What you can do with Reclaim + Google Tasks
The Google Tasks integration helps Reclaim turn personal to-dos into calendar time. Google Tasks can remind you when a task is due, but Reclaim helps suggest which tasks to work on according to priority and due date so that you have time to actually complete the work.
With Reclaim and Google Tasks, users can:
See their Google Tasks within the Reclaim Tasks panel
Save searches specific to their Google tasks & tasks list to Habit & Focus Time agents
Consider the suggested Tasks to work on according to due date and priority
Track overdue, active, and completed tasks
For More information on getting things done with tasks, see our guide here. Additionally, for assigning tasks to Focus Time & Habit agents, see this guide here.
