Task management is one of the most important activities that you perform on a daily basis.
But have you noticed that the process is taking you a long time just because you are keeping all your thoughts in your mind instead of writing them down? It’s called projecting “stuff” on a piece of paper or within an app where you can easily plan and execute your workflow.
Speaking of task planning and tracking, we have handpicked some of the best apps to improve the experience for you. Besides, these apps are a great way of getting tasks out of your head & into a virtual notebook where everything is managed and accessible whenever needed.
The task planning process encompasses the actual “planning” phase for any activity. Look at it this way: stakeholders come up with an idea. They need a project manager for the implementation and successful execution of that idea.

Let’s discuss some of the best apps that you can use, not only as a project manager but as an individual contractor to smoothen the workflow.
