Literally, everything reminder or task-based ought to be in Tasks because, well, it’s called Tasks. I have to admit though, I think the essence of this change is that no one was visiting Assistant reminders (did you honestly remember that the page even existed?) and making Calendar reminders go to Assistant’s reminders page was just the relic of a bygone initiative to shove everything into Google’s Assistant PWA. Oh, and here’s the best part – any time you tell Assistant “Hey Google, Remind me to…” followed by something you’d like to remember or need to do later, it will plop information directly into the Google Tasks app as well! The big takeaway from this announcement is that Google wants to renew its focus on making productivity effortless by combining all of its initiatives that were previously confusing and all over the place.īeing able to add tasks with just your voice makes it a breeze to brain dump at the start of each day or while you’re driving, and I’m all for that. Once the migration takes place and all of your tasks are housed in one location, you’ll not only be able to add new to-do items directly in the app and via Gmail but any reminders added via Calendar will be stored there as well instead of in Google Assistant. Ilya Brown, the Vice President of Product Management for Google Workspace This means you will now have an easy way to view and manage all your to-dos in one place through Google Tasks, regardless of whether you create them using Assistant or Calendar. Soon, we’ll be simplifying our task management solutions by migrating Assistant and Calendar Reminders to Google Tasks. Millions of people use Google to help them stay on top of their everyday to-dos across Google Assistant, Calendar and Tasks.
