All tasks in a queue appear in order. The whole concept of a queue is that it is an ordered list, which forces a person to decide the importance of a task compared to the others. With that said, GQueues makes it extremely easy to change the order of tasks in a queue making it a flexible, useful tool for getting organized.
Click the Add Item link to create a new task or use a keyboard shortcut.
Or if you are currently typing the description of the last item in the list, simply hit the tab key to create a new task.
You will also notice that if you list grows to more than 10 items an Add Item link will appear at the bottom of the list as well for convenience.
A unique email address has been created for your account that is linked to your Inbox. You can send email to this address from any email account and a task will be created in your Inbox. This may be useful, for instance, when setting up filters and automatic forwarding, or when you want to add items to GQueues from multiple email accounts.
Go to the General section of Settings to find your Inbox address.
When sending an email, the subject line will become the description of the task and the body of the email will become the task notes.
You can type a date or time in the subject line as well and GQueues will set the date appropriately.
Use [square brackets] to specify the queue for the item and pound (#) to add tags.
For example, enter a subject line of dentist appointment on 11/27 @ 1pm
GQueues will create an item named dentist appointment and set a due date of November 27th and a time of 1pm.
If the queue is not specified with [square brackets], items created via email are placed in the Inbox queue and can be dragged to a more specific queue at any time.
NOTE: Anyone that knows your Inbox address will be able to send tasks to your Inbox. If the address gets in the wrong hands, you can reset it in Settings. Emails to the old address will be ignored and tasks will be created only for emails sent to the new address.
Send an instant message to and a new item will be instantly created in your Inbox with the appropriate date and time if specified.
For example, if you type brunch sunday at 11am
GQueues will create an item named brunch and set a date of next Sunday and a time of 11am
You can send items to a specific queue by putting the queue name in square brackets (ie. [To Do]). Add tags to an item by using the pound sign (ie. #walgreens)
You can message gqueues@appspot.com directly, but if you would like to receive an invitation from the chat bot to be added to your contacts go to Settings in GQueues and click on Request an invite.
When creating a new item you can type the date and time as part of the description to save yourself a few clicks.
For example, if you type rehearsal on dec 12th at 4pm
GQueues will create an item named rehearsal and set a date of December 12th and a time of 4pm
You can type with just about any format and GQueues will figure out what you mean. Here's just a few examples:
NOTE: If you use the date format dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy you can set this preference in Settings
You can also quickly add tags by using the pound (#) symbol.
To change the description of an item simply click on the item description and start typing the changes.
You can reorder items within a queue by clicking and dragging the item number on the left side of the item.
If you want to move an item to a different queue simply drag it over to the desired queue on the left and it will be moved there.
Use the Reorder menu to reorder items by date or name. Clicking the button a second time will reverse the order.
Note this actually reorders the tasks. You will not be able to get your original order back.
After reordering:
Hover your mouse over the item and then click the checkmark. The item will now appear in the Completed tab for that queue.
Hover your mouse over the item and then click the red and white X button.
If you deleted an item accidentally you can click the Undo link that appears above the list to get it back.
NOTE: You can only undo the last item you deleted. As soon as you move on to a new action, the option to undo disappears.
Hover your mouse over the item, click on the calendar button and choose the desired date. To remove a date for an item click the Clear All link. See Calendar Integration for details about viewing your GQueues items on your Google Calendar.
Once you have set a date for an item you can also set a specific time. Simply check the box next to Time, drag the Hour and Minute bars to the time desired and close the pop-up window. If you have activated Google Calendar Integration then these times will also sync with your Google Calendar. Changes to dates and times made to items in Google Calendar will also be reflected back in GQueues. To clear the time just uncheck the box next to Time.
NOTE: In order for the times to sync correctly between GQueues and Google Calendar you must ensure the timezone is set correctly in both places.
Reminders in GQueues are only available if you have activated Google Calendar Integration. Once you have set a date for an item you can then also set a reminder. There are three different options for reminders:
To set the time of the reminder simply check the box next to Reminder and slide the bar at the bottom of the window. For items with no time set, the reminder will appear at the specified minutes before midnight, the beginning of day for the item's date. To turn off a reminder uncheck the box next to Reminder.
NOTE: In order for reminders to appear at the correct time you must ensure the timezone is set correctly in both GQueues and Google Calendar.
Hover your mouse over the item, click on the pencil button and type in the space provided.
Click the duplicate icon on the item you want to duplicate. 
Select the number of copies to make, and click Create Items.
Copies will be created which you can modify as necessary.
NOTE: Duplicating an item does not duplicate any subtasks under the item.
