Maximise productivity and make the most of your time.

The smartphone technological advancement of the modern age has brought with it an enormous amount of benefits, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t any downsides. The app store is full of Angry Birds, Candy Crush, and other distracting apps that can take your attention and eat into your work time. However, if you know where to look, the distractions are matched by apps to help you maximise productivity and make the most of your time. Keep reading for a roundup of some of the best work-boosting apps for your iPhone.

1. Captio

This note-taking app will be perfect for you if you’re the sort of person who is always taking notes on little bits of paper and then losing them. After you’ve set up the app, all you need to do to use it is open it up and type in your ideas. When you’re done, you press send, and the app will send an email of the note to your inbox. With Captio you’ll never lose any of your bright ideas again.

2. Cam Scanner

With this app, you can easily take snaps of books or pages of documents and quickly convert them into JPG or PDF files. These files can then be uploaded to the cloud or sent by email to your inbox. Cam Scanner is ideal if you are trying to run a paperless office or like to have a backup of your paper files.

3. Todoist

There’s a reason why this app is on almost everyone’s list of productivity apps. Todoist can keep track of all your tasks and lists—from the insignificant to the vitally important—in order to help you get everything done when it needs to be done. Todoist is a complex app with a simple user interface so won’t stress you out even if you’re an avowed technophobe.

4. Be Focused

It can be difficult to stay on track, especially if you have a big task to accomplish. Be Focused helps solve this problem by breaking tasks down into smaller chunks, and giving you timed periods to work separated by short breaks. Users can manage their tasks, set themselves targets, and monitor their work rate throughout the day.

5. 1Password

Security is so important, but remembering all our different passwords for all our different apps can eat into our valuable time. This password manager app can boost your work rate by keeping all your passwords securely in one place so that you don’t have to search for them.
