We are no strangers to digital tools for personal use. Messaging apps, social media platforms, and even budgeting apps are part of our daily lives. Then, what about our workday? asks Paul Boudet, Co-Founder and CEO Meetric.

We spend about eight hours every day at work. In today’s age, this could even be working from home, which can make us easily distracted.

Luckily for us, there are many digital tools that can transform our workflow and make us more productive, efficient, and organized.

Here are five must-have digital apps that will supercharge your workday

Trello app

Trello

In a nutshell, Trello is a platform to manage both team-based projects and personal tasks.

What makes this app unique is its distinctive visual approach. Projects are managed with boards, lists, and cards that look like post-it notes.

You can even add timelines, calendars, and attachments. This allows you to track every aspect of each task. It also ensures that every teammate is up to date with what the others are doing.

With Trello, you can better visualize and organize your projects. You and your team can streamline the workflow, making things easier for every member.

Around App

Lose the Zoom fatigue wit Around

Around

We are now in the age of video calls. But it is almost impossible to multitask while the video crowds your screen when you’re using Zoom or Google Meet.

Around is designed for the era of remote working. The company has made it their mission to transform video chats into inclusive affairs.

The app’s camera uses artificial intelligence (AI) to locate your face — even if you move! — and crop it into a circle, removing distractions in the background. Even better, Around uses AI-based filtering to suppress background noises automatically.

Every team member feels like they are part of the conversation. By putting a new spin on video calls, Around makes your video calls more relaxed and less stressful.

Notion app

Get organised with Notion

Notion

Do you have trouble organising all your documents? It is often a chore to switch from one app to another, trying your best to dig for that elusive Excel sheet.

Make your life easier with Notion, one of the fastest growing productivity apps.

Think of it as a powerful, all-in-one workspace. The app provides building blocks and templates, which can be used as starting points to create any kind of online collaborative documents

Layouts range from blank pages to calendars, lists, and spreadsheets. You can even add team members to the workspace to collaborate on projects.

Whether you are using this app for a team project or for personal tasks, Notion provides endless possibilities. Once you get comfortable with it, Notion is sure to transform your workday.

Momentum

Momentum helps you get productive

Momentum

How many browser windows or tabs do you open each day? Probably a lot!

Momentum addresses this in a very smart way — by replacing a new tab page with your personal productivity dashboard.

The idea behind it is simple and sweet: each new tab page becomes a dashboard for inspiration and productivity, motivating you to do your best.

The page is backdropped by a random scenic photo. It also features inspirational quotes and prompts for your main focus of the day. You can even include to-do lists, links, bookmarks, and weather information.

With Momentum, you get a fresh boost of motivation each time you open a new tab while delighting your eyes. Keep yourself focused, inspired, and productive with this unique digital tool.

Meetric helps you get a handle on your day

Meetric

Meetings are an essential part of the workday. But they often suffer from poor communication, disparate notes, and weak agendas.

Through Google Calendar, for each meeting, you know who will be there (guest list) and where it’ll be (location/video link). But there’s one important missing piece — the what: what actually happened in the meeting:  the key points in the conversations, the decisions made and the next steps.

Introducing Meetric, a product connected to your calendar to easily capture meeting notes and todos for anyone in the meeting, in a collaborative way.

The secret sauce? Notes & todos from past meetings are automatically surfaced in the next meeting – no more forgetting what he/she said.

With Meetric, nothing discussed in meetings ever gets lost and team accountability gets a boost.
