Show tasks in Google Calendar as different type of event

The tasks of a calendar show in the same colour as the events which prevent good readability while the distinction exists in Google Calendar.

    Thanks for the suggestion! One thing decides this on our side: Niagara only reads Android's shared calendar storage, and Google doesn't make its own tasks and reminders available there, so we never receive them as tasks. Whatever does reach the agenda arrives as a plain calendar event, which is why it gets the same look. There's more on that in Niagara's Calendar Widget.

    Which app syncs those tasks into your calendar? Just reply here in the thread, that tells us what Niagara actually gets handed.

    If the tasks sit in their own sub-calendar, you can already hide them today via Niagara Settings > Features > Niagara widget > Calendar > Filter events (Niagara Pro). For telling calendars apart visually, the closest open request is Better calendar events display, color coded for quicker distinction betwe calendars, and upvoting that one helps it along.
