Time management is a skill that many of us yearn to have. Do you always feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day and you’re constantly running behind on time? With all the pressure we have sorting out of lives in our 20s, luckily our nifty mobile devices are packed full of fantastic features for us to thrive. One being controllers of our time, with lots of top time management apps available.
So we’ve hunted down some of the best (and free) top time management apps to help you regain control and become your inner superwoman! Gain better time management skills with the help of these three apps:
TickTick: To-do list, checklist and task manager
TickTick is a great calendar-based app that is simple to use, helping you to keep track of time. You can easily enter your tasks for the day manually or via the voice input selection. The app works as a great reminder because as your day goes on, it’ll nudge you about the tasks you’ve listed until you’ve marked them off as complete.
One of TickTick’s features that is particularly clever is the develop a habit section. This works great if you think that you need to read, exercise or drink water more. The app allows you to select, from a list, as many new habits that you want to develop and then go on to choose how many days a week you aim to accomplish them by. If a habit you want to develop isn’t already on the list, you can also create your own.
