Best Organizational and Productivity Apps

Productivity AppsWe all need a little help getting it together at times. From keeping up with family obligations, to work and everything that falls in between, it is imperative to have a system in place to keep track of it all.

Luckily there are quite a few apps out there that can help you manage most anything. Here is a run-down on the apps that made my list of the most efficient, useful and easy to use.

Evernote

One of the best note-taking apps around, Evernote allows you to keep track of projects, archive files, save webpages, photos, voice notes and more. Notes can be tagged, searched, exported and added to notebooks that can then be stacked. Share projects and tasks with your team, and allow them to edit if desired.

IFTTT

“If this, then that” or IFTTT, allows you to create formulas or “recipes” to automate your tasks. You can connect devices and apps and tell them how to interact. For example – you can automate cataloguing email, exporting email receipts to Evernote, downloading new music to Dropbox, or sending a message in Twitter when certain hashtags are used.

Last Pass

Have a ton of passwords and struggle remembering where you keep them all? LastPass is a password management service that stores encrypted passwords. Features include one master password, form filling, password encryption, cross-platform availability, multifactor authentication, credit monitoring and more. Log in to all of your accounts quickly and with much less frustration.

Todoist

Great for managing projects and tasks anywhere, even offline. Todoist allows you to collaborate on tasks in real-time with distraction free design. Start a project, create a sub-project, task or sub-task. Set up notifications and reminders, recurring dates, labels, filters and more. Todoist works on just about every platform you think of.

Google Now

With Google Now, simply use voice commands to find a restaurant, send a text message, set up event reminders and more. The app provides “now cards” to deliver the information you need, when you need it. Get weather information, traffic reports, track packages, flights, discover nearby events, attractions, etc. All of the information that matters to you is right at your fingertips.

There are many great apps out there to help us stay on top of just about anything you can think of. The apps featured here are well-designed and easy to use. They are definitely worth checking out if you would like some help making home and work life simpler.

Ready to create the changes that will help you move towards living the life you REALLY want? Now is the time to take control of your personal development by eliminating self-doubt. Give your confidence a boost so you can value the life as well as the business you have dreamed of. Contact Kim Hughes when you are ready to Bring Clarity, Balance, and Confidence to your business.

How to Remember Maintenance Tasks? There’s an App for That!

Brightnest2
These days, we’re all busy with work, family and friends. There’s so little extra time left,  it’s human nature that some things just are not remembered. Like changing the batteries in the smoke-alarms or the filters in the HVAC system. You would do them if you remembered, right?

Now, perhaps you won’t have to worry about remembering. BrightNest is a free app for iPhone and iPads that organizes cleaning and schedules maintenance tasks for you.  After creating an account, or using Facebook, to sign in to the service, you’ll answer some basic questions and then the App is ready to work for you.

​BrightNest will suggest a variety of tasks for you to do, and provide an estimate of how long they’ll take, how hard they’ll be and a guide to how to get them done.  You can then add them to your schedule. If there’s a task not listed in the App, you can add it on the website itself.

Right now, BrightNest is only available for iOS, or through the web. The website includes a variety of excellent, time-saving ideas, from how to create a pallet garden to making small spaces work.
 

Like similar Apps, BrightNest is a way to simplify your life a bit.

This is a great app to share with your real estate clients.
