My complications are Messages, Spark, Date and Calendar.
I have an Apple Watch series zero with the Utility watch face. DO YOU HAVE AN APPLE WATCH? SHOW US YOUR WATCH FACE TELL US ABOUT IT. IF YOU WERE IN CHARGE AT APPLE, WHAT WOULD YOU ADD OR CHANGE?Ī feature that I've wanted for ages is Siri added to iBooks on iOS so that it is possible to say: 'Hey, Siri“ ”Turn Page Forward", surely this is really easy to add and would be a very useful accessibility feature. Doing this homescreen exercise has made me put Drafts into the Today widget list to try to utilise it more. The Apple News widget, the BBC Sport widget and the BBC Weather widget just for a quick overview of what's happening in the world and what the local weather is likely to be (it's London, obviously it's raining). My today view widgets are Todoist Today for obvious reasons. WHAT TODAY VIEW WIDGETS ARE YOU USING AND WHY? The iPhone is used about 5 or 6 times a day the main times are in the morning before I get up and then in the evening for either an audiobook or to catch up on podcasts.
My iPad is mainly a consumption device so I don't use it everyday, as a motor impaired user I find it much easier to get things done on my Mac which I spend most of the day on. HOW MANY TIMES A DAY DO YOU USE YOUR IPHONE/IPAD? I realise using Drafts will save me time but going to the individual app is a habit that is difficult to break. I know I should be using Drafts more, it has been on my homescreen for an eternity but I always find myself going into the appropriate app for the writing that I'm going to do eg. WHAT APP DO YOU KNOW YOU'RE UNDERUTILISING Todoist is so simple that you don't get trapped in there once it is launched thus you spend more time being productive. Probably Todoist, having a convenient list of tasks to tick off and therefore seeing that badge count come down is always a great feeling.
Many people would include their Social Media apps here but I seem to have a hate/hate relationship with current social media. I wouldn't describe any of the apps I use as a Guilty Pleasure but I love audiobooks, being paralysed it is much easier to listen to audio than access a physical book or continuously be looking at a screen to use an ebook so I would say Audible and iBooks. Other apps that I access on a daily basis are Day One not so much for a journal but enables me to easily keep a medical diary (essential in my situation) and also Ulysses for blog post ideas etc. My notes app is one that has caused much head scratching, I think I've been through every new/popular one on the market but have ended up back with Evernote, it has the feature set I require and on the Mac I feel the Web Clipper is unrivalled. My task management app of choice at the moment is Todoist, I seem to go between Todoist and OmniFocus, however, Todoist has suck for the last few months as I found OmniFocus had features that I just didn't make use of. Bus圜al is my calendar of choice on the Mac therefore it seemed natural to use the iOS app.
For my personal life Spark and Bus圜al are the two that stand out, for many years I just used the Mail app but several bugs (such as notifications being extremely flaky) sent me on a quest which ended in Spark which I find extremely stable and easy to use. My homescreen changes on a regular basis but there are some apps that have established themselves as mainstays. You’ll be surprised at how powerful and easy to use OmniPlan is. If you've got a use for project planning, OmniPlan is the place to go. My use is actually pretty small but some OmniPlan users manage giant projects in fields like construction, software, and mergers and acquisitions just to name a few. Clients love the nice, clean reports generated by OmniPlan showing my plans for their legal problems. I use OmniPlan for project planning on the legal side. OmniPlan includes powerful project planning tools like filtering, violation resolution, leveling, earned value analysis, and Monte Carlo simulations allowing it to match even its most difficult-to-use competitors.
OmniPlan has a clean, simple interface giving you everything you need with just a few clicks.Īt the same time, OmniPlan also delivers power.
The Omni Group group has been making difficult software easy since they first started. The fact that it’s easy to pick up OmniPlan shouldn’t surprise you. This week’s sponsor, OmniPlan is the exception. Go to any big company and you will find somebody in a room somewhere responsible for project planning that spends weeks at a time in seminars trying to learn to use their Byzantine project planning software.
