Apps for getting productive

MAKE BETTER USE OF YOUR TIME WITH THESE HANDY SMARTPHONE AND TABLET APPS.

WITH THE DAWN of the 21st century, there’s been a growing expectation that we should all ‘do more with less’. Global communication networks mean people are no longer confined to the 9-to-5 day (for better or worse), with our mobiles making us accountable anywhere we’ve got an active internet connection. What’s more, smartphones have arguably made some significant improvements to the average human’s productivity levels — we’ve now all got the capacity to make calls, send texts, search the web and send emails at a second’s notice. Now, there’s an entire category of apps promising to enhance your efficiency even further — whether that’s creating to-do lists, scheduling meetings or even managing your social media accounts. This month, we’ve compiled a list of our favourite productivity apps that could help bring a little more order and efficiency to your (increasingly chaotic) world.
