Simple user interface that works, resembles the UI of Gmail/Google Apps tasks.

    Couldn’t agree with this review more. I use this app all the friggin’ time. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that this app is the only thing that makes Google Tasks usable.

    I especially appreciate that I don’t have to give them my credentials. Why can’t all app developers do that?

    Best tasks list android app. Efficient, simple, fast.
    Integrates with Pure Calendar Widget. Siply the best.

    Can’t believe I’ve just found this. It’s been around since March?!! Great app – just what I was looking for. Just needs a bit of tweaking to make it perfect.

    Hmm. Crippleware that disables automated sync after 30 days and demands a paid upgrade… I’m not entirely sure about this one. Will wait until an open source alternative comes along: for now I’ll stick with Astrid (which *is* open source, and seems to be getting better)
