Apart from my passion for tech and gadgets, I’m a bit of a productivity nerd who likes trying new apps and techniques to be more productive.

With that in mind, I reviewed numerous great apps on this blog which have not only helped me be more organised but have also helped me increase my productivity.

However, today I wanted to try something different, I wanted to share 3 apps that have made things worse for me and I will be discussing why.

On a side note, I have absolutely nothing against the apps I am writing about in this article, and I think that each one of these apps is great and that they all have their pros and cons.

But when it comes to productivity, the apps need to work for you personally, and they need to work at the right time.

But, without any further ado, here are the 3 apps that make things worse for me…

1. Notion

Notion is an absolutely brilliant app that can be used for various use cases. It was also the app that I religiously used at university to keep everything together.

Back then, I used the app for absolutely everything, from managing my daily life to organising my course notes and research materials.
