10+ best apps/tools for iPad to increase productivity

Apple iPad’s larger touch-screen and faster processing capability is always the topic focus of iPad itself. So what can we do with these two tangible key features? As productivity is among the hot topic in people’s business life, let’s roll out top 11 apps for iPad to increase our productivity by good margins.

Pages. Apple Inc. $9.99. Rating: 9/10. Apple’s full-featured word processor for the iPad gives you charts, tables, graphics, and of course, word processing, within an intuitive interface. It shares with the Mac version of Pages, with Microsoft Word, or via PDF. It’s just a very well-done word processor.

Watch video anywhere. Leawo Mac Video Converter. $35 10/10. Have bunch of videos in the format that can not be played on iPad? Chances are this video converter could be the best solution for you.

PDF Reader Pro Edition for iPad. iTech Development Systems. $3.99. Rating: 10/10. Adobe PDFs are just how documents are shared in the modern world, and iTech leads the pack in putting the “portable” into Portable Document Format. If you’re telecommuting via iPad, you’ll need this app.

Things for iPad. Cultured Code. $19.99. Rating: 7/10. How good does a to-do list – sorry, task organizer – have to be, to be worth $19.99? That’s the main argument against Things. On the other hand, it’s beautiful to look at and use, it’s deep and intuitive, and it’s much more than a bullet point list of tasks. You can sort them by various criteria, arrange lists into projects, and keep it all together with Things like with no other app. Still, 20 bucks buys a lot of bits of string to tie around your finger.

Desktop Connect. Antecea Inc. $11.99. Rating: 9/10. “Only connect,” wrote EM Forster, and Antecea took it literally. That’s what Desktop Connect does. Period. Remote control your Mac or PC from your iPad. Browse the web. Access any box on the network. Yes, it’s secure. Buy it.

Papers. Mekentosj BV. $14.99. Rating: 10/10. Science guys: Papers lets you organize scientific papers in your library and retrieve any of them at any time, with all the usual search and annotation functionality you would expect. Plus, it gives you access to eight widely used scholarly databases with millions of available articles.

iQue. Infomato, Inc. Free. Rating: 8/10. iQue is called FORGET on the iPhone, and it’s for forgetful people. Passwords, account numbers, personal info you don’t want to just jot down in a non-password-protected note? No problem. iQue uses associative memory, mimicking the way a normal brain remembers to help your gadget-addled version work properly.

Deskpad Office. Bluegrass Digital Inc. $3.99. 8/10. Pretty much like Post-It notes on your iPad. Pedestrian? Maybe. But how many stickies do you have on your computer monitor? Exactly. Plus, they’re on the inside of the screen, so they don’t fall off.

Office2 Pro. Byte Squared. $7.99. 8/10. Word and Excel. The big kahunas. Oh sure, you can get apps that do things better than Microsoft in any given instance. But these are the formats you want once you’re back in the office – the physical one. Open, edit, or create Word or Excel files on your iPad for $7.99. E-mail ‘em or stick ‘em out on the cloud. Still a little buggy, but you need it.

PrintCentral. EuroSmartz Ltd. $9.99. 8/10. The name says it all. Not everybody’s entirely paperless, so you can’t be either – Yet. Until that day, there’s this app.

HR at your Fingertips. HR Sentry. $1.99. 9/10. HIPAA. FMLA. FLSA. COBRA. Recognize the terms? Then get the App. They’re all in here.

Still take iPad as an oversized iPod? It is time to set your sight straight. Just look at how much business you can do with just your iPad with these productivity apps/tools! Now go and pack them up for your business success now.
