The Best Productivity Apps for Android in 2021

Whenever we hear the word ‘productivity’, the first thing that strikes in our heads is productivity at work. But none of us are to blame because you would usually find it in corporate books. While it is true that productivity is a common workplace jargon, in no way it implies that it means nothing outside the cubicle without those tools your company provides you with. The concept of productivity is something that you can imbibe in every component in your life and be at your best self by taking lesser time to finish tasks, be it in the kitchen, workplace, or anywhere.

Now for some, it may be quite difficult to relate productivity with mobile applications. But think about this; anything that allows you to do more with less resources is productive, right? And that is what mobile app development companies or lone developers do for us, by creating awesome applications that we can use in our daily lives to streamline our tasks.

Slack – New way to communicate with your team:

Software or app development companies find it quite messy to coordinate among teams, especially when the project being handled is of large scale. Lots of confusion, lack of proper communication, lack of progress sync, but just one solution – Slack. Slack brings you exactly what a large team needs to have in order to communicate appropriately and bring up some really positive results.

This ultimate internal communication tool supports the tools that enterprises usually use and its line of supported tools keep expanding. One of the long suites of this amazing mobile app is its super easy navigation. Given the fact that the app was created to serve long and short projects, traceability had to be an essential feature for the app. And Slack did take care of that, by instilling the app with deep search algorithm, which is pin point accurate in finding a specific conversation on the app, irrespective of how old or small the conversation is.

Skype – Communication tool for free calls and chat:

Skype by Microsoft needs no introduction. Launched and still known as the most reliable tool for video calls, Skype released its mobile app few years back. Unlike Slack, Skype presents itself as a lighter, less-technical tool for internal communication and provides internal connectivity, like a pro.

Among the plenty of things you can do with Skype, like video conferencing, texting, group chats etc., file sharing is one of the greatest that Microsoft has included, allowing a person to share any type of file, of any format. Finding a person is also quite easy on Skype as it only requires the email ID they signed up with. Another thing that adds up to the productivity factor of Skype mobile app is that it allows you to synchronize your chats with your computer, so that you can continue a conversation from where you left off the last time.

 Microsoft To Do – Task Manager and Daily Planner:

Another gem straight out of the mobile app development space, To-do is the perfect companion that reminds you about your daily chores, so that you can address your priorities every day and always stay on track. Microsoft To-do categories your daily tasks on the basis of priorities, and boosts your productivity by helping you complete tasks on time.

To-do can be synchronized with your Windows devices and provide a common interface for you to go through your objectives for the day. For even more ease, Microsoft To-do has a hamburger menu style list, where you can add your daily tasks like groceries, exercises, classes etc. For high-priority jobs, you can set reminders, of which Microsoft To-do will remind you when the time comes.

Polaris Office – runs on platforms such as Android, iOS, Windows and macOS:

Although Microsoft recently launched its MS Office suite for Android and iOS platforms, and Google also launched its office suite including applications like Docs, Sheets, Slides etc., android users did not find it very appealing to download each app separately, and same goes for Microsoft Office suite. A good substitute for both of these app suites is Polaris Office that, though doesn’t allow you to do as much as MS Office and Google Office suite, is good for viewing and editing word documents, edit/view excel documents and give office presentations with slides.

Unlike MS Office mobile and Google Office Suite, Polaris Office allows one to create or open any kind of office documents on a single screen interface with a floating button. Polaris Office truly allows you to edit your documents on the go and also synchronizes them with Google Drive, shall you choose to opt for it.

Evernote – Best Note Taking App:

Ever need a note, launch Evernote.

The last sentence may sound whimsical, but the mobile app developers at Evernote must have had similar intent when they sketched something so great, yet simple as Evernote. Evernote is the near-perfect tool for storing any type of information, be it text, PDF files, doc files, media files like photos, videos, audio, and more. It uses your email ID to identify you over multiple devices at the same time and synchronize your data right away to whichever device requests for it.

To make things easier for us, the mobile app also comes with a dedicated widget, which allows one to save media files straight from the camera, quickly create text notes and do even more. The application also allows businesses to synchronize projects and comment on documents for great teamwork and finishing tasks in time.
