• Creates new spreadsheets and adds new sheets to existing ones
• Sorts data, adds filters, and performs batch updates across multiple ranges

Google Tasks Manager

• Creates and manages multiple task lists in your Google account
• Adds, updates, and deletes individual tasks within any list
• Moves tasks between lists or reorders them within a list
