Who doesn’t wish they had 25 hours in a day? An extra hour can make all difference, especially if you are a busy Executive. But since we only have 24, the best way to free up some time is to get more done in less time. This is where mobile phones can help. There are several mobile apps that can help you maximize time, whether while commuting, prepping for a meeting or just organizing your thoughts. Let’s check them out.

1.     Email Apps

Yahoo or whatever email service you use, having the app helps you free up time. Of course, there should be an adequate work-life balance when using an email app. The point is you have access to your inbox whenever and wherever.

2.     Document Processing Apps
Everyone is going paperless, more so a document processing app (think pdf reader, Microsoft Office, Google docs, etc) helps you view an important document on the go. You do not need to get on a computer to access your document, it is right there in your palm. How is that for cutting time processing time?

3. Mobile Banking App
There are several mobile banking apps that will save you a lot of stress and time in visiting the branch. One such app is the Access Bank Mobile Banking App. This app gives you real-time access to your account in Access Bank at zero subscription cost. Why go to the bank and join queues when in less than a minute you can: purchase airtime, pay bills, transfer funds, confirm or cancel cheques and check your account balance. This app is a time saver available 24/7.

4.   Notepads
Ideas come at unlikeliest of time. Maybe when you are in the car, or at a restaurant. Eureka moments can be captured with note taking apps. You can scribble crudely on them and organize later. What’s more, some have inbuilt reminders and to-do list features, which help you stay sharp and smart. You can start the preparation of a document on a notepad app and transfer to your preferred word processor. ColorNote, Ultimate Notepad, and Keep My Notes are few of the high ranking notepad apps that can help you stay ahead.
