And, make your own iMessage stickers!Tools take time to get used to as well as gestures to manipulate toolsets. Also, isolated to iOSFacebook Live. Overhyped.

Kevin ThornTogglTime managementSet up projects/tasks and turn on timer per each.Ability to assign different tasks to rates and export a report of all time against a project No invoicing yet. Only time management app, but works well and may see an invoicing feature in the future. So far, I like all features.

Kevin ThornEdgarSocial Media organizer, publisher, and editorial calendarSet categories for tweets, posts, etc. to multiple social media accounts and schedule them as one-time or recurringCategories: Group tweets/posts under 'promotional', 'workshops', 'blog', 'tips' or as many as you want It's pricey at $49/mo. Useful if you have a lot of various types of information that goes to various accounts.
