I am so happy to see you are still making videos. I started watching you a couple weeks ago but everything was from 4 years ago. I am a first year teacher for 2022-2023. I feel more comfortable after watching your videos. Thank you for working so hard to help others with ideas and freebies which I saw on your TPT store! I am excited to see all the other things I can use for my first year of teaching 💕
Hi Christian! Welcome to my channel... I'm so happy you found me (and yes... I'm still making new videos every weekend)! 🖤 I'm so happy I could help you during your first year! Best of luck to you... you've got this!
Great video! I switched from my paper agenda based system to a combination of Google tasks and Google Keep ( to keep track of discipline, etc...) it's been awesome. Our school already uses GSuite so it was nice to make it all in the same ecosystem. The digital checklist is not quite as satisfying as a paper and pen list, but it's hard to beat searchable and cross platform.
I appreciate how thorough you are with your tutorials. Are still using your Google Keep lists now that Tasks has come about? Hope to hear how you balance the two in your next video!
Thank you so much Nyree! I appreciate you watching! 🥰 That's a great question... my next video (it will be up 3/20) will actually breakdown the differences between Google Tasks and Google Keep plus I'll share how I currently use each one! 🖤
Ahhh... great question Lindsey! I personally had two separate lists. In order to keep them organized, I used to store my power list for school in Google Keep (since most of the tasks were items from my recurring checklists anyway so I could easily reference those in Google Keep) and my power list for my personal life in Google Tasks. You could also just great a longer power list (2 items for school and 2 items for personal or 2 for one and 3 for the other) and use emojis to organize them... put a pencil next to school items and a heart next to personal items. Just a thought... honestly, there are SO many ways you could do it. You just have to find a system that works for you!
Hi Lindsey, I am a early years teacher and just starting using the Powerlist method. In the google tasks app I have a seperate section for work, and this is a master list of work related tasks. Then when I am planning for the next day to make my Powerlist I draw from both my personal master list of to do’s and my work list. I hope that helps you at all. ❤️
I fell in love with Google Keep after watching one of your videos and my keep list was so beautiful as I'd made headers for them. However, it wasn't really working for me as a to do list so I caved in after listen to one of your Teaching from the Top podcasts and tried Google Tasks again. I like Google Tasks but couldn't quite get on with it fully....I've added the app to Google chrome and being able to have it full screen is a game changer for me. Thank you so much! :)
YES! I should have added that in but it slipped my mind. Thanks for pointing that out! I've definitely used that feature before and it's awesome! Thanks Sabrina!
Thank You , you really helped me landing my new professional job while keep me fully organized. Thank You for always helping us to be more productive and rounded.
Looking forward to your upcoming video about the difference between Google Tasks and Keep. Right now I use Keep for just about everything but I am tempted to switch to Tasks.
Ahhh I'm happy you're excited about my next video! I used Keep for everything for a while too. But, there's one key difference that I'll explain next week that makes me LOVE Google Tasks for my ongoing to-do lists! I can't wait for you to see the video!
Thanks so much for this video and the one that explains the difference between google keep and tasks. I am finding that I am so much more organized now and focused with my to-do's! This was helpful in my personal life and professional life!
The subtasks can be created from browser only. The subtasks can't have separate reminders. If I want to mark one of your RUclips videos to view again later and implements tips, I can't add it to Google Calendar. I have to add it to Google tasks. When I do this it doesn't give option as in which account and which list to save in. It picks the default account. These options are not available on mobile app. One doesn't only work from computer only. There's no search option for talks.
I just commented about this. It appears that Google Tasks is more straightforward and task-oriented, while Google Keep is better for adding notes and media elements to your to-do list.
Great question Nellie! My next video (it will be up 3/20) will actually breakdown the differences between Google Tasks, Google Keep, and the Notes app plus I'll share how I currently use each one! 🖤
@@PocketfulofPrimary Thats wonderful! Thank you so much for taking the time to answer this question and for posting such great thorough videos. I look forward to watching them. You make a difference!! Keep up the good work. 🙌🏼
Thank you so much Laurie! My next video (it will be up 3/20) will actually breakdown the differences between Google Tasks, Google Keep, and the Notes app plus I'll share how I currently use each one! 🖤
Thank you so much for watching! The great news is that you don't HAVE to use any extensions! Google Tasks can be accessed within any of the main Google Apps like Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Google Slides, Google Docs, etc. at any time using the sidebar!
Love your videos! I always learn so much. When I am in tasks on my phone, I don't see my lists across the top. I have to click the three lines in the bottom left corner to toggle between my lists. How can I get mine up at the top?
Thanks for the tutorial. Google TASKS seems similar to Google KEEP, except TASKS seems to be more straightforward and task-oriented, correct? I think I'm going to go with TASKS.
I have loved watching your Google tutorials! I was wondering if you have recently taken the Google Educator Level 1 exam. If so, do you have any tips or suggestions?
Thank you Haydn! I actually haven't taken it yet... I was preparing for it but then life got hectic so I put that on the backburner. Now that I have more time, it's definitely something I want to get back to! I'll probably create some vlogs to document the process when I get there!
You have completely changed my productivity in the past year, and the way I organize things. I've used Google Keep for to-dos, but now I've actually changed my organization over to Notion, because I'm a prep music teacher and it's been a good way for me to keep track of multiple lessons and assessments in one place. Now that you used Google Tasks, do you still used Keep?
Hi Elise! Thank you so much for sharing... that's awesome! My next video (it will be up 3/20) will actually breakdown the differences between Google Tasks and Google Keep plus I'll share how I currently use each one! 🖤
Thank you so much Nellie! I'm happy it's helpful! I currently have protein from Optimum Nutrition, 1st Phorm, and Bomar Nutrition! I have a tendency to hoard protein LOL so I'm trying to work through all the tubs. But, those are my favorite brands along with Ghost and Syntha-6!
Thank you so much Karen! That's a great question... Google Tasks allows you to check off the tasks (which will cross them out on your Google Calendar as well). Hopefully that makes sense!
Thank you so much! I appreciate it! I actually put that on pause because life got hectic but I do need to get back to it. Maybe I can document the process for others who are curious about it?
Close... but we actually use the Notes app for grocery lists so we can each add to it. Google Tasks doesn't allow you to "share" your lists with any collaborators. my next video (it will be up 3/20) will actually breakdown the differences between Google Tasks, Google Keep, and the Notes app plus I'll share how I currently use each one! 🖤

So helpful, and I love the area you included to list where to find important parts of the video (the timeline). Thank you, Michelle!
Power list... Interesting concept... I've been using tasks forever and never thought about it. Thx!
Thank you!! How did you manage keeping your school power to do lists separate from your life power to do list? I find that to be very challenging.
Ahhh... great question Lindsey! I personally had two separate lists.

Hi! Great app! You can also create a task from an email you have received. Just click on the add to tasks icon over the email ... That's great for me!
YES! I should have added that in but it slipped my mind. Thanks for pointing that out! I've definitely used that feature before and it's awesome! Thanks Sabrina!

Perfect info! I already had my productive Sunday to get everything set for my week ahead and it’s going to be a great week!
That's so great Russell! Getting everything set up before the week starts makes SUCH a big difference!
Looking forward to your upcoming video about the difference between Google Tasks and Keep. Right now I use Keep for just about everything but I am tempted to switch to Tasks.
same, I set up everything in keep from an earlier tutorial from Michelle, so now not sure which way is better for me?
Ahhh I'm happy you're excited about my next video! I used Keep for everything for a while too. But, there's one key difference that I'll explain next week that makes me LOVE Google Tasks for my ongoing to-do lists! I can't wait for you to see the video!
Good to know. Thank you. I'll download it 😊

Thanks so much! I couldn’t figure out how to reorder my lists on my phone-problem solved. A productive Sunday morning already. Woo hoo
I'm so happy this was helpful for you Mrs. Fed! Thanks for watching
Thanks so much! Always love your quick tutorials on various platforms.
Thank you so much for watching Barb! I'm happy you enjoyed it!

Ahh that's great! Thank you so much for watching Alejandra! 🖤
This was very helpful, to fine tune something's I needed to work on more fluently!
That's great Anita! I'm so happy you found it helpful! Thanks for watching! 🖤
Thanks for the tutorial. Has Tasks replaced Google Keep for you? Or do you still use Keep for certain things?
Thank you so much Laurie! My next video (it will be up 3/20) will actually breakdown the differences between Google Tasks, Google Keep, and the Notes app plus I'll share how I currently use each one! 🖤
As always, great video! I am so excited to use this.
Do you plan to do any teacher PD that you host, offered to your followers? I would love to participate in a virtual PD session with you!
Great idea! Me too!
Ahhh that's great to know that y'all are interested! Maybe this summer I can offer some virtual PD in real time... that would be awesome!
Great video! Very helpful to see how it works. I’m not sure my district will allow those extensions but Ill try to add them!

@@PocketfulofPrimary awesome!!!
I miss seeing that globe 😂
It's a staple for my backdrop
If you put a date on the item, does it automatically add it to the calendar?
This is so helpful. I was listening to your podcast this week and want to try the protein icecream. What brand of protein do you currently use?
Thank you so much Nellie! I'm happy it's helpful! I currently have protein from Optimum Nutrition, 1st Phorm, and Bomar Nutrition! I have a tendency to hoard protein LOL so I'm trying to work through all the tubs. But, those are my favorite brands along with Ghost and Syntha-6!
great as usual. Love your shirt! so, how is tasks different than just adding events to the calendar?
Thank you so much Karen! That's a great question... Google Tasks allows you to check off the tasks (which will cross them out on your Google Calendar as well). Hopefully that makes sense!
Hi Michelle, what is the difference of google tasks and Google keep?
Nice to meet you.Iam Chinese .I have bad English.I want to find a teacher to teach my kid online.If you can,please answer.
Hi, how can I share Google task with someone else ? Like share a grocery list ?
Unfortunately you can't share lists in Google Tasks! You would have to use Google Keep or the Notes app if you want to share a list.
What would be the difference between Google Keep vs. Google Task?
Nevermind- I asked before the end of the video- lol🤪! Looking forward to the video explaining the difference!
Hahaha, don't worry... I get that question a LOT so I'm excited to finally have a video covering it! Thanks for watching until the end Eileen! 🖤
Yes, Your video was good! Did you manage to become the google educator? I participate in that video.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it! I actually put that on pause because life got hectic but I do need to get back to it. Maybe I can document the process for others who are curious about it?
Are you using an Apple product? My Google Tasks does not give me an emoji option! Bummer!!!!!!!
Typed too soon ... I see where you got it. Thanks for sharing. I just downloaded the emoji extension. Very helpful information. Thanks again.
Is this what you and your husband use to create grocery lists?
Close... but we actually use the Notes app for grocery lists so we can each add to it. Google Tasks doesn't allow you to "share" your lists with any collaborators. my next video (it will be up 3/20) will actually breakdown the differences between Google Tasks, Google Keep, and the Notes app plus I'll share how I currently use each one! 🖤
@@PocketfulofPrimary I tried Google Tasks on my phone yesterday, and I liked it. I am going to attempt to keep using it in my everyday life, so that I won't forget to do things.
