KiteTasks is a true native macOS app — fast, keyboard-driven, and deeply integrated with your system. Every feature is designed to feel right at home on your Mac.
Screenshot: Quick Capture
Assign a system-wide keyboard shortcut to KiteTasks and capture tasks instantly from any application. Writing an email and remember something? Press your shortcut, type the task, and hit Enter. You're back in your email in under three seconds. No context switching, no losing your train of thought.

Stop fiddling with date pickers and dropdowns. Just type what you need to do in plain English — "Call Mom tomorrow at 3pm" or "Submit report next Friday" — and KiteTasks automatically parses the date, time, and task title. It understands relative dates, specific times, and recurring patterns so you can capture tasks as fast as you think of them.
Screenshot: Today View
Start your day with clarity. The Today View pulls together every task due today across all your Google Tasks lists into a single, focused screen. No digging through multiple lists or wondering what you missed. Just open KiteTasks, glance at your Today View, and know exactly what needs your attention.
Screenshot: Search everything
Google Tasks has no search feature — once a task scrolls out of view, it's gone. KiteTasks changes that with full-text search across every list and every task in your account. Type a few characters and results appear instantly. Find that task you created weeks ago in seconds, not minutes of scrolling.
Screenshot: Better Subtasks
Big tasks are easier to tackle when broken into smaller steps. KiteTasks gives you proper nested subtasks with clear visual hierarchy, so you can outline a project, track each step, and see your progress at a glance. Expand and collapse subtask groups to focus on what matters without cluttering your view.
Screenshot: Your layout, your way
Not everyone thinks in lists. KiteTasks lets you switch between list view for detailed planning, board view for visual workflows, and compact view for quick scanning. Each view syncs with the same data, so switch freely depending on the task at hand. Your layout, your rules.
Screenshot: Multi-Account
Keep work and personal tasks separate without the hassle. Add multiple Google accounts to KiteTasks and switch between them in a single click. Each account gets its own task lists, its own Today View, and its own settings. No more logging in and out or juggling browser profiles.
Screenshot: Private by design
KiteTasks connects directly to Google's servers using OAuth 2.0 — the same secure method used by Google's own apps. Your tasks are never routed through third-party servers, never stored anywhere except your Mac and your Google account. There's no tracking, no analytics, no telemetry. Your productivity data stays yours.
Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later
