The Any.do Gmail Add-on lets you convert any email into a task in a convenient view right next to your email threads, eliminating the need to open the app itself. It is a fast and simple way to create action items straight from your Gmail threads.
Availability:
Personal users (free).
Premium users.
Teams users.
🛠️ How does it work?
The feature can be enabled via the GSuite Marketplace.
It will then be available as soon as you open an email in your Gmail inbox.
Users can add tasks to lists or boards.
Adding a task via the add-on will create a direct link to the actual email you've set your task from.
Clicking on the email from your Any.do app will open the exact thread the task is related to.
💡 Note: The Gmail add-on for personal lists is a free integration available to all users. Workspace members will be able to also add tasks to their boards.
