What are your go-to apps for productivity and task management? I'm a web designer working from home, and prioritizing tasks has been challenging. I either get distracted or burn out from not taking breaks, so establishing a structured schedule and a to-do list based on priorities is important.

Sunsama Daily Planner guides you to plan your day intentionally — asking what’s actually realistic to finish, and helping you drag tasks into a calendar view with time blocks.

The app gives me the impression of the Structured meets mindfulness. You get both a schedule and a sense of clarity so you don’t overbook yourself.

Raycast is my favorite underrated productivity app (or plugin). 

It’s a lightning-fast keyboard launcher that lets you do just about everything without touching your mouse:

  • Open apps, search files, or run Google searches instantly

  • Manage calendar events or join Zoom calls with a keystroke

  • Control smart apps like Notion, Linear, or GitHub via extensions

  • Create to-dos, launch timers, convert currencies — all inline


It feels like command center energy for your brain — I use it daily to save microseconds that really add up, especially when I’m in a deep flow. If you're a shortcut-loving type, this one seriously levels up your workflow.
