What is your top productivity apps that you cannot live without?

Skillshare is my favorite.

I you could only imagine how Replika is good. Just check it - apkworlds.com/replika-my-ai-friend/

Zoom: I like the video conferencing feature for groups, with different screen possibilities.

Basecamp: a platform for collaboration and project management for marketing agencies or any other company which has a team of 10+ members.

Thank you very much for introducing me with these cool apps.

Quire indeed is a great project management software. I think it's better than Asana in terms of task list view.

Buffer is a tad expensive for a small team, but it works wonder for a content creator like me.

Thank you very much.

Wow, thank you for sharing this list!

Our team uses Notion and Quire as well.

Notion makes organizing notes super easy and has a large selection of templates to choose from.

Quire makes team collaboration a lot easier and it has an infinite task list, our team is able to create tasks and add subtasks. We can then drag and drop tasks around to different groups within the same project, which makes brainstorming and planning super easy.

Other than the products mentioned in this list, our team also uses Trello. It's very easy to keep everyone up to date on new developments and projects. Overall, these products help me and my team put our tasks and project assignments together.  

I LOVE Notion! They're an absolute gorgeous app! I cannot highlight enough how much I love Notion UI.

But my team found Notion a bit difficult to use for team collaboration. That's why we switched from Notion to Quire!

Forest - incentivizes you to not check your phone; the longer you leave your phone unattended, the more points you get towards planting a tree in real life!

Super Productivity is my favorite tool. It's a personal task management tool/ time tracker with Jira integration. I've to admit though, that part of the reason is that I wrote it myself ;)

Just wrote a little article about it, too.

For what it's worth... CamScanner uses might need to consider an alternative according to this article

I went through so many but now I’m actually using paper, my own version of a bullet journal. With an app, you get what it gives. With a journal, you can modify it as you like. I make monthly layouts for organizing my time and goals, and then every day I use it as a task list and tracker. Every month the layout is different, slowly optimizing to my lifestyle, and changing with how I change.

And there’s just something so refreshing about allowing yourself to step away from the computer and onto paper, the soft texture and pale yellow, the dots, and writing with a pen, being able to draw something or write something just because you feel like it. It’s the best system I’ve found.

1. bundlephobia - check package sizes
2. undraw & blendful - for making illustations on the fly
3. coolors - build color plettes
4. bear - for taking notes, writing documentation and articles

Notion

It has replaced the functionalities of a handful of apps for me.

As a fellow engineer, I'm partial to apps that save me time coding, but here are my top 5:

1. BitBar – Easily program apps for your Mac OS X menu bar
2. GitReflow – Automate pieces of my git workflow.
3. Dash – Centralized documentation reference
4. Clockwise – an intelligent calendar assistant that frees up your time.
5. Kite – If you do any Python, this is an amazing ML code-completion plugin

Emacs org-mode for everything: project/time management, spreadsheets, taking notes in general, lab journals, documentation.

For sure Todoist. Making sure I dont forget anything that I need to do. I have enough Kanban/scrums boards for more detailed technical stuff I need to do. But there is so much around that, professionally and personally.

I’ve been using Taiga.io for project management. So far I like it and there’s a free tier.

Mindmeister is a great recommendation, thanks! As for an app I've started using recently: Notion. How easy it is to get up and running and let your 'dashboard' sort of shape itself overtime is absolutely amazing. I'd been juggling a ton of note taking / task tracking apps until I started using Notion. Now everything just sits in there in an interface that I'm most comfortable with!

Camscanner link is broken :)

• Things 3 for task management.
• MailMate for email - I've tried loads of email clients and this one is as close to perfect as it gets for me.
• Gifox for recording gifs - love the interface.
• TimeWarrior for logging time - I spend a lot of time in the command line so it's great to stay in it as much as possible.
• Inkdrop for documentation and general writing - it's a great app with extension support and can sync between multiple machines.

And just a shameless plug, my own app, Snipline, for managing command line snippets 😀

Be aware with using CamScanner: thehackernews.com/2019/08/android-...

Just wanted to add something about Buffer. Buffer is expensive. Right now there's an amazing alternative on Appsumo for Socialbee which basically has the same features as Buffer but at $50 for lifetime. Pretty amazing.

I personally also like to use Focuster which automatically schedules my day! :)

I have got accustomed to using org-mode + orgzly ( Mobile ) + Google Cal for all personal projects and tracking. Trello + Slack for any projects that require collaboration with others.

I'm curious, why did you stop using Asana?

I mean, it's quite rare that someone would change their project management software and migrate to another solution.
