Hightrack Combines Your Agenda, To-Dos, and Weekly Review In One Tool


Web/Android/iOS: If you're tired of switching among tools to stay productive, like your calendar and your to-do list, your notes and your agenda, and so on, Hightrack is a new all-in-one productivity tool that brings them all together in a feature-rich, good-looking, easy to use tool.


The video above gives you a rundown of some of Hightrack's features, but one of the biggest things about it is that it combines a lot of things that you're probably already doing into one useful tool. You probably already have a to-do list, a calendar, another app for notes or quick thoughts, and yet another for your agenda. Hightrack combines all of those things, and pulls in things like your calendar from Google Calendar or iCloud so you don't have to start over from scratch. It'll remind you of appointments, consolidate your to-do list (or, if you prefer, keep them separate on different "tracks" you can use for different projects or things you want to focus on.)


Hightrack links your to-dos and your calendar so you can quickly add or check off items from each, but it helps you focus by keeping your attention on the things you need to work on now without the distractions of upcoming tasks. Finally, when it's time to do your weekly review, you can go back over what you've accomplished, see what's been delayed or what you've rescheduled, check your stats, and more. The service has a webapp that works on just about every platform, and native apps for iOS and Android so you can take your work on the go. Everything syncs in the background.


Hightrack is a freemium service. You can create a free account to see if you like it and if the features work for you. You get 15 task lists, and one local and one external calendar(read only). To get all of Hightrack's features: Unlimited calendars, unlimited tracks and task lists, the ability to email items to your to-do list, notes on your to-dos, daily backups, premium support, and more, you'll want a premium account, which will set you back $4.50/mo or $45/yr. You can read the differences between free and premium here. It's a tall order for a productivity service, but if the features appeal to you, it may be worthwhile, and better than using a dozen disparate apps. Hit the link below to learn more.
