Syncing schedule dates between the apps. Google tasks has 1 date and time but in Morgen there can be multiple which creates various issues showing that in Morgen. This is consistent across all integrations.
I use Google tasks when in the car "hey Google add task….." then when I go onto my PC I schedule when I am going to do the tasks (normally 2 or three times in the next week) but the date I said in the car is still the due date (deadline).
Is there a specific feature here you think I have missed?

Thanks for update. I think #1 is asking the same thing. But just to clarify, I show you an annotated screenshot from my web browser on the Google Calendar (i.e. https://calendar.google.com). Here you can see I have 3x Google Tasks (with at least a date, sometimes also a time set). Google appears to automatically populate these into a dedicated Tasks calendar (which it created). These tasks, inside this calendar, appear as if they are all-day events. It's really nice. You can see it even has the Google Tasks icon (the checkmark) on the title of the "event" (which is a task), so it's very easy to distinguish this as a Task compared to a regular all-day event. Hope that helps.
I feel this should be easy to visualise in Morgen. You already have the functionality to visualise all-day events (for events added to a calendar). So all you need to do, is read the Google Tasks, and see if they have a date set. If they do, you create a new "event" inside a dedicated Tasks calendar. You set it as an all-day event in that calendar, and magically it should appear. The user can then specify in Morgen whether to enable them or not (as it's just another calendar under that Google account). You might even already have direct access to the Google Tasks "calendar" (which I highlight in my screenshot), so it'll be even easier.
Sorry if I am making it sound too simple, but I really feel you already have this functionality, and it's just a sneaky/smart workaround to reuse existing logic/code you already have implemented :-)
Let me know if I didn't explain myself well, thanks heaps.

Nasser: Yes, visualizing due dates can be done with Morgen tasks and many of the other integrations.
They show in the all day section with a red overline seen below.
I made the feature request to visualize Google tasks so 🤞 with enough votes and feedback it will boosted in priority.
Do you think I could merge these requests?

Hello, thank you for this.
If I understand correctly I think there are 2 points here:
Due dates in Google tasks can't be visualized yet in Morgen but there is a request for this here: https://morgen.canny.io/feature-requests/p/google-tasks-and-ms-todo-due-date-visualization

The recent custom filters helps me see all my task sources together so I don't miss anything but the saved filters list request will help my workflow: https://morgen.canny.io/feature-requests/p/combined-task-list-saved-filtered-views
Hopefully this helps.
