No matter what we do, the most difficult thing is how to start and it is the same when coming to time management. Here are some apps that can help us to start to manage our time.
Reminder
I personally find Reminder very useful. It is easy to access and has a very clean page. In addition, you can have one list for every topic. When you have an incomplete task, you can just put it on the list and check it off when finished. Reminder will hide and separate all the completed task from the list. Back in high school, I like to write down the homework I have for all my class on Reminder. Because it is easy to go back to and I won’t lose it.

Days matter
Days matter is an app that counts down the days for you. It is similar to the calendar, but it will tell you how many days you have left to complete the task. It is a great app for keep track of your due days or any important days

Forest-stay focused
Forest is a great app when you want to force yourself to put down the phone to work or to enjoy life. It is a tree planting system and you can plant a tree by setting time. While the tree is growing, you must stay on the app and you will earn coins when the time is up. The coin can use to unlock more trees. For every tree you planted, it will appear on your forest for tracking. This app also allows you to invite your friend or to compete with your friends by the ranking. What distinguishes this app from other apps is that you can plant a real tree using the coins. The developer of the app is partnered with tree planning organization. When you spend 2500 coins to plant a real tree, the developer will fund the tree planning organization to plant a real tree on the earth. The app is easy to use and is very attractive, either from the competitive perspective or the morality perspective.
