After you've put a Google Tasks widget on your page, you should select and connect it to a Google account.

When you do this, you will authorize Start.me to view your name, email address, and profile picture. If you'd like, you can check our Privacy policy or Terms of service.

Once you've connected Google, you can immediately see your tasks. They update directly with the Google service. You can add or complete them in real-time.

Not supported yet, is the possibility to hide completed tasks. You have to enter Edit mode (More options button) to delete each item. Subtasks aren't supported either: you'll see them on the same level as the other tasks. And finally, if you add dates to your tasks, they aren't displayed either.

Our Google Tasks widget does support multiple lists.
