Overview
- Users can reserve a specific block of time for a task, appear as busy, and adjust the duration as needed.
- Optional settings enable do-not-disturb during a task block and automatically reject overlapping meeting invites.
- Tasks now include a deadline field that accepts only a date rather than a specific time.
- The feature differs from Focus Time by assigning a particular task to the reserved calendar slot.
- Availability covers all Workspace customers, Google One subscribers, and personal Gmail accounts, and users can create a timed task by selecting an empty calendar slot and choosing Task.
