With the others, I found myself tinkering with the settings more than getting things done. GQueues beats them all in the perfect balance of being feature rich, ease of use, and simplicity. LOVE GQueues!! I've tried them all: Remember the Milk, Toodledo, Nozbe, Google Tasks, Good Todo, SmartyTasks, and others. Calendar integration is limited to only one calendar and two-way usage isn't completely seamless. I've notice a bit of bug with contacts integration. Updates occur often and are mostly based on suggestions & feedback from the small but lively discussion group. ~ custom mark-up can be added in Quick Add to add detail, or this can be done after.Īlthough the product is great, there is still room for improvement. ~ Now in GQueues > Quick Add > paste the text > done. ~ From Google Tasks > choose a list > actions: email list > copy the list of tasks To migrate from Google Tasks to GQueues (notes, related emails, indents & dates are not preserved): Features like the quick add box are brilliant once you get used to a few of the keyboard shortcuts and mark-up. The rich functionality (nested, date & recurring, tags, collaboration & sharing, keyboard shortcuts, reminders, settings) doesn't cloud the simplicity - meaning it can be used equally well for shopping lists and/or project management. Styling, as you would except Google to do themselves, make it quick & intuitive to use. It's like the developer (I believe it's mostly just a guy named Cameron) read all the web chatter about what Tasks was missing and just went for it. from regular queues, it is super fast to add tasksĪ well considered elaborated version of Google's own Tasks. There are some cons compared to the regular queues (like simply adding a task is more intensive), but it works! The only queue I really use is a smart queue that displays all tasks with a date of today or earlier. So you may be able to make it do what you need it to do (<- get it? lol)-like I have. Thankfully, Gqueues is also very configurable with its filter-building tool. This approach is not ideal for me as I rely heavily on the ability to schedule tasks in the future and have my todo app automatically display them in my main "working" list on the schedule dates (which to me is a "start" date I don't use due dates). For example, there are no priorities on tasks and the emphasis is on manually sorting tasks (which it does really well) and having numerous lists (queues) of tasks. Mind you, it starts with a particular approach for task management, so it's possible it might not be your cup of tea (this is true for almost all todo apps, so it's not really a negative, comparatively). So big props to Gqueues for providing 2-way sync that works really well.Īfter that big accomplishment, the todo app itself is top notch and robust. Especially considering that Google refreshes these calendar feeds about only once a day, it is useless way to manage tasks. Most other-even top notch-todo apps only provide a calendar feed for Google to display. Firstly, this is just about the only todo app with 2-way Google calendar syncing.
