity What do you know that we don't?

[@AlliedJustin]

I know right, my suspicions have been raised! ​@@TheToobNube

[@Simpletivity]

For one, reminders in Keep will soon sync with Google Tasks and therefore also be reflected on your calendar.

[@TheToobNube]

@@Simpletivity I have been wanting this features for years! Finally!! If you have any more info on timeline, etc. I am all ears. Thank you!!!

[@jessejames4444]

For me a good video, thank you!

[@Simpletivity]

You are welcome! What was your biggest takeaway?

[@gmansi]

Another great and fun video. Thanks! Maybe one about Google Sheets & Calendar integration?

[@sabriilies7424]

Now, somehow you're persuading me to go back to Google Task and quit TikTick. Maybe a short test for a short period will handle this problem. Thank you for the confusion lol.

[@krutarth_suthar]

Good video

[@brandonm22]

Google tasks needs collapsing drop menus for sub tasks

[@billblanchette3604]

Good stuff, I have some tasks that won't let me drag them into a newly created list. One is tied to an email, another is tied to a calendar invite, is that an issue?

[@Dr.AhmedNaguib]

I need subtask I need color coding for each list

[@Simpletivity]

You can add Sub-Tasks here within Tasks. But color-coding for each list is not currently available.

[@vincenthooi1363]

Can I view the G Calendar in a week view but instead of time grids it shows only all the tasks that I have to do in any given day?

[@Simpletivity]

You could do this by selecting Tasks from the Calendar list on the left and then selecting: Display this only.

[@LearnersTank]

awsome

[@CLoSC]

Good video but, dude, how do I access the emoji list?

[@Simpletivity]

If you're a Windows user, just hit Windows Key + . to have the emoji menu appear.

[@rafaelvza]

how you can put an icon ?

[@justingiovanetti]

Is this part of Google suite out of the box, or is this a simplicity thing ?

[@Simpletivity]

Google Tasks is available to all Google users.

[@justingiovanetti]

@@Simpletivity This kanban style interface for Tasks must be something relatively new. Thanks.

[@Simpletivity]

Yes, this full-screen toggle view within Calendar was introduced within the past year.

[@stormcrow1685]

Is it possible to have custom colors for each task list on Google Calendar?

[@Simpletivity]

Sorry, not at this time.

[@RG-jr8ym]

Hi Simpletivity, can i delete my current gmail account and create a new one. Thanks for your time

[@skinnersbollox]

Is there anyway to assign different colours to different task lists in gcal?

[@petepaxton5109]

I've tried just about every note taking app I can get my computer on. Do you know of any app that meets all of this criteria? I can think of one but that's about it. Am I missing one? • Website app • Mobile apps • desktop app • offline access • reminders • syncs well • Nesting and subfolders • reminders to email • email to app • free or low cost • generous note limit

[@pivoune]

Flaw: in reality a task can be of a combination of Important, urgent, fun. that is not represented in your method

[@cocteaufan]

How so? If your task is all three, pop it in any list you like. Star it and you can still do what Scott did in the clip.
