You can use OmniFocus to keep track of all your tasks arranged by project, place, person, or date. All essential info in one place, whether it’s a shopping list, agenda for your next meeting or DIY projects for the home. Described by happy users as ‘the ultimate brain dump’ tool.

2. Things – £6.99

Another strong choice and a slick, feature-packed organisation app, this is a big favorite amongst productivityists. And yes, that’s now a word. One delighted user raves that Things is ‘clean, fast, and easy to use. Makes organising tasks a joy. Cloud sync is super-fast and seamless. A brilliant App that I use every day.’

3. 30/30 – FREE

An app that proclaims it will ‘help you get stuff done’, 30/30 is a relative newcomer to the productivity app world, blending lists and timing features in a stylish and user-friendly interface. This one’s great news for those who like to colour-code their lives, and works just as crisply in portrait or landscape.

4. Any.Do – FREE

Users feel motivated to get things done so they can strike items off their to-do list with joy.

5. Evernote – FREE

The productivity app that’s a household name already amongst those who like to make task-management an art form. Evernote can be used for simple notetaking or can be customized for more complex tasks, widely agreed to be a rare breed in apps in that it actually helps more than you thought it would. Here’s some particularly glowing user praise for Evernote: ‘I use it for a number of quite different tasks; from keeping ideas for books in order to creating lesson plans for my job as a teacher.
