With all of life’s distractions, it becomes easy to get a little bit side tracked. Simple, easy to use tools are key when it comes to efficiency and productivity.

Here are our top 5 iPad apps that will simply help you get things done, no frills added.

iA Writer

We love iA writer because of it’s clean and easy to use design for word processing. The app allows you to concentrate on your text and nothing but your text. With zero background distractions such as format tools, this app is perfect for focussing on the content of your writing rather than getting distracted with styling. A great feature of the app is ‘Focus Mode’ which blurs out everything ecept the lines of text your working on, allowing you to channel your concentration to the most important part. 4

How many times have you forgotten or misplaced your password, only to waste time and energy resetting it? Have you ever thought of how much time you spend simply entering your password? Seriously, somebody needs to create a bar graph for those stats!
