JAKARTA - Google has finally released a major update for the Google Calendar app on Android devices. With this update, users can now manage all task and task lists directly through the full screen display in the Calendar app, making it more practical without the need to switch to another app.

This update presents a new Tasks icon located at the top right of the screen, just between the user profile picture and the "Today" display button. By tapping this icon, users will be directed directly to an integrated Google Tasks interface. There, they can review, set, and tag the task as done.

Not only that, Google Calendar now displays all task lists, including tasks that don't have specific dates. Previously, only tasks with specific dates were displayed in this application. This change makes Google Calendar a much more flexible task management tool.

This update first appeared in Google Calendar's web version last year, and is now finally rolling out to Android users. Previously, the presence of this feature in the mobile app was detected in the dismantling of the APK by the Authority Insights last month.

This new feature is already available for:

However, until now, Google has not announced when this feature will be present on iOS devices.

With Google Tasks integration into Google Calendar, the role of Google Tasks' standalone app is decreasing. Even so, Google Tasks is still relevant to users who want the widget of the list of tasks on their phone's main screen or to create new tasks quickly.

This update brings Google Calendar to more than just a scheduling application. The integration of tasks and task lists in one application provides more convenience for Android users to manage their daily activities efficiently. For those of you who rely on productivity through the Google ecosystem, this update is one of the great steps to simplify the needs of task management.
