I hate them 😤
Anyone here who feels the same? Why?

Isn't that true for any category? There are plenty of apps that fall into similar categories.
@udaya_sri Could be. I am pretty sure. There's more than we need. Plus, I do get the notion of 8B businesses (a day in future). But I just hate apps being productive so the rant..
What category irks you the most?
From my perspective, many productivity app creators are solving their own problems. They see a gap in the market based on their experiences and want to build something that works for them

Or may be we don't look hard enough? 🤔
Because there's always something new to do to make our work processes better, I believe that developers of productivity apps continue to innovate. For me, it seems like there is always something fresh to streamline or optimize

I think a solution creates a problem to which we need a solution that creates another problem.
It's a never ending loop.
I think the way we work keeps evolving, so there's always a demand for new tools. As remote work and different workflows become more common, there's always room for new productivity soloutions
For sure a saturated market.
I get it, But for some, it’s about finding the perfect tool to fit their specific needs. It’s almost like a quest for the ultimate productivity hack.
Because people are always looking for the next big thing to boost their productivity! Plus there's that allure of the billion dollar exit... 🤑 Personally I use Motion for task management and Mem.ai for notes - both great tools built by solid teams. Anyone found a new productivity app they're loving recently?
