Achieve Your New Year’s Resolutions in 2025 with 24me: The Ultimate Organization App

As the New Year approaches, it’s the perfect time to reflect on achievements and set intentions for the months ahead. For many, New Year’s resolutions revolve around personal growth, wellness, and increased productivity. Yet, studies show that nearly 80% of resolutions fail by mid-February. Why? Often, the tools to maintain these goals are either inadequate or too complex. That’s where 24me comes in – a game-changing update to your favorite personal assistant app that’s designed to support your goals, streamline your schedule, and help you achieve more in 2025.

This release is packed with innovative features to help you stay on top of your commitments, manage your time effectively, and bring a touch of joy to your daily routine. Let’s dive into what makes 24me 11.0 the ultimate productivity companion.

Setting the Tone for 2025: The Importance of Productivity

As we usher in 2025, there’s a collective desire to make this year one of growth and accomplishment. Productivity is not just about working harder; it’s about working smarter. Tools that help you focus, reduce cognitive load, and streamline mundane tasks allow you to channel energy toward what truly matters – be it personal aspirations, professional goals, or family time.

At 24me, we understand that productivity isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why our latest update is designed to cater to diverse needs, whether you’re a busy professional, a parent juggling multiple responsibilities, or someone looking to improve daily habits.

A Deep Dive Into What’s New in 24me for 2025

Focused Hours: Maximizing Productivity with Intentional Time Blocks

One of the most effective strategies for getting things done is to schedule dedicated focus periods. With Focused Hours, you can now allocate specific times for deep work directly within your calendar. Whether you’re working on a major project, studying, or simply need uninterrupted time to think, Focused Hours lets you reserve that space.

How It Works:

In the Week, 3-day, and Day views, use the handles on the left side of the calendar to mark your Focused Hours. Hours outside of your focus time will collapse, taking up less space on your calendar and providing better visibility for your Focused Hours. You can always tap on the collapsed hours to expand them, and tapping again on the handles will collapse them once more.

The Benefit:

By reducing distractions and setting clear boundaries for focused time, you’ll accomplish more in less time. Plus, this feature optimizes your mobile screen space, ensuring that only events during your Focused Hours are prominently displayed. This method follows the time-blocking strategy used by productivity experts like Elon Musk, helping you stay organized and productive throughout the day.

24me Intelligence: Simplifying Scheduling with Natural Language

24me Intelligence is a powerful tool that lets you add tasks, events and notes using natural language. So whether you are on the go or short in time – let 24me set the details like date, time, and location.

How It Works:

Type or speak phrases like “Lunch with Sarah tomorrow at noon in Clairs” or “Dentist appointment next Monday at 3 PM at 3 main street Stonyville,” and 24me will automatically parse the details, and enter them in the relevant fields of time, date and location. The Benefit: 

This feature saves time and reduces the risk of errors, ensuring you stay on top of your commitments effortlessly.

Enhanced Labels: Seamless Task Grouping and Project Management

Labels in 24me have been upgraded to make organizing tasks easier than ever. Whether you’re managing a work project, planning a family event, or tracking personal goals, Enhanced Labels allow you to group related tasks under a single category, and then view these tasks in Label view, allowing you to see the tasks sorted by the different labels.

How It Works:

Organize and categorize your tasks effortlessly by creating and assigning custom labels. To do this, head to the Labels section within the task details screen. From there, you can tap to assign one or more labels to a task. If you don’t see the label you want, you can easily add a new one directly from the same screen.

You also have the ability to assign a color to each label, which will visually highlight tasks associated with that label using the same color. This feature helps make your tasks even easier to identify at a glance.

Once your labels are set up, you can switch your view to group tasks by label. Simply tap the View Mode button in the top bar of the Tasks screen and select Group by Label. This will reorganize your tasks, showing all your labels and listing the tasks beneath their respective labels.

This grouping approach makes it simpler to manage larger projects or tasks with multiple sub-tasks, allowing for better organization and focus. Whether you’re handling a single project or managing a series of related tasks, grouping by label helps you stay organized and on top of everything more efficiently.

The Benefit:

Enhanced Labels provide clarity and help you maintain focus by separating work, personal, and other responsibilities. It’s also a convenient way to manage larger projects that require more hierarchy in hor tasks are listed and managed.

Drag-and-Drop List Management: Prioritize with Ease

Managing subtasks or notes for a larger project can sometimes become overwhelming. With the new Drag-and-Drop List Management, reordering subtasks is as simple as tapping and dragging.

How It Works:

Tap on any task with subtasks or notes and go to the Notes section. There, you can rearrange the items in the list by dragging and dropping them to reflect your priorities.

The Benefit:

This intuitive feature ensures that your to-do list evolves dynamically, breaking the project into manageable subtasks, and helping you focus on the most critical tasks at any given moment.

 A New 24me Gift Shop: Celebrate Life’s Moments

Life is full of special occasions, and 24me is here to help you celebrate them with ease. The new 24me Gift Shop allows you to send thoughtful gifts directly from the app.

How It Works:

24me makes gifting effortless by automatically identifying key events on your calendar, such as birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, and other special occasions. Those events are displayed with a Gift button next to them, making it easy for you to send a thoughtful present.

Tapping on the Gift button opens a curated selection of gift options tailored for the occasion – whether it’s a birthday, an anniversary, or a holiday celebration. The app offers a variety of personalized, thoughtful gifts to choose from. Once you’ve selected the perfect gift, you can send it instantly with just a few taps.

You can also create an instant Gift-Task, by tapping on create new task and choosing the gift option from the shortcut bar.

Since the gifts are delivered electronically, this feature is especially handy for sending last-minute gifts, making sure that special moments are never missed, no matter how busy you are. The process is simple, convenient, and seamless, with no need for wrapping, shipping, or waiting. Once the gift is shipped, the task is automatically marked as “Done!” on your 24me to do list!

The Benefit

This feature ensures you never miss an opportunity to make someone feel special. Whether it’s a surprise birthday gift or a thoughtful token for an anniversary, a spontaneous friend visit or an upcoming holiday, 24me handles the hard part, allowing you to focus on celebrating and connecting with your loved ones.

With gifts being delivered electronically, you can rest assured that no matter where you are, or how tight your schedule may be, you’ll always be prepared with the perfect gesture to show you care.

Schedule Ready-to-Send Messages: Pre-Plan Communication

We’ve all had moments where we wish we could schedule an email or text in advance – whether it’s a birthday greeting or a meeting reminder. With Schedule Ready-to-Send Messages, you can now do exactly that.

How It Works:

24me gives you the ability to add SMS and Email tasks directly into your to-do list and calendar, making it easier than ever to plan and manage your communication in one place. When you add a new task, you’ll see a shortcut bar with options for SMS and Email alongside your regular task options.

For both SMS and Email tasks, you can select a contact from your address book to link with that task, ensuring that the message is personalized and directed to the right person. After selecting your contact, you can switch to the Notes section of the task to add the content for the SMS or email, fully customizing your message.

Once your message is composed, you can set a specific date and time for the task, just like any other reminder within 24me. The app will send you a reminder based on the time and date you’ve set, keeping you on track to send the message when it’s needed.

What sets this feature apart is the ease with which you can send the message once the time arrives. On both the Tasks screen and Calendar screen, 24me will display a prominent action button (either an SMS or Email button) next to your scheduled task. When it’s time to send the message, simply tap the button, and 24me will automatically open the corresponding SMS or email interface with the message you previously created, and the contact details of the recipient already pre-populated. All that’s left for you to do is tap Send, ensuring that your messages are sent on time without any additional effort.

The Benefit:

This feature allows you to plan ahead and take the stress out of remembering to send important messages on time. By setting up SMS and Email tasks in advance, you can ensure timely communication and eliminate the last-minute scramble. Whether it’s a reminder to send a birthday greeting, a follow-up email, an action item email, or an important text message, 24me streamlines the process, so you can stay on top of your responsibilities and never miss a key communication.

Moreover, by integrating SMS and email tasks directly into your calendar and to-do lists, you can manage all aspects of your personal and professional life in one unified app, improving both productivity and organization.

iCloud Support for the 24me Web App: A Unified Calendar Experience

The 24me Web app is a powerful and essential component of the 24me ecosystem, offering the convenience of managing your schedule and tasks on a larger screen. It’s common these days to use multiple calendar platforms for different aspects of their personal and professional lives. Whether it’s Google Calendar for work, Outlook for meetings, or iCloud for personal appointments, keeping track of everything can become overwhelming. With the new iCloud support for the 24me Web App, you can now sync your iCloud calendar alongside your other accounts, giving you a comprehensive, unified scheduling experience.

How It Works:

You can access the 24me Web app at https://app.twentyfour.me. Once you’re logged into the web app, simply go to the menu and select the option to connect your iCloud account. Once your iCloud account is connected, all your events from that calendar will automatically sync with the 24me Web app, allowing you to view and manage all your calendar events and tasks from one central location.

This seamless integration means you can now easily manage your iCloud events along with your Google, Outlook, or other calendars, all within the 24me Web app. Whether you’re reviewing tasks, scheduling appointments, or tracking deadlines, you’ll have everything in one place.

The Benefit:

The 24me Web app offers the same powerful, unified experience you enjoy on your mobile device, but with the added benefit of a larger display. By connecting multiple calendar accounts, including Google, Outlook, and iCloud, you can view all of your events side by side with your tasks, giving you a clear, organized overview of your day.

This feature saves you the hassle of constantly switching between different platforms and apps to check your calendar and task lists. Instead, you can focus on what really matters: staying organized, being productive, and ensuring that you never miss an important appointment or task.

With iCloud support, you can enjoy a truly cross-platform experience, syncing your events across mobile devices, the web, and everything in between. This consistency across devices makes it easier than ever to stay on top of your schedule, whether you’re at home, at the office, or on the go. The integration of tasks and calendars ensures that you can manage your day without needing to juggle multiple apps or tools.

Looking Ahead: Productivity in 2025

As we step into 2025, the importance of staying organized and focused has never been more crucial. The demands of both professional and personal life continue to grow, and with it, the need for efficient time management tools that can help us achieve our goals.

Apple officially launched iOS 18, marking another major step in mobile technology. With this release, 24me is introducing a significant update that takes full advantage of the new features and capabilities brought by iOS 18. This update further solidifies 24me’s status as a leading smart time management and productivity app by integrating cutting-edge functionalities tailored to enhance user experience.

What’s New in 24me for iOS 18?

With today’s release of 24me for iOS 18, GroupCal introduces several new exciting features:

24me Intelligence

Apple’s AI-powered intelligence is one of Apple’s top announcements as part of iOS 18. It delivers context-aware suggestions and actions across the iOS ecosystem. By analyzing user habits and preferences, it offers proactive recommendations and intuitive shortcuts, streamlining daily tasks for a more efficient and seamless experience.

Taking advantage of this major iOS 18 feature, 24me introduces 24me Intelligence, a smart AI feature that interprets what you type in real-time. As you create tasks, events, or reminders, 24me automatically identifies and sets the correct date, time, and location. The user interface now includes visual indicators, such as a glowing effect around the item title box when 24me Intelligence is active. As relevant details are recognized, the corresponding fields blink to confirm the updates. For example, when typing “Client call at 10am tomorrow,” 24me instantly configures the event without needing manual adjustments. This feature significantly boosts productivity, especially for busy users managing multiple tasks.

24me Controls

With iOS 18, third-party apps like 24me can integrate directly into the Control Center and Lock Screen, offering instant access to key functions. This integration lets you perform actions like checking off tasks or setting reminders without opening the app. You can customize which controls are accessible, ensuring that your most-used features are always at your fingertips. This update creates a more streamlined and efficient workflow, enhancing productivity and making everyday interactions faster.

With this new update, 24me now offers quick-access controls integrated into the iOS Control Center and Lock Screen. The first control allows you to launch 24me instantly from these locations, while the second control lets you start creating a new task or event directly, saving time and enhancing ease of use.

App Icon Customization

iOS 18 introduces new ways to customize the home screen by altering third-party app icons. This feature allows you to align your apps with your preferred aesthetic or home screen design. You can adjust icon sizes (large or small) and select from Light, Dark, and Tinted modes. This level of personalization gives you a distinctive way to make your device feel uniquely yours.

24me leverages this enhanced customization capability, and offers the ability to customize app icons. Whether you prefer Light, Dark, or Tinted mode, 24me offers multiple options to match your device’s look and feel. This feature not only enhances the visual appeal of your home screen but also aligns 24me’s appearance with your personal style.

Apple Watch – Interactive Widget

iOS 18 brings interactive widgets to the Apple Watch, allowing users to take action directly from their watch face. This enhancement makes it easier to manage tasks and schedules on the go, reducing the need to open apps for quick interactions. Whether it’s checking off a to-do item or setting a quick reminder, these widgets are designed to keep you productive from your wrist.

24me adopts this new functionality as part of today’s release. Stay productive on the go with interactive widgets on your Apple Watch – complete tasks directly from your watch face without even opening the app. All updates seamlessly sync with the 24me app on both your Watch and iOS device.

Conclusion

24me’s latest update, designed for iOS 18, offers a powerful set of tools to make managing your time more efficient and enjoyable. From the smart functionality of 24me Intelligence to quick-access controls and the ability to customize your app icon, these enhancements are all about boosting productivity and personalization.

We encourage all users to explore these new features and unlock the full potential of 24me—the ultimate digital assistant for iOS users looking to stay on top of their busy lives.

Streamline Back-to-School with 24me: Your Digital Planner

Today, we are announcing a new version of 24me, tailored for “Back to School”, with multiple new functionalities for students.

It’s back to school time and with that comes a whirlwind of challenges for students. Balancing multiple class schedules, assignments, extracurricular activities, and personal time are just some of the challenges that students have to deal with on a daily basis. 24me acts as your personal assistant – a sophisticated digital planner that helps you create a clear and updated schedule, and ensures you never miss your classes or assignments. With 24me, students can effortlessly organize their busy lives, manage their workload efficiently, and reduce the stress associated with a busy school schedule.

Let’s talk about which challenges 24me can help with.

Challenges for Students

Time Management

Students have to juggle numerous responsibilities, from attending classes and completing assignments to managing extracurricular activities and personal commitments. Typical calendar tools are often not best suited to manage both events, tasks and notes, leading students to use separate tools for different purposes, which is cumbersome and inefficient. This fragmented approach can result in missed deadlines and overlooked responsibilities. Developing strong time management skills is crucial for success, and a unified solution like 24me can help streamline this process by integrating schedules, tasks, and notes into one platform.

By integrating all of your schedules into one place, 24me makes it easier to manage classes, assignments, tasks, events, and notes. This digital planner/ assistant ensures that you no longer need to switch between different apps or calendars to stay on top of your responsibilities. For example, a student with a busy day made up of classes, a part-time job, and a club meeting wants to make it all work somehow: With 24me, students can effortlessly organize their busy lives and stay ahead of their responsibilities.

Procrastination and Forgetfulness

Traditional calendars often fall short because they primarily offer reminders for events, which is not sufficient for managing the complex array of tasks and notes students need to handle. The lack of comprehensive features makes it challenging for students to stay organized and prioritize their responsibilities effectively, leading to increased stress levels and missed deadlines. 

24me was built to tackle these types of challenges. It helps students stay on top of their responsibilities by offering multiple advanced features to ensure they never forget anything through the following features:

  • Time-Based Reminders: Notifications for classes, assignments, and events. With 24me, you can choose when to receive reminders for important upcoming events, ensuring you have enough time to prepare and get to your next class on time. 
  • Nagging Alerts: Persistent reminders for important assignments and tasks. Unlike regular reminders that only alert you once, 24me’s nagging alerts will continue popping up until you acknowledge and act on them. For instance, if you have a critical essay due, 24me will keep sending you reminders about it until you take action, ensuring you stay on track and don’t miss important due dates.
  • Procrastination Assistant: A smart feature that finds the best time during the day to remind you about past due tasks, helping you stay on top of your responsibilities. For example, if you’ve been putting off completing a tedious assignment, 24me will find a free slot in your schedule and remind you that you need to complete it during that time.
  • Location-Based Reminders: Part of our new update, location-based reminders are triggered based on your location, such as picking up supplies when near the bookstore or submitting a project when arriving to class. We will further cover this new feature in the next section of this article. 

Back to School: A Major Update from 24me

In the new update that we are releasing today across all platforms (iOS, Android, Computer/Web), 24me introduces new enhancements to help better organize schedules, classes, assignments, exams, and more. Here is a detailed overview about what we are announcing today:

Location-Based Reminders

24me mobile app – Location based reminders

This feature allows you to set reminders that trigger based on your location. You can choose whether the reminder activates when you are approaching or otherwise departing a location, and specify the distance at which it should trigger. This is useful for receiving a reminder to buy snacks when you’re near the campus convenience store or remembering to submit a project as soon as you arrive on campus. Location-based reminders ensure you don’t forget tasks tied to specific places, helping you be efficient with your time and stay on top of your responsibilities.

24me’s improved photo attachment feature allows you to capture assignments and important information on the go. Snap a picture of a whiteboard or assignment sheet with your mobile device, and it will be immediately accessible across all your devices. 24me works perfectly as a digital planner for students who need to capture and access information quickly and efficiently.

Enhanced Lists and Subtasks

With 24me, you can add subtasks to events, turning to-do lists into dynamic and manageable plans. This is great for working on projects, as you can break the project down and work on it step-by-step. Additionally, organizing tasks with labels allows you to sort them into different categories based on classes or activities. You can color code each class, making it easy to maintain organization and understand which classes need to be your top priority. For example, in group projects, you can create subtasks for each team member’s responsibilities, ensuring that all parts of the project are efficiently completed on time.

Organizing Tasks with Labels

Organizing tasks with labels in 24me helps you stay organized by allowing you to sort tasks into different categories and projects based on classes or activities. This feature enables you to color code each class, making it easy to see at a glance which tasks belong to which class. In the context of back to school, you can use labels to maintain organization and prioritize your workload effectively. By understanding which classes need your top attention, you can manage your time better and ensure you stay on top of all your responsibilities.

Cross Platform Compatibility 

24me is available on web, iOS, and Android, ensuring that you have access to your schedules and tasks across all your devices. This cross-platform compatibility means you can seamlessly switch between devices without missing a beat. Whether you’re checking your schedule on your Mac in the morning, getting reminders on your iPhone throughout the day, or reviewing your tasks on your Android tablet in the evening, 24me keeps everything synchronized.

Conclusion

As the new school year begins, 24me is here to help you tackle the challenges of back-to-school time. With features like integrated schedules, advanced reminders, location-based alerts, seamless photo attachments, and enhanced lists with subtasks, 24me ensures you stay organized, manage your time effectively, and never miss an important task. Embrace the new school year with confidence, knowing that 24me has your back.

With color-coded calendars, you can easily differentiate between various groups and events at a glance.

Cross-Device Syncing

One of the standout features of GroupCal is its cross-device syncing capability. When you make changes or add events to your shared calendars on one device, the updates are instantly reflected across all connected devices. This real-time syncing ensures that you and your team members, family, or friends are always up-to-date with the latest schedule, irrespective of the device you’re using. Say goodbye to the headache of manual updates and enjoy the convenience of seamless synchronization.

Calendar Verification Badge

GroupCal’s Verification badge mechanism enhances trust and credibility within the shared calendar community. By allowing users to get their calendars verified, GroupCal ensures that calendars with the badge are authentic and reliable. The Verification badge appears next to the calendar’s name, serving as a visual indicator that the calendar’s owner has been verified. This feature is particularly valuable for businesses, organizations, or individuals who want to establish their legitimacy and authenticity to their audience. With the Verification badge, users can confidently join and collaborate on shared calendars, knowing that the information provided is from a verified and trustworthy source.

How 24me Helps Organizing Your Life

Managing life can be tedious. We are bombarded with all types of notifications and information  from emails to text messages, phone calls and other things that pop up and need our attention. It’s hard to keep track of what’s been done or what needs to get done. 24me is a personal assistant on the go which organizes the clutter. It’s one place to manage all calendars, to do lists, notes and personal reminders, and keeps you on top of things. Here’s how you can use it to get your life back in order.

Events, tasks and notes all in one place

24me keeps all of your stuff in one place, and eliminates the need to switch between multiple apps to get a sense of your schedule. It holds together all your calendar events from your different calendars, your to-dos, and all of your notes. Tasks with due dates will appear on the calendar at the right time, so that you will have a holistic view of your schedule.

Multiple calendar views allows for seeing your schedule ahead of time

24me is one of the easiest ways to keep track of all the moving parts in your life, from meetings to attend to birthday celebrations. The default view on iPads is ‘Week view’ and on iPhones it is ‘List view’. Sometimes you want to check on things further out in your schedule, so you may want to change your calendar view. 24me has five different calendar views so you can check out what’s coming up in the next month, week, 3-Days, day with the option of viewing it as a list. You can also see your schedule as a landscape week view. To return to today’s date, tap on the calendar icon on the top bar and it will bring you back to today’s date.

Syncs across all devices

With 24me, you can sync between your mobile phone, tablet, iPad, M1 laptops and even your Apple Watch. This allows access to your events, tasks and notes fro, everywhere, keeping you on top of your schedule anytime everywhere. Agenda for tomorrow / agenda for today

Since 24me acts as an assistant, it helps make sure you will know what’s coming up next. That’s why one of 24me’s favorite features by our users is the ‘Daily Agenda’. This is a customizable feature which lets you set the right time to get a special notification the night before and the day of, with a snippet of your schedule – when does your first meeting that day starts, how many meetings and tasks you have for that day.  

Share events, tasks and notes with the people around you

There are tasks and assignments you need to collaborate with a team or a group of people. 24me has a special option, specifically for this instance:  share tasks with a group of people, like a grocery list shared with your spouse, an assignment shared with your team classes or a shared activity for a group of friends. You can also share notes and of course events. All the data on the task/note will be synced in real time between all participants. 

Complete your tasks with automatic completion buttons

24me enables flexibility in scheduling tasks ahead of time. You can prepare a text message to be scheduled, an email that you want to be sent or anything else which is time sensitive.  Simply add a call, text or an email task to 24me, insert the text content, define the time of reminder and when the time comes, with the simple tap of a button , the email or text will be sent or the call will be made. Same goes with scheduling reminders for payments, booking hotels or sending gifts for special occasions (this specific feature is only available in the USA).

Procrastination fighter – helps manage time well

We all have some procrastination issues we need to work through and sometimes we just need a little “push” to complete things on our lists or finish tedious tasks. With 24me‘s procrastination fighter, you’ll be able to tackle those procrastination issues head-on, and get your life back on track so that you can be comfortable with your time. The procrastination fighter sends you notifications to let you know you have a free slot on your schedule, so you can complete your overdue tasks at that time. 

Labels 

We all know that having many tasks can be overwhelming. That’s why we’ve added the ability to add labels to tasks. This way you can organize each of the tasks under a specific label. When you need to look for your school related tasks, simply look under the school label. 

On the 24me task screen, you can choose to see tasks per time or per label. All tasks will be sorted into different buckets of labels. You can also categorize tasks into multiple labels, for example, ‘Buy groceries’ can be labeled with: ‘household errands’, and ‘shoppings’. Once you are using the Label mode on the Tasks screen, you will see that task under both those labels. This is a perfect way to organize your to-do lists and tasks. 

24me is here to help you get back on track. From staying on top of your schedule to managing your to-dos, you’ll have a trusted companion at your side throughout the day. If you haven’t already, make sure to download it now! https://bit.ly/3rpUs5F

Back-to-School with 24me

Summer is almost over. We are sure you made the most out of your vacation, and got some great energy to start the new academic year. Back to school is right around the corner, and this is a great opportunity to get ready for the new year like a pro, and be on top of your schedules, classes, assignments and your social activities. 

Managing time is key for stress-free life. Being on top of things helps you complete tasks thoroughly and stay focused. 24me can help you manage your life throughout your time at school. It holds all your schedules, assignments, to-do lists and notes in one place  and allows you to dedicate the right time for the most important things in life. 24me is an all in one app, which provides calendars, to-do list, notes and personal reminders with lots of smart features that help, you won’t forget a thing and complete tasks on time. 

Here’s a step by step for how you can start the year off right, and get organized from beginning to end:

  1. Your schedule: before you start the academic year, we highly encourage you to put all your schedules on 24me. Take some time to see your curriculum, including where your classes are located, and put all your information into 24me’s calendar. You can create repeated events for classes and make sure to define the time for your reminders. Having all your schedule in place is a key for a great fresh start!
  1. Homework and assignments – usually when the year starts, each class has its own assignments and homework. The professors tend to send a list of assignments for the upcoming semester. We recommend that you put all assignments and homework as calendar events on 24me’s calendar. This way you are 100% aware of what’s coming up next, and can manage your time like a pro. We suggest you put the first reminder for an assignment at least two days before the due date, and on the day of submission as well. This is how you won’t leave anything to the last moment. 
  2. Time to study – Studying is an essential factor if you want to succeed in school. Our recommendation is to block time for studying. This will allow you to focus and procrastinate less, and make time for other things in life – like social events and hobbies. When things are on your calendar, the probability for making things right is much higher. Exam period can also be hectic, which is why we suggest planning ahead using 24me and organizing your schedule to ensure you have enough time to study for finals.
  3. Sports – A vital part of our lives is sports to ensure we stay healthy and active. However, typically during the school year, we get busy and begin to neglect our health and sports. This is where 24me comes in handy. Blocking off chunks of time catered for sports on your calendar can help immensely with sticking to your plans. 
  4. Social life – Balancing schools, sports and a social life is never easy, especially in college. With 24me you can plan ahead and put your upcoming sorority/frat events and gatherings in your schedule on 24me. It doesn’t stop there, we advise you to plan ahead with any event:school related, family and friends.
  5. Family – Family is very important, which is why holidays are crucial when you’re away at college, however going back home for Thanksgiving or Christmas can be hectic. Plan out your days and family gatherings using 24me. All your necessary information can be stored on 24me, for example your packing list for thanksgiving travel. In addition to that, you can keep your Christmas gift shopping list hidden and locked on your 24me app
  6. Errands and tasks – Chores and errands can be tedious and boring, but we have to get them done. Write them down in your schedule to fully dedicate time for your chores. Instead of writing down the same chore every week (“Clean my room”), you can create repeated tasks on 24me, making it even easier to organize. Even grocery lists can be added to your bundle of activities on 24me. Tasks can also be sorted to different buckets of labels. See more info below under “Label Tasks”. 
  • Free style memos – 24me notes is a perfect solution to write down action items from a group assignment, which can be also shared with the members of the group. Everyone will be updated with what tasks they have to do for the project with this feature. Not only is it good for projects, but it’s also perfect for saving your favorite recipes and even keeping your treasured pictures and memories in place.

Special Features

There are lots of special features and capabilities in 24me which will help you stay organized and complete your stuff on time:

  1. Procrastination fighter  – Let’s face it, we all have some procrastination issues we need to work through. We’ve got your back! With 24me’s procrastination fighter feature, you’ll be able to tackle those procrastination issues head-on, and get your life back on track so that you can feel confident heading into the new school year. The procrastination fighter sends you notifications to let you know you have a free spot on your schedule, so you can complete your overdue tasks at that time.
  2. Agenda for today – 24me  sends a customized notification that reminds you of your tasks and events for the day. You can set the time you want to receive the notification. This is a perfect way to start the day and ensure you don’t forget anything. 
  3. Agenda for tomorrow – If you want to be a head of things, the ‘agenda for tomorrow’ is especially for you. 24me sends  a notification reminding you what events and tasks you have for tomorrow. You have the ability to change the time of receiving the notification. This is how you’ll keep yourself aware of events and task happening tomorrow and get ready for that ahead of time. 
  4. Completion button for tasks – The completion of tasks has never been easier. Creating a task with the words “call/text/email…” will automatically create a task that will be completed with the tap of a  button. For text or email tasks, you can even put the content of the text message or the email, schedule the time you want the reminder and when it pops, the text message or email will be sent with a tap on the task’s completion button.
  1. 24me keeper – Do you keep losing recipes, or forgetting to read articles? 24me Keeper allows you to save any article or recipe you’d like and even schedule a time to read it. That way, you’ll never forget to read another article for class again. 
  2. Label tasks – Having many tasks can be overwhelming, which is why we created in app labels. This allows you to label different tasks, for example, exam/homework/project etc. which gives you the ability to easily distinguish between the categories. 
  1. Widgets – To make 24me even more convenient, you can add 24me to your widgets. This allows you to be more efficient and makes viewing your to-do list so much easier. 

With 24me you can plan out your schedule by blocking time for studying, sports practice, or hanging out with friends and family. And if something comes up at the last minute? No worries! Just add it in at the last minute — 24me will keep track of your schedule so nothing slips through the cracks. 24me is just like having your own personal assistant right on your phone, tablet and even laptop! 

Wishing you a successful academic year! ?‍??‍?

With Love ❤️
