Busy people of the world – unite! We all have a smart phone in our pocket, and sure they’re great for sending a quick photo or Skyping while you’re away on business. But for most of us, they remain smart phones with great untapped potential! This post is all about apps that help busy individuals gain some control back in their schedules!
Workflowy
Workflowy is a note taker, and no, not like the ‘notes’ app you already have installed on your phone. While the stock notes app allows you to write things down it does become messy, disorganised and cluttered. Workflowy is an app that allows you to take notes and organise them into subheadings so you can track your thoughts and know exactly where everything is. Here is a YouTube clip on how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSmbnaPZVHE
Swiftkey Keyboard
I think we can all relate to how annoying it is to write emails etc from our phone because the keypad is so small. 90% of your time writing the email is backspacing the mush that you’ve just written or the predictive text and 10% is actually writing what you want to write. Swiftkey is a free download that enables you to type just by dragging your fingers over the letters to make up words, say good riddance to the millions of taps you once had to endure!

CloudOn
This app allows you to view and edit your Microsoft documents on your iPhone or tablet – super handy for business meetings! Here is a clip on how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK0OvRJZKvs
