Motion Reviews & Product Details

Motion actually helps me be reasonable with my time. Before Motion, I was just go-go-go. Now, I realise how much I am putting on my plate, and how unreasonable I'm being. Motion helps be prioritise my tasks and keep me on track. I use it everyday, open in a screen next to my working screen to keep me focused.

Sometimes, I with there was some more flexibility in the layout, but this is minor.

Helps me manage the overwhelm, create daily plans that actually make sense, and help me prioritise and manage tasks.

I love how Motion re-arranges my schedule automatically when something unexpected comes up and I cannot work on the task that was planned. I also love how it keeps my goals on track and my projects moving along. I work ~375 hours a month between two businesses I own and 3 volunteer organizations I am a part of. Keeping up with work, volunteer, and personal life tasks has become a challenge and I have been consistently dropping the ball. I have found that with Motion, I am dropping that ball less and staying much more focused on what needs to be done, rather than TRYING TO FIGURE OUT what needs to be done. I had been using ClickUp (free version) and Calendly (paid version) and so Motion was a tad bit more expensive than Calendly. However, for the amount of time I have already saved in only a couple of weeks of using Motion, it has already paid for itself for this annual plan.

There are a few things in Motion that I wish it had. For instance, we are limited to certain Frequencies and Durations rather than it being 100% flexible. Recurring Tasks cannot by assigned to a Project. It would also be great to Duplicate tasks rather than creating from scratch. Organizing Workspaces alphabetically or by manual reordering would also be great. Zapier from my Google Mail to Motion does not work (I contacted Zapier to request this) but it would help me a ton if I could turn all of my incoming emails into a Motion Task so that I don't have to input them manually. Perhaps they could go to a Sorting area so I can assign a Workspace, Project, Priority, Deadline, Recurrence, etc. Workspace-wide templates would also be great so I don't have to recreate the same template in each of my workspaces.

Having enough time to get everything done has been a struggle. I am able to track everything I need to do and see what had the highest priority to do next. I feel like I am much more productive than I was before.

I struggle greatly with procrastination and starting tasks and Motion has been instrumental in my academic and professional successes. Motion has taken the stress away from planning my daily workflow and it has helped me avoid many instances of execution paralysis.

I wish I could make tasks under a project recurring.

I no longer have to manually budget my time, which is an issue area of mine. This has helped me enjoy my free time more, knowing that I will be able to get everything done on time.

The best thing about it is how it takes stress from planning long-term projects.

When you set up templates or projects with many tasks, there's no way to click on the next one to move on to edit or edit a couple in a bundle.

Personally, it takes away the weight of having to decide what to do or what to start with when it comes to long-term projects.

Instead of just taking written "tasks" and manually moving them to the next day, Motion automatically takes my task list and prioritizes them based on by availability, so I really appreciate being able to do that without having to worry about it

A few more features would be better, such as searching tasks, being able to update calendar events, and adding some people to events. Not major issues - just ideas.

Task scheduling organization, and online scheduling is helpful

Easy to use, intuitive, fairly customizable, replaces a number of disparate tools.

Still has some added features that could make it a little better over time.

Knowing what to prioritize, estimating work effort, replacing tasks lists, and the enhancements that it has made to scheduling and all corresponding scheduling nightmares alone are worth it.

This program allows me to send links to people to schedule appointments. It auto fills my schedule based on tasks.

The biggest downside I have found is the lack of a tablet based app. In addition to the lack of a tablet application the mobile application can use some attention.

The solution that motion provides me is automated scheduling of appointments. I can send a simple link to multiple people and they can schedule appointments based on my avalibility.

The way Motion auto schedules your tasks for you and can create a message to send out when scheduling emails, with your available dates and times

I wish you could colour code tasks as I am very visual and love to colour code

It is saving me wasting time when scheduling meetings and tasks

Since using Motion I feel much more in control of my meetings and tasks -- it's been an absolute game changer!!!

There isn't anything that comes to mind!!

It allows me to focus on the bigger things

Motion has made me so much more productive! Adding tasks into the app gives me the accountability I need to get them done then it's so satisfying ticking them off! I also love the fact that it rearranges your schedule if somethign comes up so you can stay flexible and never forget a task.

It's a little bit tricky to get the hang of. But once you have got it it becomes second nature and I couldn't imgine life without it!

- Great for project management with my team. - The scheduling tool makes me more flexible. - It builds a to do list that I can tick off as I go.

I am a huge fan of time blocks. But manually scheduling tasks by priority into time blocks is a pain. Motion makes it simple and keeps the high priority tasks on the ip next time block. It has been a game changer

Search isn't the strongest. Rescheduling due dates could be easier for a large number of tasks. They should have an offline mode.

What tasks to do next in what priority order. Automatically keeping high priority tasks in schedule until I finish them

Let me start by saying, I am a huge fan of Motion! This tool has become an integral part of my daily routine, and helps me stay on top of my work and get more done with less effort. One of my favourite features of Motion is its automation and AI capabilities. With just a few clicks, it helps me plan my day across many time zones, schedule meetings, and build a to-do list that works for me. And the best part? It's incredibly intuitive, so I don't have to waste time trying to figure out how to use it. I love its seamless integration with Google Calendar. As someone who relies heavily on my calendar to manage my time, having everything - meetings and tasks - in one place has been a game-changer. Now, I can easily work around my meeting commitments and find time for deep, focused work on my most creative tasks.

The mobile app is not as helpful to me as the awesome desktop or web-based app. While I appreciate the convenience of being able to access my tasks and schedule on-the-go, I find that the mobile app is not as user-friendly as the other versions.

Motion solves the problem of coping with an often overwhelming workload and lack of deep focus by providing a comprehensive solution that intelligently plans and prioritises tasks and schedules meetings when I want them to happen. It's a game-changer.

It is actually the only method that helps me manage my tasks and have more time.

It's constantly evolving and now it has some bugs sometimes.

It's automating the time blocking method. It's the method that uses people like Elon Musk or Bill Gates. Now I'm really productive and I always know if I'm on schedule or not.

Motion is most helpful in arranging tasks and meetings automatically. Instead of trying to "fit" everything in, it automatically moves to fit tasks and meetings. Game Changer.

Sometimes the interface is difficult to link and can be finicky. Once I have it set up, it works seamlessly. Overall, really no big issues and the online library is quite helpful.

The constant push-pull I have trying to figure out how to fit in tasks and appointments. It is like having an assistant for a fraction of the cost. Amazing concept and execution.

This app is fantastic for those of us with busy jobs and ADHD. I have decision paralysis often and don't know what to work on next, but motion makes it easy to decide.

I would love the ability to look at our report on past talks that I've completed
