Everyone has been trying to sync up tasks from their Google accounts to their iPhone / iPad and the whole ordeal can be a bit laborious. Sometimes it just feels impossible and if you didn’t already know that, well now you do. The only way to access Google tasks is through mobile Safari or another we browser. Even Google Mobile App will direct you to the web based version of Google tasks, via Safari. As it stands, there is no way to accss Google tasks on the iOS Mail.app either, only notes can be synced through that.
No one said the web-based version of Google tasks is such a bad thing, but if you are desperate to deal with your Google tasks through an app, with that app feel then check out GooTasks. GooTasks is a straight forward and very simple app. It allows you to manage, create, edit, and delete Google tasks from various Google accounts. It lists all your tasks in one place for you as well and to top it all off, it’s free. It isn’t very different from Google’s own mobile, web based version – the only noticeable difference being an offline mode for use when you are off the grid. Naturally, the tasks would sync once you’re back online.
GooTasks is made by the French developer, Runware and you can check out the GooTasks website in English by clicking here. Be warned though, the iTunes App Store description is in French only. Another word of caution, GooTasks has an in-app purchase to upgrade to GooTasks Pro for a price of £2.99. The upgrade does seem kind of pointless as you can just create a little web shortcut on your home screen, that way, with one touch, your tasks will appear before you – just remember to save your log details. If you are in the market for something similar to GooTasks, check out CalenGoo or GeeTasks. Keep in mind that these are paid apps.
