Favourite apps and tools used on a daily basis and can’t live without. Best of all, most are free to use. Enjoy!
Evernote – Used for note taking, research and storing random bits and pieces of information in one place and accessible on the go.
Newton – Simple yet powerful email app. The beauty of this app is that you only have to add an email account once and then it’s synced across all your devices, so you don’t have to setup your account several times.
Feedly – Read all your favourite blogs, publications and more in one place and clutter free.
Adblock Plus – Block all those annoying banners, pop-ups and video ads.
LibreOffice – A free, powerful alternative office suite.
Buffer – A simple, clean social media management and scheduling tool.
Seconds Pro – A great interval timer app for workouts, that also speaks!
Spotify – Great for discovering and listening to new music.
Ubuntu – Hate Windows and don’t like the Mac? Why not try Ubuntu. It works on any old PC (or Mac) and will definitely run faster than Windows or OSX on your old computer.
VM Player – Run Windows, Linux and other OS apps at the same time without rebooting. Test new software apps or a new OS without messing up your whole computer. Use it to surf the web in an isolated and safe environment. If you mess anything up or get infected by a virus while surfing the web, simply delete the virtual desktop and copy a new one in. Simple as that. No need to spend hours rebuilding your whole computer. Free for Windows / Linux, paid for Mac.
Five Minute Journal & Productivity Planner – The simplest way to ensure focussing on the good things in life and only the most important tasks for the day.
