Ladies & Gentlemen, introducing… the mProductive, The Ultimate BlackBerry To Do List. One of the primary reasons for a business person to have a BlackBerry is to become more productive. But when you are relying on several applications or using BlackBerry Tasks, Calender, and MemoPad, that doesn’t integrate with each other, you may run into problems. Problems like how you remember about a special meeting, but then forgot to prepare a document for that meeting cause you wrote it down in your BlackBerry Tasks and forgot to check there. mProductive can you avoid these problems by combining all of these features all in one place.

The View of Your World – Now let’s take a closer look at the application. The app uses a clean and warm blue color scheme. Once you get into the application, it takes you to the main menu. It shows you how many email, SMS/MMS, and call history. Below, it lists out how many tasks you have; divided into to do today, past due, future, and unassigned items. So when you open the application every morning, you know what you need to do today and what tasks you have not completed and need to catch up on. At the bottom, it even shows you how many tasks you have for the rest of the week.

Link Related Items – mProductive is designed to be user friendly and easy to navigate around. You can look through your entries by project or categories; or you can sort them by project name, due date, priority, status, or name. One thing I really liked about this application is its ability to link items. You can link your tasks, memos and calender entries to a specific project or category. This is very convenient when you want to remember to do something before your next meeting. This way, you no longer have to juggle between your calender, tasks, and memopad; no more switching between applications. It really helps boost your productivity and help you stay organized.

update_250x188I just got confirmation that these three applications will soon be updated. While TaskMailer will experience a major version update (from 1.5 to 2.0), MemoryBooster will have some minor feature adds and SmartWiFi some bugs fixed. While MemoryBooster is still in the top 5 best-selling apps in App World, SmartWiFi already went up to place 35.

  • Memo Encryption

You can find more information on the actual program website: ActionPad for BlackBerry
(You also get a free download of the app there :) )

ActionPad Beta 10 - Pre-Release Screenshots ActionPad Beta 10 - Pre-Release Screenshots

It seems they fixed the encryption bug for non-English text which will make our Chinese Buddies very happy I guess :)

I don’t know what the other improvements will be over the last beta 9 (v0.8.1) which they released about 3 weeks ago. Will keep you guys posted on this! I hope the new version comes soon! I am so excited! 8-)
