Hi Taskaders 🎉
We've worked hard to make Taskade work better for you! Here's what's new:
TL;DR: December 2021 closed the year with virtual video-call backgrounds, a new wallpaper collection, and the iPad/Android tablet experience — primitives that today live on as branded Genesis apps on custom domains, the Community Gallery, and the Zoom integration.
Then → Now: 2021's virtual backgrounds and wallpapers evolved into today's custom domains and the Genesis Community Gallery, where any Genesis-built app can be branded, themed, and published to the world.
⚡️ Virtual Background
The new video chat is here with improved call quality, faster screen sharing, and virtual background. Give it a try for your next meeting! Learn more.
