As an accounting professional, proper time management is necessary for completing your work. Especially during busy seasons, every minute matters. Here are four time management apps to choose from to increase your efficiency and maximize how you spend your time.

4 Apps To Help You Manage Your Time

#1 Harvest

The Harvest app lets you record time for multiple clients and log your expenses. You can determine where your time is going, how much your projects are costing, and how much they are bringing in. You also can keep track of your team’s time to more effectively manage them and achieve results. In addition, you can keep your projects on track, turn your billable time and expenses into invoices, and get paid online. Further, you can schedule your team’s time into the future to ensure that deadlines are reached.

#2 Asana

Asana is a collaborative workplace management app that lets your team share responsibilities and progress. Your team can stay in sync, reach your deadlines, and attain business goals. Dashboards let you map out each step of your projects, organize all the details, and monitor your progress. Everyone can see how the pieces of your project work together, stay current on changes, and make adjustments to overlaps in scheduling. Teammates can see what is on track and what needs attention. The app integrates with Slack, Evernote, Google Drive, and other collaboration resources to collect emails, files, tickets and more in one place.

#3 RescueTime

The RescueTime app increases your productivity by monitoring your computer use and letting you know when and how you are both productive and distracted. You can uncover inefficiencies in your day and better manage your time. For instance, you may want to reduce the time you spend on email by one hour each day to stay focused. The app updates across all devices throughout the day and provides insight into how you are managing your time and goals. The app also provides a detailed weekly report to show where you spent your computer hours, how productive you were, and whether you achieved your objectives. You can set limits on how much time you spend on specific computer activities, receive alerts when you reach your limit, and better plan your work for the following day.

#4 Easy Timer

The Easy Timer app helps reduce distractions so you focus more on your work. Simply set the alarm clock either for a specific number of minutes or for a certain time at which you want to receive an alert. Choose from over 35 pre-installed alarm sounds or customize your own from an audio file. You can change the colors, position, or size of the alarm features as well. Plus, you can set the alarm to ring a certain number of times or until deactivated.
