5 Time Saving Tools for your phone to maximize productivity.

We are a mobile addicted population and we have no intent on trying to change  that habit but we do have some ideas to optimize your use of the portable computer you carry around with you all day.

Here are 5 time saving tools for your smartphone.

Forest

For those people that pick up their phone every-time it bings, bleeps or squawks comes a tool that rewards you if you stay off it. You set a timer (usually 25 minutes aka Pomodoro technique) and if you leave it alone your virtual tree grows. After a week you can see your “Forest” of trees and see your Forest of productivity visualized by all the trees. This writer personally enjoyed this app and found it a little addicting to leave the phone alone.


Westfax Mobile Fax

Faxing is alive and well. It’s a technology that has long stood the test of time in regards to security, legal matters as well as financial work. Sitting around waiting for a fax is a thing of the past. WestFax has a mobile app for Android and IOS that just keeps faxing simple and is very handy when one needs to receive a fax on the road or when not in the office. Sending a fax is as simple as knowing the phone number and importing a document. It just work!


Scanbot

This tool can be used with the WestFax Mobile app to capture documents, clean them up, crop them and make them into documents that can be faxed. Just point and click and the app will import the document and give you something you send via email or fax.


Google Keep

This little app just sneaks it’s way onto your phone the last few years. It’s surprising minimalist for a Google app and it looks like something they just bought, branded and released to the world. If you need to take a quick note, make a list or jot down an idea this app is perfect. You just open it and start typing. It organizes it like post it notes all laid out and easy to access. It’s simplicity is it’s best feature.


Buffer

Social media used to be a small passive activity usually performed by the intern or whoever had time. In recent years Social media can and will make or break a company. Organizations now hire an Social media staff to handle these functions but not all businesses can afford a full time social media manager. Buffer is a tool that enables a small business to create a large number of social media posts and schedule them over the week on a schedule. This allows a small business to spend an hour or two and get all the social media done and forget about it until next week.
