Kanban Tasks is a lightweight task and project board for Google Workspace. It gives you shared, real-time Kanban boards inside Gmail so you can manage work where you already spend your day. ### Who is Kanban Tasks for? It is a good fit for solo users, small teams, agencies, and anyone who wants a simpler way to manage work inside Google Workspace without using a heavier project tool. ### Does Kanban Tasks work inside Gmail? Yes. The main plugin experience lives inside Google Workspace, including Gmail, so you can manage boards and tasks without jumping to another tool all day. ### Can I create a task from an email? Yes. You can turn an email into a task so the subject and email link stay connected to the task. ### If I share a task, does that share my email too? No. Sharing the task does not give your teammates access to your mailbox. The email link stays tied to the Google account that created it. ### What is the Get Work Done board? Get Work Done is a built-in view that helps you focus on what needs attention now. It pulls together due-date-driven work so you can quickly see what is due today, this week, and next. ### What are the Assigned and Mentioned views? Assigned shows tasks assigned to you. Mentioned shows tasks where someone mentioned you in comments. They help you find important work without opening every board one by one. ### Can I share boards and assign tasks to teammates? Yes. Shared boards are the paid collaboration layer. You can keep personal boards private, invite teammates to shared boards, assign work, comment, mention people, and see updates in real time. ### What can I add to a task? You can add due dates, descriptions, checklists, comments, attachments, tags, and assignees so the task has the context people need. ### Will I get notifications? Yes. Kanban Tasks can notify you in the app and by email for assignments, mentions, comments, and due-date activity. ### Does Kanban Tasks connect with Google Calendar? Yes. Tasks with due dates can show up on your Google Calendar, including your own tasks and tasks assigned to you. ### Can I search across my work? Yes. Kanban Tasks includes search so you can find a task and jump to the right place faster. ### Do I need Google Tasks to use Kanban Tasks? No. Kanban Tasks is its own board-based task tool inside Google Workspace. It should not be understood as just Google Tasks in columns. ### What if the plugin still does not appear after I install it? Use Chrome, turn off ad blockers for Gmail, allow third-party cookies, and ask your Google Workspace admin whether extensions are allowed for your account. ### Is Kanban Tasks free? Yes for personal use. You pay only when you want shared team collaboration.
