Our brain is so overwhelmed with information that most of us require some form of reminders to remind us of various things. If you have not yet found the right reminder app that helps you remind/remember things, try EZBuzz for iPhone. Functionality wise, EZBuzz give you a voice-oriented way to save and manage to-dos in minimal time. EZBuzz productivity app for iPhone can be downloaded for free from iTunes App Store.
How EZBuzz iPhone App Works?
Here is how to use EZBuzz app for iPhone: select the required time frame from the scrolling date’s list, tap on a particular date, double click on the desired hour, and say your notes as quick reminders of tasks requiring completion. The app will record you commands, and will buzz you with the set reminder when the date and time comes. However, EZBuzz iPhone app is not about audio reminders alone. You can also use it to note down reminders, add a photo, or schedule alarms to the event. You can also use all these functions to have an audio and visual representation. True, there is not as much notes space available as we would have liked; but then hearing your own voice to grab milk and egg is much better than reading about it anyway.
Rescheduling a particular reminder is also a cake walk; simply drag it on the Time-Scale. Further, there is automatic purging of reminders, icon badge to count past and unread reminders, and Minute-Snapping modes for nearest 5th, 10th and 15th minutes. On the downside, integration with Google Calendar leaves a lot to be desired. Also, you can’t export notes directly to iCal complete with audio. The user interface is slick and responsive. The app’s design centered on a central scrolling date’s list, which is double-clicked at any point to add a todo, has user friendliness written all over it . If to benchmark, EZBuzz iPhone application is It is much easier to use than iCal. The app requires iOS 4.0 or higher.
Final Thoughts
EZBuzz app for iPhone combines an incredible user interface and an awesome voice based note creation on top of typical todo app functionality. It is a neat package as far as setting reminders goes, but lack of integration with some popular calendar apps in the iPhone stands out. Hope coming versions rectify this shortcoming. Verdict: EZBuzz is a handy to-do app to have in your iPhone. And it is not that expensive that you can’t try it out.
