The current Tasks UI looks very outdated – it looks like something out of Gmail v1 – and while there are a number of third-party apps and browser extensions that address the issue,Googleis expected to give the service a touch-up, in line with its current design aesthetic. According to the tipster, Google Tasks is set to receive an updated web app, as indicated by the behavior of the new Tasks URL. AsAndroid Policeexplains:
The Google Tasks service has also received a new icon – a white and yellow check mark – which follows Google’s modern design language. Additionally, the tipster has also shared the location of an icon mask that matches the full-color icon, which has a URL that makes a clear reference to Tasks.
As of now,GoogleTasks doesn’t have an official Android app and doesn’t integrate with the reminders set using the Google Assistant.The features will be a great addition to the updated service and will make using Tasks a more seamless experience.
