iOS: What kind of tasks do you avoid and which ones do you finish on time? How far in advance do you plan tasks? How productive have you been this month? Zippy is a beautiful app for the iPhone that boosts your productivity by giving you insights into how you handle your to-do list.
At its core, this is a to-do list app with a lovely interface. Adding tasks is easy, you can quickly set a due date for each (or set no date), and assign tags to categorise the tasks. At any point, you can reschedule or delete the task. And when you get the reminder, you have an option to snooze it too. When you’re done, swipe left to mark it as completed.
In the menu bar, the “Insights” tab is where things get really interesting. Here, Zippy will take all your to-do list completions, missed dates and other data and put it into a neat infographic to provide an idea of your habits. In my case, I discovered a tendency to procrastinate on financial matters, which I hope to change now — and because it’s a statistic, I can track how well I’m making the change too. You can filter the insights by time as well: this week, last week, this month, last month or all time.
Zippy is on sale for $0.99 until 4 March, so grab it now.
