Amazing time management and productivity tool
Amazing Marvin is a hightech mixture of scheduling app and to-do lists. If you know some of the time management approaches, like GTD or Pommodoro, then this tool can help you to get a grip on your procrastrination tendencies, on regular time eaters and specific time traps.
I am enthusiastic about the variety of settings Amazing Marvin comes with. In fact, every user can build his own time management system perfectly tailored to his needs. One is no longer dependent on a specific time management system provider and therefore does not have to do the time management exclusively according to the specifications of the corresponding system provider.
I also find the video tutorials on Youtube and the in-app video explanations for each function very well done. In a short time you can build your own custom-made productivity tool and also try out some new functions. Plus, the two developers of Amazing Marvin are very responsive to new features and future development ideas. You get here a one year free trial period - enough time to play around and check this tool inside out.
The only negative thing I've noticed so far: For someone who has no previous experience with time management systems, you can be overwhelmed by the wealth of setting options when you get started. Even I, as a regular time management tool user, was a bit overwhelmed at the beginning.
Of course, you can simply switch everything off at first and only gradually switch on more features. This is also explicitly recommended by the developers. In addition, some pre-installed templates of well-known time management systems help to have the corresponding features enabled from the beginning.
Looking at the future development plan, the tool is supposed to get even more features - so it should also become much more complex. In the medium to long term, this is a great tool for time management pros, but if you need a simple to-do list or a normal calendar, this tool is simply too versatile. For all others, however, the egg laying wool milk pig.
From me, clearly five tacos for an all around awesome tool I gonna buy after the one year period lies in the past.
