Productivity apps extend the capabilities of our mobile phones. Many such new apps are released every month and here are five such apps which arrived in the month of November. 
The selected apps deal with tasks management, tracking notifications, monitoring the device itself, and then there is one which works with meetings.
It works as an extension of the Evernote note taking app, letting users access the Evernote features right from their phone’s home screen. Using this app, one can store notes on the SD cards of the phone.
Many people use Evernote as their information repository but hesitate to access it through their mobile phones as it would take some time. But with this new application, Evernote has shortened the time lag giving users quick access to their notes.
There are two widget options for the users – small and large. Through the small widgets, users can create new text, audio notes and snapshot. The larger widget shows parts of the recently viewed notes.###PAGE###
