Business

The ability to answer emails and conference call is old news but mobiles have become so involved that a number of office based services can now be conducted via smartphone. For instance, drafting professional word documents has never been easier, nor has the ability to create PDFs and high-quality images—all from one’s phone. It may take a little time to become accustomed to writing professionally away from the office, and using a smaller display screen and keyboard, yet the freedom of being able to draft documents anywhere is very good news for big and small businesses, alike.

Scheduling

Mobile calendars can be as simple or involved as one needs them to be. If the biggest issue revolves around a busy family dynamic then consider using an app that can be accessed by any specifically chosen mobiles, desktop and laptop computers. The best-rated normally have a feature that will update all linked calendars simultaneously. What’s also great is that calendar colours and layouts can be chosen to help personalise the experience. Note: Before granting calendar editing access to all family member, take various maturity levels into consideration first, so as to prevent anyone from accidentally deleting very important dates.

Budget

In addition to many banks creating mobile-friendly sites, there are also plenty of budgeting apps available. The ability to update income and expenses on the go can greatly reduce banking and bill-paying errors that could lead to fees. When choosing a budgeting app first read the user reviews and then go for the highest rated that suits specific needs. If trying to get a clear picture of where the money’s going then install an app that offers a grid or graph feature that takes into account expenses for food, entertainment, travel, etc. Remember, too, that there are plenty of electronic financial planning books available but they are rarely free of charge.

Fitness

No software will do the heavy lifting required to become fit, yet mobile apps are a brilliant way to keep up on a number of health-related issues. Looking to lose weight? Food tracking has proven to be very effective and many programmes can help guide progress by offering motivational support and health tips. A number of apps are diet-specific, whereas others are flexible enough to be used for a variety of different eating plans. The best apps also have tracking options for cardio, walking and other workouts—though a combination of two different apps (one for food, the other for fitness) may offer the best range of assistance. Look for one with menu assistance at restaurants, shopping guides for grocery stores, and an accurate pedometer, if possible.

Though various tech advancements are the reason life’s ramped up in speed, there are many tools available to help tackle a life that is packed with a multitude of obligations. It seems only fitting that the progress that helped shift the world into overdrive can also help busy people tackle the intricacies of modern life. So why not use the good that’s available? Take a look at daily activities that could use streamlining and organisation and then find solid mobile apps that offer assistance. Become even better friends with technology so that life cane remain just as busy and fulfilling but feel far more manageable.
