The equation for good life lies in substraction of good habits to bad habits. The habits are the main characteristic of our life. And building good habits or braking bad habits are one of the most important task. By changing daily habits we can change course of our direction and mobile phones can be very handy for building or braking good habits.
In appstores (Both IOS and Android) you can find free habit building apps like chain, Habit bull etc. etc. These are free apps in some extent or you can buy premium version of the apps too if available. The concept of these apps are never break the chain. You can set reminder too. By daily use of habit building apps, the apps gives you habit score and as you know when we got compelling score or number we can convert them into the games too. For example in this week my habit score is 80 or I dont break the chain for enire week, Then week becomes month and month becomes year and those cultivation of good habits and breaking of bad habits can alter your character and helps you to become another person. But for that we have to become choice maker not the mobile phones.
Mobile Phones help you to improve productivity :
There are many apps in the play store which can be used as planner / project management apps like trello, google task, Any do etc.some mobile companies gives their native reminder apps to. Some apps gives weekly productivity score which can challenge you to be more productive by improving weekly score. You can by premium version for additional statastics. For example most prodictive day, Weekly productivity score and so on with interactive graphics to inspire you.
For focus you can find pomodoro timer too. Pomodoro technique is devloped by Francessco Cirillo in 1980s. Pomodoro is one of the great method to improve your prodictivity. In pomodoro technique you have to devide your task in 25 min subtask and after 25 minutes you can take 05 minute break (recommended). After completion of break again set timer for 25 minutes and take break for five minutes. complete those four cycle and you complete one pomodoro. After one pomodoro take 25-30 minute break. Engross, productivity challenger, pomo to do list are the examples of such apps.
Some pomodoro timers are also comes with the feature of app blocker. In other words when timer is running , it wont allow you to open un productive apps (which you have to choose). Or additionally you can down load any app blocker or notification blocker apps to improve your focus by removing notification which disturb your ability to focus and hampers creativity to create something great.
