"The latest feature update for Google Calendar allows you to block off time for tasks and mark yourself as busy, all in one place, expanding the existing Tasks feature in Calendar. It's something Workspace users have been specifically requesting and effectively allows tasks to function like meetings, including options to set (and adjust) a specific block of time, turn on "do not disturb," and automatically reject meeting requests."
"It has had a slew of changes over the past several years, from launching as its own app back in 2018 to getting some much-needed updates recently, like integrated reminders from Google Keep and the addition of completion dates. The change is coming to all Workspace customers, individual subscribers, and personal Gmail accounts. It started rolling out to Rapid Release domains on November 6th, but could take until mid-December to appear on your account."
Google Calendar now lets users block off time for tasks, mark themselves as busy, enable Do Not Disturb, and automatically reject meeting requests for task periods. Users can set and adjust a specific time block and add a deadline date (time not supported). Tasks gained integrated Google Keep reminders and completion dates after launching as a separate app in 2018. The feature rollout covers Workspace customers, individual subscribers, and personal Gmail accounts, started on Rapid Release domains November 6 and may reach all accounts by mid-December. Users can create a timed task by selecting 'Task' on an empty calendar block.
