Google Tasks review and pricing

Free with Google Workspace; embedded in Gmail and Calendar.

By Google LLC · Founded 2018 · Mountain View, CA · public

Google Tasks is the lightweight task list embedded inside Gmail and Google Calendar. For Google Workspace and personal Gmail users, it is free, syncs across web, iOS, and Android, and lets you drag emails directly into tasks. It is deliberately minimal — no labels, no priority levels, no projects, no integrations beyond Google's own surfaces. Trade-offs: feature set lags every other product on this list, and Google has historically deprioritized the product (a separate Google Reminders coexisted for years before consolidation).

Vendor Trust is scored independently of product quality. A great product from an unfair vendor still earns a low trust score.
