If you don’t manage your time carefully you will find life passing you by. The world would be a much better place if everyone was a lot more productive. You want to spend your free time doing fun things like going to the gym, eating out at restaurants, or spending your hard-earned money online at cool shopping sites.
The only way you will become more productive is with a little help. You can change the way you think and act, or you can let technology do everything for you. If you have an Android phone there are some very good productivity apps screaming your name. Take a look at these ones you would be a fool not to test out.
SwiftKey
If you’re trying to send emails when sitting on the train you don’t want it to take too long because you’ll have less time to play games and do some window-shopping online. SwiftKey makes it easier for you to type a lot quicker because it gives you a better keyboard to use, plus it predicts the next word it expects you to type. It’s also got one of the best auto-correct functions around to increase your typing speed even more.
AirDroid
The screen on your phone is small, so do you think you would be able to do everything a lot quicker if you hooked your phone up to a full-sized monitor? You can do exactly that if you download this great app. You would probably be able to do most things on your desktop computer anyway, but there will always be a few things you can only do on your phone which is why you need AirDroid.
Locale
Has your phone ever started ringing in the middle of an important meeting because you forgot to turn it onto silent mode? I’m sure you were pretty embarrassed, but if you have the Locale app you won’t need to worry any longer. You can set up your phone to perform specific actions based on where you are. Instead of draining your battery by keeping Wi-Fi enabled all day you could only turn it on as soon as you stepped into the office.
Check
Have you been spending a little too much money on shopping sites? Are you late paying your bills on a monthly basis? Check lets you become the master of your finances and it will save you a lot of time. It will let you track those late night spending sprees and it will inform you when there is a bill due to be paid. It’s especially useful if you’re on a tight budget because you don’t want to incur overcharges or overspend.
Box
When you spend hours working on something on your phone you don’t want to lose it because it means you have to start all over again. If you’re looking for a great storage solution you should turn to Box and every single one of your files, photos, and videos will be safe from harm. The app is very similar to Dropbox except there are more security features to give you extra peace of mind, because losing everything is the worst thing in the world.
Evernote
If you want to remember something your friend tells you it’s a waste of time looking for a piece of paper. When you see something you want to buy on the internet you want to write down the details when you’re on the move. Evernote is the greatest note-taking app you will ever find and you’ll never have to struggle to find a notebook when you want take any notes again.
A few hours a day
Do you realize how much time you waste on a daily basis? It you added it all up it might come to a few hours per day, so you really need to do something about it. Hopefully you start using these apps to claim back some of those lost hours.
