ActionTree encompasses what we all need to function efficiently: Management of Projects and management of Time. Both entities are represented by separate but related views - the "Projects" view and the "Timeline" view. A tap on the view title switches between the two. The Projects view enables the user to create hierarchal projects. The Timeline view - a view of reminders and events sorted by time. In the Projects view, you can break your projects down to manageable steps that can be collapsed, expanded, fitted with quick reminders, photos and notes. The Timeline view provides list of reminders and events sorted by time. New reminders and events can be created and edited. Links are provided to correlate between the Projects and the Timeline views.

About

UnProductive

Read full description

UnProductive offers three ways to overcome UnProductive-ness. - First, figure out what it is that you want by creating a simple Yes/No poll. See how your answer changes over time with the minimalistic heat map calendar. Personal Polls will provide you with clarity so you can focus on becoming productive. - Secondly, once you are on a mission, like "Leaving the house in the morning" or "Buying a new toy", use the simple Go/No-Go checklist. When your "Mission Is GO!" then you can launch without hesitation. The list of criteria auto resets at specified intervals so you can use it over and over again for reoccurring mini missions.  - And lastly, sometimes it's helpful to have little reminders of what "NOT To-Do", especially if that moment of weakness would be really unproductive or goes against your convictions. That's where the "(Not) To-Do" list comes in handy. Small mental sticky notes that keep you on track. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Apple Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ App T&Cs: https://palomino.co.nz/unproductive/tc#
