Diary Lite a ‘D-Lite’ to Use Daily
Diary Lite a ‘D-Lite’ to Use Daily is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Price: $0.99 Score: 9/10 By Anna P.
Life is hectic. This is a fact that simply cannot be denied. But when it comes to organizing our lives, the last thing we want is an agenda book or calendar that is more complex and intense than our lives. That’s the exact problem we’re trying to solve! With Diary Lite by Diary.com Ltd, users gain access to the cleanest, easiest, all-in-one application they could possibly imagine.
Like a neatly packaged gift, Diary Lite is combines your agenda, tasks and journal in one convenient package. Designed to help both plan and record your life, Diary Lite’s simplicity is unexplainably enticing. As an old school, paper and pen kind of gal, I mostly appreciate organizational apps from afar but am rarely able to invest all of my thoughts and reminders in my “usually” reliable device. However, I was immediately drawn to Diary Lite’s clean color scheme, layout and ease of use. Never have I ever come across one app that encompasses every organizational tool one might need so seamlessly, as if all these related aspects of life actually CAN coexist without getting the wires in one’s brain crossed and fried.
Users begin on the ‘Agenda’ tab upon first start up of Diary Lite. Tap the ‘+’ icon in the top right corner to begin adding events to your calendar. Add or edit single events, birthdays and anniversaries. Just choose your category and enter the required information. By setting a reminder for each occasion, users are guaranteed to have Diary Lite alert them when the date is approaching.
Enter your tasks in the same way you would enter an event using the ‘Tasks’ tab. Once again, use the ‘+’ icon to enter your information. Tasks also include reminders so you can benefit from the convenient pop up alerts that help you keep on top of the pressing tasks that can sometimes weigh you down.
Finally, the ‘Journal’ tab allows you to do just that – keep a journal. Write journal entries that document specific moments or events from your day that you don’t want to forget. In this case, the ‘+’ icon will immediately direct you to a blank entry template where you can start recording your thoughts right away. The journal, by Diary.com, works offline so you don’t need an Internet connection, or even a Diary.com account, to write your entries.
Plus, when you consider that you are only paying $.99 for an app that encompasses three key functions that are normally sold separately, it’s almost like hitting the jackpot. A really attractive jackpot, at that.
Diary Lite requires iPhone OS 3.0 or later and is compatible with the iPhone and iPod Touch. A small fee was paid by the developer to expedite the publication of this review.
iPhone App Review: Promise2Pray
iPhone App Review: Promise2Pray is a post from: Best Iphone Apps Review Website
Have you ever found yourself awake at night babbling aimlessly at the ceiling and not making a clear objective? Have you ever thought to pray for someone and forgot what their request was? Prayer is a powerful tool for a believer i used correctly. Often times a person may use a journal to help with organizing and recollection of their prayer list. This app is an electronic prayer journal that will assist the user in recalling their prayers, help to organize them into categories and acts as a reminder to the user.
Promise2Pray Pros:
I first started using this app a few days ago with expectations of a simple little app that would look good and ultimately not be used by myself. So far I have only seen the benefit from using Promise2Pray. The first thing that I have noticed simply was the amount of prayer requests that I had in my head seemed much larger when written down in this app. You can sort through your prayer list by category such as “Petition” and “Thanksgiving”. This was neat because it helped me visualize where my struggles and blessings are in my life. Beyond the capability to just categorize prayer, it has functions to: add prayers for the future, add contact info for someone you are praying for, search archived prayer, and add categories of prayer to sort into. It does all of this and still manages to look and function great.
Promise2Pray Cons:
One minor thing that I would like to see Promise2Pray have is contact photos. This is definitely not a necessity for this app but some people may like to associate a face with their prayers. Another great upgrade to this app would be the ability to password protect certain prayers. I say this because I prayed for guidance in considering proposing to my (now) wife a few years ago and if I was using an app like this at the time; her stumbling upon it may have ruined the surprise. Push notification would be a welcomed add to this app to remind the user of important dates in their prayer lists.
I did like Promise2Pray a lot. I was right in my initial assumption that it would be a great looking and functioning app but I was very wrong when it came to personal usefulness. I see myself using Promise2Pray for a long time and would recommend this app to anyone who is looking for some organization of their prayers and a great way to be reminded of what to be praying for.
Pros:
- Categories
- View archived prayers
- View Future prayers
- Ability to add contact info
- Helps with overall organization of prayers
Cons:
- Contacts can’t add photos
- No password protection for sensitive prayer
- No push notifications
I give this app an 7/10 for looking great and potential long term usefulness, but still needs a few upgrades
