Hello,

there are many tools and apps that researchers use for different purposes: writing, reference management, literature management, task management, data handling etc.

What research productivity/efficiency tools do you use and for what purpose?

Here's my list:

• Literature management: Mendeley (for storing and reading articles)
• Reading newest articles on the go: Researcher App (you can also send them to Mendeley via Researcher App)
• Taking notes and creating to-do lists: Google Keep (I like it more than Evernote or todoist)
• Discipline: Brain Focus (based on Pomodoro)
• Writing: Microsoft Word
• Handling data: Microsoft Excel
• Networking and sharing: ResearchGate, Academia.edu, LinkedIn

Thank you for your answers!
