I tried tons of third party apps (Omnifocus, Ulysses, Agenda, Things, Fantastical, Pro Tools…) but always end up using Apple’s stock apps because I love simplicity and I discovered that with my overthinking bad habit, having a good but simple/limited app is more efficient than an overkilled one.

WefWef as in the Lemmy client? It's been renamed to Voyager, and I believe there's an iOS app too. I'm using it on Android now, and it's great 👍

Thank you very much for the tip! I just installed it

[–] Tippon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

No worries, glad I could help :)

If you’re on iOS I’d give Memmy a shot. It’s very similar to Apollo, and I’m really liking it. The devs are great too

If you like Memmy id recommend giving Bean a go too.

[–] DeadlineX@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I tried bean in the early stages and didn’t really like the interface. I’ll try it again now that it’s out of test flight but I’ve really enjoyed Memmy so far.

[–] joneskind@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks for the advice but I already tried Memmy and a bunch of others and I always ended up back to using WefWef webapp, so I’ll stick to Voyager

[–] DeadlineX@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

That’s fair. It all comes down to preferences in the end.
