Overview
- The update lets Android users assign a deadline date to tasks, addressing a long-requested capability.
- Deadlines currently support only a date with no option to specify a time, as noted by Android Police.
- Android Central reports the option appears on the task edit screen and the deadline is not shown on the main list.
- Android Headlines says some users now see the deadline option during task creation as the feature rolls out in batches.
- Compared with apps like Todoist and Due, Google Tasks still lacks time-based deadlines, reminder nudges, and other advanced management features.
