Stay Healthy Using MedCoach Medication Reminder
Organizing your health needs is just as important as keeping up-to-date on your finances and errands. If you and your family are taking prescription medications, knowing what meds need a refill and when they’re eligible gets pretty confusing. With MedCoach, you can:
- Create a personalized schedule for taking your medications
- Set reminders for refills and doses
- Set up a pill log
- Connect right to the pharmacy when it’s time for a refill
- And look up information for reliable medicines when the need arises
This app is free for iPhone and Android users, and it saves you so much time and money. You’ll also never have to wait around for a prescription, plus you can provide healthcare professionals with detailed medication history.
Do Everything with Evernote
Evernote is easily one of the most popular note-taking apps. Whether you’re creating your to-do list for the day ahead, researching vacation information, writing down shopping lists, or dictating ideas to yourself, it does everything. You can share notes and notebooks with others, keep up with reviews of stores, restaurants, and attractions that you like or dislike, and you can view everything for free on your Android or iOS device and on the web-based application.
Organize Your Food Prep with DinnerSpinner
It takes a lot of organization to plan and execute healthy meals for yourself and your family. If you’re familiar with recipes from AllRecipes.com, you’ll love their DinnerSpinner app. Browsing recipes is as easy as it is on the web, except that you can also create shopping lists based on what you need for the meals you want to make. For recipes you particularly love, you can scan ingredients into the app, which will let you know that you need the items for a particular dish.
DinnerSpinner also makes it much simpler to create meals for people who have food allergies or dietary restrictions. For example, if you’re cooking for a vegetarian, a vegan, or someone with a gluten allergy, it will help you find safe recipes and ingredients. You can also seek recipes with short prep times for those evenings when you don’t have a minute to spare. Both the app and the site are free for iOS and Android users.
Manage Your Finances Using Manilla
Keeping up with your finances is unquestionably a hassle. Specifically, keeping up with due dates, the amount of money you have in the bank, and bank statements can all get pretty frustrating. Manilla is a lifesaver because it allows you to keep track of and pay your bills, manage your reward programs, and stay on top of any subscriptions.
With this app, free for Android and iOS users, you can see your statements for credit cards, utilities, and luxuries, as well as all of your bank accounts. You can also set up alert reminders so that you won’t miss important due dates and risk late fees—or, worse, losing out on a repayment plan because of a missed payment.
Enjoy House Cleaning with Home Routines
Some people might not believe that you need to stay organized if you want to clean your house, but that’s not true. If you have a hard time staying on a schedule—something that is especially difficult when you work from home—try Home Routines, free on iOS devices.
You can create regimented schedules, such as 15 minutes for cleaning the bathroom or half an hour for doing laundry, either daily or on specific days of the week. You can also separate the rooms of your home into zones, which you tackle weekly or monthly. By having a plan in place, you can keep on top of the house while still managing the rest of your life smoothly.
Wow the Office with My Work Schedule
Available for Android users, My Work Schedule is particularly useful for handling changing work schedules. It keeps up with meetings, conferences, lunch appointments, and vacation days. You can receive alerts about upcoming deadlines, schedule time off, and make your overall schedule as restricted or relaxed as you need.
Streamline Your Health Using ZocDoc
Keeping up with appointments for doctors, dentists, and vets is difficult even for highly organized people. The more people you have in your family, the more complicated it gets. With ZocDoc, a free iPhone app, you’ll never have to worry about missing an appointment again. You won’t even have to worry about finding a new doctor. You can narrow your results using:
- The specialty you need, such as general practitioner, pediatrician, or optometrist
- Your location
- The ideal date of your appointment
- And your insurance provider
Through the app, you can find a doctor and even book your appointment. You’ll then receive alerts letting you know about upcoming appointments, allowing you to keep track of every visit.
Apps take the hassle out of organizing your life; they even let you simplify it. What apps do you rely on for organization?
