App Essentials: CloudMagic (Review)
[appstore id=”721677994″ style=”custombox1″] Cloud Magic is a wonderful iOS app to manage your productivity and workflow. I use a great number of cloud services to manage my daily productivity. This includes note-taking, project management, and generic ToDo Lists. Over the past year, I found myself struggling to make it through the workday – simply because my productivity took a hit – I was off task too often. About the same time, I started using Cloud Magic to manage all of my email accounts. The beauty of the app is in the ability to create...

Platform: iOS Cost:$2.99 Another great todo app. I found that for 2.99 it was a good application to extend the standard Reminders App. If you are like me and tend to try to have syncing to desktop services, and a slew of easy to access resources, this app does not weigh in very well. After a few days of using the app, I was bogged down in adding tasks, which defeats the purpose of an inbox task app. For my system, I greatly prefer additional apps and services, but this is a capable app and may work for you and your system. The Video Review Overall Well, this is a good task app (one of...

Platform: iOS Cost: Free Priority Matrix is a great todo list application for those of us who use Matrix Views to organize and prioritize our task lists. Unfortunately, I found the app a bit cumbersome to use and went with GNEO instead. Priority Matrix does have a web-interface, which is a huge plus, but I am a bit concerned that they have not monetized the app yet. we are all waiting to see how much the services we have been using will cost… So far this app is a steal. The Video Review Overall I liked Priority Matrix when I first started using it. After a few days, I started...

With Calendar integration, I never miss a meeting or activity that I have scheduled. This is a great app to help you manage your busy calendar and build in times for yourself. The Video Review Overall Daily Routine is a good buy if you need some help juggling your...
read moreApp Essentials: Gneo (ToDo)
Platform: iOS Cost:$4.99 GNEO is a productivity app geared for helping you manage and sync your todo lists. In my search for productivity tools that I can use on the iPad, I always shied away from GNEO – simply because of the price. After adding it to my wish-list, GNEO went on sale and I picked it up on. My only regret is that I did not purchase it earlier. As a fan of the GTD Mentality and Pomodoro, I use GNEO to manage all of my tasks with ease. The only drawback to GNEO is that lack of a Mac App or Cloud Platform. If I could access and maintain my GNEO tasks from a web-interface,...
