About this app

Make Time is a simple app that helps you focus on what matters every day.

Do you ever look back and wonder: What did I really do today? Do you ever daydream about projects and activities you'll get to "someday"—but someday never comes?

Make Time can help.

Maybe you already tried a bunch of productivity apps. You got organized. You made lists. You looked for time-saving tricks and life hacks.

Make Time is different. This app won't help you sort your to-dos or remind you of all the things you "should" be doing. Instead, Make Time will help you CREATE MORE TIME in your day for the things you really care about.

Based on the popular Make Time book by Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky, this app gives you a new approach to planning your day:

- First, choose a single HIGHLIGHT to prioritize in your calendar.
- Next, tweak your devices to stay LASER focused.
- Finally, REFLECT on the day with a few simple notes.

The Make Time app is your friendly guide to days that are slower, less distracted, and more joyful.

Use your phone as a tool to help you focus—not as a source of endless distraction and stress.

Start making time for what matters today.

HIGHLIGHT
- Make note of the one activity you want to prioritize today
- Connect your calendar so you can find time for your Highlight

LASER

Ratings and reviews

This appears to be an incredible app, from everything I've read about it online. However, a critical bug prevents it from working on my Samsung phone, so I wasn't able to use it. I'm giving it 2 stars despite it not working at all for me because I reserve 1 star for apps I deem to be malicious, which I don't think this is. I would love to see the bug fixed, though. Bug: Every time I try to set a scheduled time for a highlight, the app crashes.

The app is relatively new so there is scope for lot of improvements. I just started using it and the one thing that I noticed immediately is the calendar feature. I would love to expand the highlights duration beyond 120 minutes. For example if I want to take a 3hr test and review it, it will take me more than 4 hours for that task at the minimum.

When scheduling my highlight, the app doesn't know what day it is. Must schedule tomorrow's highlight the day before and never deviate. As life turns out, sometimes I need to identify today's highlight today, or even reschedule it. Nope - always goes to tomorrow in the app. Text fields in the app don't always look like text fields - not intuitive. Timer would be much more useful if I could set it to shorter periods. Again, assuming I will follow the method strictly and not experiment or deviate.

What’s new

Updated the app's internals to the latest and greatest, so it's compatible with the latest Android version again.
