Task App Priority & Process

Why is Google Task so basic and why do I have to keep searching for integrations to get basic features that Google Task should already have?  (Google Suite Workspace not free version).  For example I can assign a team member a task but I can't priority mark it, the star only works on your OWN tasks you assign yourself in your sidebar.  There should be some kind of little color feature or priority marking feature example 'Urgent', 'Important' & 'Get to' or we can fill in our own categories and then all tasks get a designation of priority. The point of Tasks is to get us organized, in sync and on track for our priority management of our tasks. Unfortunately I don't want an asana or trello or GQueue because then I have to teach my team a whole new software. It seems simple that Google Task could make a way to prioritize. And no the drag and drop feature higher or lower doesn't work for assigned in a work space because that is for the individual to do on their end which leaves us owner/boss/ managers out of luck to communicate with our team the level of importance. Color codes and or tags could be a great option for substituting the Trello need of 'where are we in the process with this client'.  If GQueue can make tags and colors (a google idea first) it baffles me why Google themself can't do it. HELP. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE GOOGLE!!! WHYYYY

Google Tasks is not a point solution replacement for project management solutions.

Feel free to submit feature ideas through this process

Well it has so many features and capabilities inside Spaces that integrate with Calendar, email, drive, Task, Keep, and on and on there is NO reason it shouldn't take it a few steps further and make it actually function like a full blown project management tool. Its 80% of the way, just seal the deal Google. 😂
