Outside of work I LOVE using Trello as a travel planner. I use the free version to create the bare bones of the trip and then before we go, I subscribe to the paid version to get extra features like locations etc, to further enhance my Trello board and finish adding details and filling in everything I plan to do each day. Each board is a city I have gone to or am planning to go to, and the columns are days of the trip and then cards are activities, meals, travel info, and more. I’ll never travel without it again.

Wow, I thought I was a thorough planner with my Google Sheet. You have me beat!

A great post!

I use Zoom and What's App for collaboration on a part-time business I am trying to get 'off the ground' and also for remaining in contact with family and friends.  I'm also using Evernote, Canva, Pexels and a host of other software.applications for the aforementioned business.

I am using Google G suite for a number of things such as taking and organising photos (PHOTO), organising cloud storage (GDRIVE), calendar (CALENDAR), directions (MAPS), Shopping (SHOPPING) etc.

There are many more applications and software that I use for general day to day or weekly activities - shopping, banking/finance, travel, booking a restaurant, checking the weather, exercising etc.

In addition to the comment about password management, I add (50% work and 50% personal life):

Tool for managing time zones (app, widget, desktop + mobile)

This is a great question! Microsoft To Do is as useful for shopping lists as it is for work tasks. I find relational database tools like Stackby, Grist, NocoDB, and Notion to be powerful for organizing ideas and information for personal projects as well as work. Notion is my personal journalling platform and web clipper, too. I've been experimenting with replacing it with Anytype. I'm not quite ready to make the plunge.

When we learn to use tools at work, it trains our minds to approach problems in certain ways that have lots of applications in personal life.

I've found password managers to be really helpful in personal and work life. For example: 1password

Hi Fedor,

Keeper, NordPass, Dashlane, ProtonPass and yes Ipassword are all great Password Managers.

Hi Fedor, +1!

This is a task I dedicated quite a bit of time to. In my case, I tried Bitwarden for a few months before switching to Proton Pass!

I'll start first. For me it was Asana. I started using it l think 7 years ago at a company I was working for back then. Since then, I'm using it daily - both for personal and business stuff (mostly as a to-do list)

Hi Deyan, great choice!

For your personal need, are you using it free or paid?

I could not live without all Google tools, including Maps, Translator, Gemini, Drive, Meet, Mail, Storage, and Google Pay. They are part of my everyday life on my gadgets.

Hi Sheeba, curios, do you have a paid plan or you just use the free suite?

Hands down Google Authenticator. I use it daily for work and personal accounts for additional security.
