THE BASICS

Ready for a change?

Apps motivate us to form good habits, keep our lives organised and ultimately, save us a lot of precious time. Whether you want to reinvent yourself or make subtle changes for the better, count on these apps to guide you along the way.

Sleep well, wake happy

The app: Sleep Cycle
How it works: This app wakes you on your lightest sleep phase when your body is naturally ready; so no more shock-to-the-system wake-up calls. You can also learn more about the way your body behaves as you catch some shut eye with a nightly sleep analysis.

Get fit (at home)

The app: 30 Day Fitness Challenge
How it works: Choose a workout type, find your ideal difficulty level and stick to the plan for 30 days. The easy-to-follow bodyweight routines will help you get fit, without having to leave home.

Minimise traffic time

The app: Waze
How it works: No one likes wasting valuable minutes stuck in traffic. Waze saves you time, and frustration, by finding the best route and sharing real-time traffic updates.

Keep your passwords in one place

The app: LastPass
How it works: You’ve forgotten your password. Again. The solution? Create safe passwords and store your credentials securely all in one place with LastPass.

Grow healthy habits

The app: Streaks
How it works: Quit smoking, start meditating, maintain a healthy diet... Good intentions only get you so far. With daily tasks and reminders, Streaks is our go-to guide for forming consistent good habits and breaking bad ones.

Sharpen your mind

The app: Hexologic
How it works: Flex your brain muscles with this beautifully designed puzzler inspired by Sudoku. It will challenge your mental maths skills and put your mind at ease, all at the same time.

Get your life in order

The app: Any.do: To-Do List & Calendar
How it works: Organise your tasks and create to-do lists that you (and others) will actually stick to! With simple and straightforward features, Any.do is one of our favourite apps to get more done.

Read more, lots more

The app: Storytel
How it works: A virtual library with thousands of local and international titles will unearth your inner bookworm. Better yet, you can download books to read or listen to when you’re offline.
