Google's plan to migrate reminders from Tasks will be executed in late 2025
In a significant move towards consolidating its productivity services, Google has announced that reminders from Google Keep will be migrating to Google Tasks in the second half of 2025 [1][2][3][4]. This decision is part of Google's broader effort to unify reminders across Calendar, Assistant, and Keep into Google Tasks.
The migration process has already begun, with early 2025 marking the start of the rollout [2][3][4]. When the migration happens, users will find their Keep reminders automatically saved to Tasks, complete with a "From Keep" badge for easy identification [2][3][4].
Google Tasks, which is set to replace Google Assistant Reminders [5], will serve as the single solution for managing to-dos across Google Workspace. This shift aims to streamline to-do management and reduce fragmentation across Google Workspace apps [1][2].
After the migration, users will be able to find, edit, and complete their reminders in Keep, Calendar, Tasks, and Assistant, centralising task management [1][2]. Google Tasks will also synchronise with various Google Workspace products, including Keep, Gmail, Calendar, Chat, Docs, and Assistant, ensuring that saved items are up-to-date and accessible across the services used.
The Google Keep web app is finally rolling out text formatting, while the Google Keep for Android widget redesign is now available [6][7]. However, no specific updates or details about Google Keep for iOS or other platforms were provided in this announcement.
It is worth noting that the Google Keep Apple Watch app is no longer available [8]. This move, along with the migration of reminders from Keep to Tasks, underscores Google's commitment to focusing on a unified productivity experience across its Workspace ecosystem.
By late 2025, Google Keep reminders should be fully integrated into Google Tasks, providing a seamless and centralised solution for managing reminders and to-dos across Google’s productivity services.

Technology plays a crucial role in the migration of Google Keep reminders to Google Tasks, as the process utilizes advanced integration and synchronization capabilities to create a seamless and centralized solution for managing reminders and to-dos across Google's productivity services.
By late 2025, users will experience streamlined to-do management across multiple Google Workspace apps as a result of the unified productivity approach initiated by Google's technology.
