How to use Google Tasks 101
Google Tasks lets you create a to-do list within your desktop Gmail or the Google Tasks app. When you add a task, you can integrate it into your Gmail calendar, and add details or subtasks. With the updated Gmail design, Google Tasks is sleeker and easier to incorporate into your work routine
Go your mail.google.com screen (Gmail) and click on the Tasks Icon on the side bar
If this is your first time opening up tasks you will receive a message, hit Get Started
To add an email as a task, open up an email and click on the Tasks icon at the top
Your email will be added as a task to the task sidebar
From this screen you can rename the task as well as add additional details and add a Date/Time stamp to the Task. There is also a hyperlink to the email in the task
You can also sort the task list by name or by due date by clicking on the three vertical buttons next to “Add a Task”
You can also just add a Task without adding an email. You can click on Add a Task, give it a name, some detail, due date
You can also add your tasks to your Google Calendar by going to calendar.google.com and scrolling to your My Calendar section on the left hand side. Find Tasks and make sure the checkbox is next to it. You will see your tasks in that color at the top of the day.
