Google Calendar for Android is receiving a significant update, integrating a more comprehensive Google Tasks experience. This enhancement aims to streamline task management and organization directly within the Calendar app.
Key Features:
- Full-screen view of all tasks and task lists within Google Calendar.
- Access to tasks with or without due dates.
- New Tasks icon in the top bar for easy access.
This update mirrors the Tasks functionality introduced last year on the Google Calendar website (calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r/tasks and tasks.google.com) and aims to improve task management, especially for users on the go. The recent Google Tasks redesign, which simplified the app's interface, likely paved the way for this integration. While the standalone Google Tasks app remains available, this update provides a more unified experience within Google Calendar. The rollout is expected over the next few weeks, exclusively for Android. For more on Google Calendar, check out updates on Gmail's Gemini integration.
