NINE

Iain Reid

Create clear visual reminders by snapping photos with Nine.

It’s perfect for anyone who needs more than a long list of text reminders to ensure the job gets done.

Why we picked this?

It’s so much easier to recall important events and ideas when you can actually see them, which is what makes Nine so effective. All you have to do is snap a photo of something related to the event or idea you want to recall. You can then add a title, note, and tag. The location at the time the entry was created will be attached automatically. All of your entries can be viewed in a single scrollable list, or you can filter them by tags.

If you’re more of a visual person, Nine will help you get the job done much easier. The large visual previews allow you to quickly and easily recall information without digging and searching through text lists.

If you have a lot you need to remember, nothing beats basic text lists.

Brain Wave Study Smart offers advanced brainwave entrainment therapy. You’re able to select from morning, midday, afternoon, evening, and late night programs, and choose a soothing background sound to accompany them. Then hit play and allow the app to sync your brainwaves to the deeply relaxing low frequency delta, theta, and beta waves. The app also allows you to adjust the signal intensity and save your settings for later use.

If you lack focus and concentration, check out Brain Wave Study Smart. It syncs the frequency of your brainwaves with those associated with focus, concentration, analytical thought, and memory retention.

If you have prior medical conditions such as seizures, you’ll want to consult a physician before using any binaural brainwave entrainment programs.
