These days, there’s an app for just about everything — whether you’re organizing your calendar, staying on top of projects, planning meals, or tracking habits. With so many options, the real challenge isn’t finding a tool, but choosing the ones that actually make life easier. That’s why this edition of the Productivity & Organizing Blog Carnival is all about apps to help you manage your life.

I recently invited my readers to share their insights about the apps they recommend to clients or use to manage their own lives. I’m pleased with the variety in the responses – which include goal setting, habit tracking, home inventory and much more – and I’m sure you’ll find something that will be helpful to your clients, your family, or yourself.

As you read the posts listed below, please connect with the bloggers on social media, leave comments, and share your favorites with your own network.

If you offer a product or service that would be valuable to professional organizers, productivity consultants, or their clients, consider sponsoring an upcoming edition of the Carnival. It’s a smart way to get extra visibility!

Big thanks to everyone who participated in this month’s Productivity & Organizing Blog Carnival!

Please join us next time, when our topic will be Party Planning. You have until 11:59 PM EDT on Wednesday, October 15 to contribute your post.
