Let’s face it: whether you’re working on projects, browsing the web or checking your email, managing your to-do list can get a little messy.
Hell, it can get downright chaotic if you’re filling in your tasks or thoughts on the Sticky Notes app, which can get lost under multiple tabs and windows. And obviously, you ain’t got time for that.
Luckily for you, my friends, we found a new app that will make you want to stop using sticky notes to remember what you’re doing.
Thought Train is a tasks management app that’s designed for the Mac OS menu bar. With a simple, easy-to-use interface, the app is accessible no matter what you’re working on.
Literally, you can summon this bad boy while you’re reading articles on 2oceansvibe or something.
Observe what the app looks like in action:
Good stuff.
As you can see, it’s tucked away in the menu bar. According to Life Hacker, all you have to do is click on a ladder icon at the top of the page and type in your thoughts without switching tabs.
Hella convenient, don’t you think?
Now’s here a close-up of example thoughts:
Easy-freaking-peasy, dearies.
And of course, it has more radical features like:
- Scroll through multiple thoughts/tasks – If you have more than one thought or task, and if the app is minimised, they’ll scroll through your menu bar, marquee style. Sweet.
- Archive and delete thoughts/tasks – Pin thoughts for later or clear them entirely when you’re done with them by clicking a check mark, whatever’s your pleasure.
- Emoji support – What better way to emphasise that one nasty task you don’t want to do than inserting a frowning emoji next to it? You can add any emoji that you want to your thoughts/tasks.
- It’s free … if you want it to be – The app uses a pay-what-you-want model, so if you enjoy the product, you can contribute to future updates. It’s a win-win situation.
Thought Train is already a huge hit since it came out last Friday – it’s been named the number one app of the day on Product Hunt just 24 hours after its release.
And if that wasn’t enough, the bloody founder of Product Hunt himself has given the app and its creator, Marc Perel, his seal of approval:
Validation of the highest order, people.
If you don’t want to be like Hoover by CMD+TAB’ing between too many things at once, Thought Train is your jam.
Make a note of that.
