1. Better
This app is super simple, but profound. You choose one thing that you want to do very often, either every day or five times a week. Then, you plug it in and every time you do that one thing you just open the app. That’s it. You can choose to add notes or photos, but if you go too long without opening the app, it’ll remind you to do the thing you’ve been wanting to do. I’ve used to it for two rounds (28 days a piece) to help me be accountable to do Bible study. It is good stuff for brains that are like mine. I have to make commitments to someone or something. I struggle if I only make a commitment to myself. This is a journey that I can watch happen that is tangible. I love it.
2. Balanced
Balanced is similar to
Better, but you can use it for multiple things. I am struggling to be
disciplined in sitting behind a computer and writing without having a specific
deadline for the things I’d like to do. I am using it for things I would like
to weekly. You can set it for any timeframe you want. The free version allows you
to plug in 5 different things you’d like to keep up with. I have used it for
exercise, calling my parents, completing a project, etc. I am currently using
to help me write!
3. Focus on the Family
It’s not just for families either. They have
discussed things like why Fifty Shades of
Grey is NOT all right for the Christian woman to read, how mental illness
has an effect on those around it and the church should be doing better to get
involved, what it looks like to have a Kingdom Perspective, etc. If you’re
reading this and thinking I had you with the first two, but now you’re
gone. Hear me out. We need
accountability in more than just reminders. We need to hear truth spoken from
genuine, real people other than our pastors to help us live lives of
accountability. What kind of time does it take to just download it and check it
out? I’ve also linked the website HERE.
That’s that. I can’t stress
to you enough how pretty darn great these apps have been for me. Have fun checking
them out!
God bless,
Hollie
