Google Tasks
Google Tasks is a basic task list service provided by Google. Google Tasks can be accessed from GMail, Google Calendar, or a variety of third party clients.
Tasks can synchronize a portion of its data through Google Tasks. Given the limited amount of information supported by Google Tasks you will only be able to synchronize the following:
- Title
- Due date (without time of day)
- Description
No other data can be synchronized through Google Tasks
Please note: Tasks.org will be flagged in your Google Security Checkup because I am an unverified developer. Unfortunately it costs approximately $15,000-75,000 USD to get verified, so this situation is unlikely to change.
Recurrence, reminders, and due timesā
Recurrence, reminders, and due times were added to the Google Tasks service in early 2019. Unfortunately the third-party Google Tasks API did not receive a similar update, so this data is not available to third-party clients like Tasks.
