There is not a single app that I cannot live without. There are two of them. No, I am not greedy and can only choose one: both work in harmony to improve my daily life.
And to shock you even more, I’m paying for both of these apps. Not only to make sure I get all the features in both apps, but because these apps are so valuable to me that I want to do what I can to make sure every app stays “alive” (i.e. stays in development).
Technically, these apps serve two functions. Todoist (available everywhere) is one of The best productivity appsIt helps you plan what you want to do. Because if you only do the things you remember to do, or the things you’ve always done, I’m sure some things will go wrong on a given day.
Drafts (only on iPhone) is where all my writing begins, as it has the functionality of a swiss army knife to do things with your text as soon as you type it. For example, I took notes Mrs. Marvel Finishing Scene and Post-credits Explain there, then send it to my work computer via the “send email” function.
But I hardly scratch why I love these apps, so let’s dig deeper.
Todoist
Project management is a pretty dry phrase, but one you should think about if you find your plans exploding in your face. Especially when you realize you could have done something better with your planning.
don’t go all out”atomic habits (Opens in a new tab)“You have, but when I realize there’s something I want to do, I like to break this project down into the smallest actions. Take for example my next vacation. I have a Todoist vacation form that starts with ‘Checking to see if there are any specific clothes I want for this trip,'” It ends with “Loading an airline ticket into the iPhone wallet app.” In the middle of this complete mess, I have “finding and cleaning 3-1-1 toiletry containers” and a flight-specific list of restaurants and landmarks I want to check out.
Yes, I am a professor of micromanagement. But Todoist makes all of this super easy, as you can tag, repeat, and schedule to your heart’s content. I also have custom filters, so I can easily see all work related tasks that are due today, tasks that are out of my schedule for today etc.
Todoist is free to download, but paying $4 to $5 per month (depending on monthly or annual billing) removes restrictions on active projects, collaborators, filters, and activity history. It also adds attributes and reminders.

Drafts
I didn’t like Todoist though, until I realized how well it worked with one of my other favorite iPhone apps: Drafts. An independent app from developer Agile Tortoise (which may be a solo process run by Greg Pierse), Drafts is where all my scripts start.
why is that? When you open drafts, you’re instantly greeted with a clean new text file. All his lists are hidden at that moment because you are here to write something Currently. To capture the concept, text, or whatever you are jotting. “Capture” ideas is a concept I became fascinated with, in part because of the podcasting work Merlin Man (He came up with the idea of Inbox Zero that many rejected.)
Writing is only half the fun of drafts. Press the upper right corner button, and you will get a list of several functions for processing this text. You can submit via email (or submit to Trello, which I use at work when I notice something that Tom’s guide should cover). You can tweet your own text. You can do all kinds of things.
Drafts is free to download, but Drafts Pro ($1.99/month or $19.99/year) lets you sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch apps, create and edit actions, and add more features.
