to-do list applications there are more and more being added every single day and it is
a growing set of tools that can help you to be more productive and balance your day ahead
but there are new applications Making Waves all the time and we love to cover them here
and keep productive because it gives us a direction where to do this application to
head in the future we did it recently with note-taking applications and today we're doing
it with to-do list applications so these are five new to-do list applications that are
making waves in the productivity space welcome my name is Francesco very excited to dive
into this lot for you this video today is brought to you by tool finder you'll find
to find a linked below and it is something that we've created to help you find the best
productivity tool we've got a brand new newsletter as well which goes out twice a month covering
all of the latest productivity guides resources and news for you to keep updated so let's
dig a little bit deeper into these to-do list applications and I'm gonna be diving into
them in a little bit of detail but I'll be linking all of the accounts below if you want
to go a little bit further but the First on our list is actually one that is fairly new
to me and I discovered it because it kept cropping up quite routinely and it's Before
Sunset and it's sort of like a a lighter weight version of the like some sun Sama trying to
help you focus on more mindful productivity to some extent with your task management now
before Sunset is pretty simple in its nature it allows you to add tasks and be able to
assign a duration to them and be able to plot them in a calendar that lives alongside your
task list but there are a few nice things about this you can utilize AI inside of this
to be able to plan your day for you this is becoming much more popular in applications
like motion and many more that are trying to take advantage of artificial intelligence
to reorganize a better suit your day now as you can imagine it's not fully ready yet in
terms of it ability AI is evolving and understanding what actually tasks mean but this is a really
interesting example of a more mindful productivity tool that helps you do that and what it does
is it plots all of those tasks on a calendar for you and allows you to sync with the likes
of Google Calendar and at the bottom which I find particularly interesting is you've
got a view of your day and they're really nice view because you can see the sun rise
and set and allows you to shut down your day much like sansama does and also allows you
to start a break which is something that other productivity applications really do ignore
sometimes this application reminds me of an older app called Friday which was out for
some time but naturally shut down last year I believe and it is a shame but this application
is more condensed version of Friday and it seems like a really interesting to do this
application that's on the market right now it does have a pretty steep Pro Plan to be
honest and a lot of that is unlimited AI Tech and analytics the analytics themselves give
you insight into your week after a few weeks of using Sunset Before Sunset you basically
get to see a window into where you spend your time where you spend your energy levels and
how long you spend it which is quite an interesting perspective so next up is one called superlist
and this is actually from the creators of Wunderlist which was a productivity application
a to-do list app that was launched a fair few years ago now where the founders and the
team are pretty much back to take their the new experience to the next level for tasks
and although this is not fully released yet currently in a private beta this application
looks really interesting it's got multiplayer to-do list experience and you're probably
wondering multiplayer okay I've got that you probably don't if you're using something like
todoist then the application itself is not in real time whilst you can see updates from
other people pretty much instantaneously you do not see the curses of people moving around
and actions they actually make and in superlist this is one of the USPS of part of it and
it seems like a really interesting approach to task management particularly one of the
things that is interesting about superlist is that the concept itself of task management
is about you being able to organize stuff in real time maybe you're in a meeting or
maybe you are on in real time organizing stuff and you don't want somebody to add something
before you and that sort of noise and mess can really get in the way so this might be
an interesting solution to that they also have the ability to create notes meeting lists
and things like that and also they have what looks like some pretty neat Integrations with
Gmail and other such applications as well as the adding of a multimedia as well to take
full advantage of the screen real estate the superlist an interesting bet if anybody's
in the private beta please do reach out to me but of course I'm in touch with a superlist
team so as soon as it does come out I will obviously cover it that next up is routine
in this application again is what's been called the most advanced calendar for productive
people and it's available on a few devices now Mac Windows iOS and web and the experience
is gorgeous the application allows you to not only plan your today in this lovely timeline
like view but also allows you to plan your week with your tasks in mind and I really
love the approach to the calendar blocking that they've taken because it really does
help you to realign your tasks make better use of your time so for somebody that really
likes to use calendar alongside tasks this is probably going to be one of your Best Bets
but the application itself still doesn't have a full pricing although as of this video they
do have one that is coming soon called professional which will give you access to additional features
that are not available yet but the core features look like they're part of the free plan and
the Power Pro Plan or Premium plan or professional plan is starting from 12 per month which is
actually much lower than a lot of the Daily Planet applications out there there's other
features as well like Pages which allows you to take notes and there's a fantastic feature
on Mac and I believe it's on Windows 2 called console which allows you to actually save
Tasks and notes directly into the right locations really instantaneously and it's one of the
best experiences I've seen because when you open up you can not only see the events that
are coming up your next meeting you could join that if you wanted to but you can also
see much more high level of depth next up is time strike now times stripe has been around
for a little bit of time but its application is becoming much more relevant in today's
world with to-do list applications like a lot of ones we talked about and many many
more that are on the market of course A lot of them are orientated around you organizing
your day week or month and that's really it it's very much in your court to organize that
time straight approaches in a slightly different way because what it does is it helps you to
plan your life it actually has this view called Horizons which is the primary view inside
of time strike which takes you from day week month and all the way yearly to where you
want it to all the way to your life goals and what's different about this is we always
tend to get lost with to-do applications because they're very on the ground some in that David
Allen who wrote getting things done often refers to as 10 000 feet rule you're so close
to the ground well not close but compared to 50 000 feet you're closer and you see stuff
in detail you don't really see the big picture view and naturally this application wants
to help you do that it also has some other abilities like boards for being able to see
specific lists that you might want to set up you can also use some of their pre-saved
templates and boards that are already part of that which are actually really helpful
to do so and they've got a function called climbs too which allows you to copy habits
and routines that instantly get instantly populate your timestrike account which helps
you to get going with those and another thing I really like about it is it's got this beautiful
clock view which allows you to see your life as a perspective of how long you've got to
go or perceived got to go and it's very daunting but very sobering and this is something that
I think was really well summarized by Mark Gilroy who did a fantastic video on YouTube
about time stripe so if you did want to read listen to that one I'll make sure to include
a video about it below next up is akiflow again I talk about marketflow quite a lot
because the application itself is a nice combination between tasks and calendar much like we see
with routine and sunsama but the application tends to go a little bit further and much
like centama2 it does have the ability to bring in experiences from other applications
so you can bring in Gmail start emails that you have maybe click up maybe Trello maybe
notion it's really up to you what you bring up on there's quite an advanced amount of
Integrations and those Integrations mean that you can build a dashboard that you like so
if you and your team are using click up and you don't like click UPS view for some reason
or you don't like trello's view or you use both of them you can combine them in akiflow
and that's quite a different approach to what a lot of productivity applications are doing
at the moment especially in a to-doosa application space and that concept is called consolidation
and it's a really interesting approach to managing your to-do list so akiflow has been
on my radar for some time and of course I believe it's definitely Making Waves in productivity
space as one that's pushing the boundaries of what we think of as a to-doist application
so I hoped you enjoyed today's feature folks if you're looking for any to do this application
