Switching from Any.do to Google Reminder

Now completely shifted from Any.do to Google Reminder.

Advantages:
Reminder appears in the google calendar. So one app for appointments, schedules and reminders. More over now Google calendar have new feature for goal settings.

One app less. Saving battery charge and notifications.

What I would miss:
Any.do has subtasks option which is very useful to split one task to multiple tasks and strike off one by one. This option can be used creatively for different purpose. For example: I create a task 'buy ' and all items to be bought is created as subtasks. When I buy any item I strike it off. If I have multiple things to be completed for vacation, I make one task as vacation and create subtasks under it.

I appreciate Any.do is a great app to organise and follow up things to do. For me, I extensively use Google Calendar and it is only convenient to have reminders for things to do within the Calendar itself. It is easy to schedule any day.
