Designed by a student, for students, Lifemaster is the ultimate tool in the arsenal of any young person. --LIFEMASTER INCLUDES-- THE TODAY MODULE The central hub where you can manage everything going on in a day – it collates all the tasks to do and goals you’ve set from everywhere in the app, and puts it together in one clear page, showing you what you’ve done and what’s left to do. THE SCHOOL MODULE The School module keeps all your academic goals and tasks organized, keeping you on top of all school-related work and ready to excel. You can input homework, projects, assignments and tests, and the school module clearly shows you what’s due in the next day, what you need to do to prepare for tomorrow, what’s happening later in the week, and revision you can do. You can even create groups for your different classes, and share school tasks with them. THE TIMETABLE MODULE: The timetable module stores not your weekly school and homework schedule, and all the subject details you need to know, to make sure you’re oriented right at school and are prepared for everything that comes. THE CALENDAR MODULE: The calendar module is where you can plan, manage, and see events – from after-school clubs, to family events, to meeting up with friends. You can view any date’s events through the calendar, and also use it to browse tasks from previous days. THE REMINDERS MODULE: The Reminders module will make sure you never forget anything – you can set recurring reminders, and view colour-coded reminders for that day, or for the whole week. Reminders can be set independent of tasks, or when you make a task, you can be reminded of it through this section.

Notes are colour-coordinated and easy to browse through, and can help you remember any thoughts, lists, or ideas you have throughout the day.

You can set up habits, colour-coded by category, and view your progress/ success clearly over the course of a week, a month, or a year. It gives you a clear overview of your life, and enables you to hold yourself accountable, reward yourself when you’ve met your targets, or know where to improve. THE CREATIVE MODULE: The creative module helps you plan and execute long-term creative projects. Within categories, you can set up projects, write a clear goal for them which you see every time you view a project, and within it, set goals and targets with dates to do them by. It keeps you in control, and at whatever pace you choose, continuing to pursue creative projects that you enjoy – managing them in a stress-free, orderly, strategic, and calm way.
