Why we picked this?

Most asthma-related health apps focus solely on pollution. Not Asthmatic. It factors in temperature, humidity level, ozone level, indoor climate, pollution, and other possible triggers in order to help determine what precautions you should take. The daily rating makes it easy to simply glance at the information and get on with your day, or you can analyze all of the data up to five days out.

You want to plan ahead. With its five-day forecast, Asthmatic will help you decide when to take your medication or avoid exercising outside.

You rely on widgets and your Apple Watch. Asthmatic supports neither.

Orderly is all about prioritizing tasks to ensure you complete the most important ones on time. When creating a task list you’re able to title the group and add as many items as necessary. The menu bar icons at the top allow you to quickly change the background color, text, and font to make the list stand out. A priority level, reminder, and proximity reminder can be attached as well. All of your task lists will appear as little notes on the app’s home screen presented in order of importance.

Apple’s native Reminders app feels too limited and clunky for you. It was designed to streamline your task management instead of making it more difficult.

You have a lot of lists because the interface’s shelf design.
