Are you looking for some great motivational apps?
Would you like concrete tools to monitor and effectively improve your life?
Then you are in the right place! Below I will introduce you to the best 16 motivational apps available for both android and ios.
Motivational apps: what are they for?
Thinking about motivational apps certainly evokes tools that can give you the energy to move forward, facing your days with a lot of energy. But in reality there are different types and consequently also have different purposes.
So let's try to clarify the concept and talk about the main types of motivational apps.
The first type of app I want to tell you about is the one that gives you daily doses of motivation: in most cases these are quotes that can motivate you to achieve any goals you have set in life.
Another type of motivational app is the one that helps you clarify your goals and then go on to make them. The imagination of developers has no limits: there are some apps that act as real Life Coaches.
Then there are those apps that deal with the world of productivity: tools to get out of bed on time, or to optimize the management of one's commitments through the planning of activities.
A fourth type of motivational app concerns the introduction of positive habits in your life. There are apps that help you, for example, with affirmations or meditating, or even with the practice of gratitude.
Finally, there are the motivational apps dedicated to health. You will find, for example, applications dedicated to diet and weight loss, others that help you walk more or even quit smoking.
These were the main types of motivational apps that you can find, but I want to highlight the fact that it is by no means an exhaustive discussion, also because new ones are born every day.
