I am not seeing how to install this.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Eddi Rae,

GTB does not need to be installed, as it runs on the server.
  1. Go to https://tasks-backup.appspot.com
    • GTB has not been optimized to display on a mobile phone, so I recommend using a laptop or desktop computer.
    • If prompted, click [Authorise] and follow the prompts to allow GTB to retrieve your tasks.
  2. If you wish to include completed tasks in your backup, enable the "Include completed tasks" checkbox (recommended)
    • Unless you intend to use the export to import into another application that doesn't support completed tasks, I recommend including completed tasks
  3. Click [Retrieve tasks]
    • GTB will retrieve tasks from the Google Tasks server. This may take several minutes if you have many tasks.
    • GTB will indicate how many tasks were retrieved.
  4. Choose the desired export format and click on [Export tasks data]
    • If you wish to retain a regular backup, or if you wish to re-import the tasks into another Gmail account, I recommend the GTBak format
  5. You can also click  [Display tasks page] to display all the retrieved tasks in a format suitable for printing

I hope this helps you,
