However if there are still some unresolved problems, check out the next suggestion.
Tasks work differently for the calendar and manager:
If you have set repeating tasks on the Google Tasks app, you will have to respond to the alerts being provided by the first alert. Only then will the task be considered complete. That is when Google Tasks will remind you about the next task at hand. This can work a bit differently for Google Calendar. But for users using the app, this is an important thing to keep in mind.
