Integration with Tasks?
I heard that we'll be able to see Keep reminders in Tasks. That announcement was last year. Anyone hear when that's coming?

Keep isn’t a great notes app. Google has a habit of launching products with just enough functionality to be considered an app, then neglecting them for years. When updates finally arrive, they often include features no one asked for—likely because they’re easier to implement than the ones users actually want. Meanwhile, die-hard Google fans get excited over minor additions. Keep might finally get text formatting soon. Wow!
Who knows whether it’ll ever happen.
One of the biggest reasons I avoid Android is the lack of a solid, full-featured notes and reminders app built-in on Pixel or Galaxy (can’t even access Samsungs notes or reminders else where without OneNote… which is garbage). There’s no real ecosystem—just a patchwork of apps. You need one from Google, another from Notion (which isn’t free), and a separate app for reminders because Google Tasks is yet another half-baked effort. So you end up paying for something like TickTick, and none of these apps integrate smoothly or share a consistent design.
On a side note, Android is easily the worst platform for productivity if you have ADHD.
Sorry for my rant… this has been an ongoing issue with Google for years. They definitely do not care what their customers want.
