With the popularity of smart phones, WeChat, Weibo and Zhihu ... all kinds of forums and games no longer call you all the time, and your attention is tempted all the time. Do you take out your cell phone every few minutes to see what's wrong? I have been despised by female tickets. n times/(ㄒㄒ o)/~ ~.
I like playing mobile phone applications, including time management applications. Here are some applications I have used. It will be my pleasure if you are interested and helpful.
We should grasp a principle when using time management APP. APP is a tool for me. Since it is a tool, the most important thing is to achieve our purpose of use, followed by smooth use. Never put the cart before the horse and be led by the nose by the APP.
the pomodoro technique
Recommended APP: tide. Similar to APP: tick tock, minimalist tomato clock
Purpose of use: focus, improve efficiency, and effectively get rid of the trouble of not being able to brush the mobile phone.
Highlight: Simple and fresh interface, convenient operation and artistic style.
There are many kinds of apps in pomodoro technique, all of which have similar functions and can achieve more focused purposes. So simple interface and operation become the screening conditions. Tide and Didi are two apps that I have used and like better. Here are some favorite tides.
The interface after tide enters is like this. Let's cut to the chase and be brief.
Tide has a great feature, which combines white noise and tomato working clock. There are five kinds of white noise-waves, rain, forests, meditation and coffee shops. There are not many, but they all sound quite comfortable. Tide can also combine white noise with music played by mobile phones. Students who like to listen to music while working may be surprised.
Tide pays attention to details, and has selected background pictures and sentences every day, and has different greetings according to different times.
The main reason why I like tides is that the interface is simple and fresh, the operation is simple and convenient, and it is very literary and suitable for young artists.
Scheduling class
Recommended APP: sooner or later
Purpose of use: scheduling work
Highlight: Support voice input and multi-view display.
There are many functions in the morning and evening, besides personal schedule, it also includes schedule discussion and provides a summary of other activities. I usually only use my personal schedule, and other functions are useless. What is rare is that there are many functions, which does not increase the complexity of using the schedule function.
After entering the morning and evening, the interface is like this, still simple and generous.
Personal favorite function is: intelligent voice/text creation. You can directly input items by voice, and the app will intelligently analyze and extract information such as time, place and items. Quick response, high accuracy of time and place identification. The recognition accuracy of event content needs to be further improved, but it is much more convenient than manual input.
If the created work needs the cooperation of others, such as a meeting, friends can be invited when creating, and the organizer can upload the agenda of the meeting, which can be seen by all invited friends and discussed with them.
The concept of work and rest is also a part I like very much. Morning and evening views are divided into schedule view, day view, week view and month view. Taken together, these views can be used to arrange work at different depths at a glance.
Habit-forming class
Recommended APP: seed habit, similar to app: i habit.
Purpose of use: stick to punching in, I'm used to it.
Highlight: Every habit has its own community, and you can see the friends who stick to it with you.
The biggest feature of seed habit is probably the combination of habit punching and community, which makes you feel that you are not fighting alone. After punching in, you can share your feelings at this moment, or you can look at the status of other small partners, full of positive energy. You can also pay attention to each other with friends and form a habit.
Individuals also like to get used to the options provided when creating. The APP has listed all kinds of interesting habits and classified them, and you can also see the number of participants in each habit. What needs to be suggested is that there are many kinds of habits, and you may want to try many. Don't cultivate multiple habits at the same time, and don't try to get fat at once.
The habit of punching in seeds is very interesting. The number checked in will be reflected on the seed. Every time you sign in, you can help the seeds grow. If you don't sign in for 7 days in a row, you will die. At the same time, the statistics of habit punching are also well done, and you can also see the habit ranking.
Compared with seed habits, iHabit APP is relatively "light". Provide habitual punching and statistical analysis, with simple operation and clear interface, which is very suitable for users with single functional requirements.
Time tracking class
APP:Now Thenfree、iHour
Purpose of use: Statistics of time usage.
Time tracking app is more suitable for letting you know how much time you have spent on something. For example, if you want to know how much time you spend watching movies and reading books every day, you can track it. It is not recommended to use it for the last whole day, which requires a lot of energy, but it is not worth the candle.
There are many time management apps. I recently read the wonderful list, and I feel quite good, but I won't introduce it for a long time. It is impossible to use all these apps. The most important thing is to find the one that helps you the most from many apps. I hope my sharing will help you.
