Before I part with my cash for the full version I have a small concern
that I hope can be answered here.

I have read in other posts that the peter is in no way affiliated with
google. Also to my knowledge there is no official API to provide
syncing of tasks with google.

I guess is that the app is using unoffical/undocumented methods to
sync tasks with google.

Simply, my concern is how gTasks works?

If it is using unofficial methods then there is the possibility that
google could change them without notice or completely prevent access.
I have read articles about google are in the process of releasing an
Tasks API. Might this one day cause issues.

I dont want to pay for an app that suddenly one day stops working.

The problem is, that this same argument would hold, even after releasing the API ( the sudden stop argument)
Google has a habit of opening data to world, not to prohibiting access

;)

simply even when 3rd party would implement the official API, there is no guarantee google won't change it again

I'm strongly dedicated to resolve any issues that would prevent syncing ( e.g. change and/or releasing the API )

It's up to you if the added value is worth to you ...

Best regards
Peter
