Block off time to work on a task in Calendar

What’s changing 

Users can now easily block off time on their calendar to work on a specific task. On your calendar, select an empty slot > click task. From here, you can add the relevant task and description, and customize details like visibility and do not disturb settings. Now you can work on a specific task without any disruptions. You'll also see the task on your task list and get reminded until the task is completed
