A thread of my top 10 productivity apps for the iPad - theyโre game-changing๐
๐ 1. @unread_app
This is an RSS feed for the iPad. Essentially, you sign up for the RSS feeds for the blogs you like and every-time a new blog post is released you get updated in the app. This is a great way of keeping in touch with blogs, without being inundated with emails.

๐ 2. @instapaper
This is a great read it later app. Every time I stumble across an article that interests me, I share it to Instapaper. You can also highlight the articles, so if you want to revisit ideas you can do so directly on the app.

๐ 3. @draftsapp
Drafts is what I use for quick-capturing any notes that I need to take on my iPad. I particularly like it because of its speed and because it's got an Apple Watch widget, which makes it easy to dictate notes when I'm on the go.

Shortform gives you really good summaries of loads of popular books. The insights are a lot deeper than any other app I've used - basically every chapter in the book will have its own detailed summary. Want a free trial? shortform.com/ali

Although this is only available on ios + it's quite expensive, it's a super pretty to-do list manager.
Tbh I only use it to organise the different projects I'm working on (like my book) and the rest of the time I just use a piece of paper to track tasks.

This is my favourite way of taking handwritten notes on the iPad Pro. I like Notability because of its simplicity and because of the way it handles writing with the Apple Pencil.
See my video on how I take notes on my iPad Pro:

One of my 2021 goals is to become a concept artist. And any meaningful progress towards that goal is productive.
Procreate is great for my art lessons as it lets me share my iPad screen + draw things digitally.

Since 2014, this has been my journaling app of choice. It's amazing because it's beautifully designed and syncs across all my devices. Plus it's really nice looking back through the journal and reading your thoughts/feelings.

๐9. @AmazonKindle
This is one of my most used apps. I've got a library with lots of books on the Kindle, and I'll just take lots of notes and highlight the things that resonate with me.

๐ 10. @NotionHQ
I use Notion for almost everything in my life. Especially all the stuff that relates to creating content and helping my team with things. I've got a playlist on Notion if you want to learn more about it -
