Phew, it's Friday; you have almost made it to the end of the working week. It's not quite the weekend yet, however, so are you in need of some help to boost your working day and perk up your office? Look no further... check out our list of free apps designed to do that exactly that!
1.Timeful
Timeful is an app that syncs with your calendars and gives you smart suggestions on how to use your time both wisely and effectively. Designed to schedule things so you can get them done, it acts as both a calendar and to-do list. This app provides all the help you need to make the most of your time.
2. Daily Water
With fewer than 1 in 250 people in the UK meeting their total daily fluid needs with water, this seems to be an app that people should really use. Since your body is made up of more than 65% water, it is essential to drink water throughout the day and ensure you stay hydrated as minimal drops in hydration can negatively influence your ability to concentrate on your work. Drinking water keeps your mind clear and focused on the task at hand. Daily Water helps you track the amount of fluid you drink and reminds you to drink water at the right time.
3. The Advanced 7-Minute Workout
The last thing you want to do when you get home from a hard day's work is go to the gym, right? Then why not do your workout at work? The New York Times offers a free 7-minute workout app you can do in the office on your lunch break. The app acts as a step-by-step guide, offering animated illustrations of the exercises as well as a timer and audio cues to help you get the most out of your seven minutes. Remember: any exercise will benefit the body and provide positive effects.
4. Silva Relaxation
Work stress can sometimes become overwhelming. Silva has created an app that users are saying is the 'perfect way to relax, unwind and de-stress'. Simple relaxation techniques such as controlled breathing and meditation can help you manage your stress and keep your life in balance.
5. Break
Who doesn't need a break from their work every once in a while to watch a funny video? Break is the perfect app, with tons of hilarious videos and pictures including epic fails, pranks and stunts. You can even share these with your colleagues to perk up your workplace. Or be like Mary J who uses this app 'every day to take a laugh break from work'.
6. Camellia Tea Timer
How many times have you been making tea for your colleagues and forgotten about it, forcing them to drink the strongest cup of tea known to man or making you start all over again? Now you no longer have to worry about that. With this app you just choose the type of tea you want, press 'start' and the app will let you know when your tea has brewed to perfection.
7. Evernote
Evernote is 'the modern workspace that helps you be your most productive self'. It can be used to capture notes, ideas and project details and timelines, helping you keep organised and making sure nothing slips through the cracks.
