Do you ever feel overwhelmed by just how much you have to do?
We certainly do. Sticking to your schedule, staying on top of your schoolwork, planning social time with friends and carving out a few minutes for yourself—it's all enough to cause anyone enormous amounts of stress and worry.
But sometimes all it takes is a little planning to feel like you're back in control.
If your organization could use some help, keep scrolling for the best apps to help manage your life:
Planner Pro
One of our personal favorites, Planner Pro offers everything you need to manage your daily life better. Events, tasks and notes are all combined in one place, allowing you to toss in anything you need to know and simplify your daily planning. You can add in one-time or recurring events, input tasks and projects that are divided into subtasks for better management and take notes on practically anything. With daily, weekly and monthly views, you can customize this app to be everything you need, allowing you to fully organize your life in one convenient location

ZenDay
If you're looking for an app that brings a sense of calm to your daily schedule, ZenDay is the perfect option for you. With a unique, 3D timeline, ZenDay allows you to zero-in on tasks you need to complete, while still viewing an overall list of your daily to-dos. A task is automatically updated or rescheduled based on when you complete it, whether the deadline is approaching or whether you didn't yet have time to finish it. In addition, you can also see just how much you've done and just how much you have left to do, allowing you to plan your time accordingly.
Any.do
If you love the simplicity and straightforwardness of to do lists, Any.do can help you to take those organization skills to the digital space. The app combines a calendar and a task list, so you can get a monthly and daily list of action items that need to be completed. That way, you can plan a practice for your sports team, a movie night with friends and a term paper that's due in a month, in one easy-to-access space. It provides some organization to your world without making things too complicated, allowing you to plan your life in the way that works best for you.

Stky
Sometimes the problem with planning apps is that they demand input and organization from you, which can ruin the point of simplifying your life. Stky fixes this problem by requiring the least amount of effort possible from you. Created specifically for Apple users, this app allows you to create reminders with Siri that are then added to your daily sticky note. All you have to do is say what you need to get done for the day, allowing you to track all your tasks without wasting a bunch of time typing things into your phone.

Built with students in mind, My Study Life focuses on organizing your schoolwork, allowing you plenty of free space in your mind to worry about everything else. You can track homework, create reminders about upcoming tests, input your class schedule and set notifications to ensure that you never miss an assignment again. It also uses the cloud to store all your data, allowing you to access it from any device. With your school life in order, planning everything else is guaranteed to get much easier.
