Seize the Time
Daylight saving time returned on March 13 to “move time” forward an entire hour. This seemingly tiny shift can disrupt life for some people, causing sleep loss, plummeting moods, and even sluggish reflexes.
But time isn’t the only thing that can pull a switch every now and then. The apps below empower people to switch their behaviors and habits to make best use of this nebulous thing called time.
If you want to pinpoint your best time to sleep…
…then try Sleepscore, an app that leverages your smartphone’s microphone to track your quality of sleep and deliver recommendations that go above and beyond your best times to go to bed and wake up.
Because the recommendations are based on your current sleep patterns, they’ll adjust as you navigate time changes or time zones.
If you want to pinpoint your best time to eat…
…then try the Ate, an app that makes it fun and easy to track when and what you eat. Review your meal log to see patterns and make connections between your eating habits and how you feel.
If you want to pinpoint your best time to work out…
…then try Fitbod, an app you can use to log your workouts and progress over time. Review patterns for the times and days you have your best workouts and even receive customized workout recommendations based on what you log.
If you want to pinpoint your best time to get stuff done…
…then try Motion, an app that helps you make the most optimal, logical decisions about your schedule. Data-based and deeply pragmatic, the app removes the emotion-laden human thoughts that stop many of us from organizing our time well. It integrates your task list and schedules and moves tasks around to streamline your workflow.
