7 Useful Websites You Should Be Using Right Now for Productivity
The work of UI/UX designers requires not only creativity but also adequate time and resource management. To be as productive as possible, I’m constantly looking for services and tools that help me stay focused on projects and improve my workflow. Today, I want to share seven valuable sites.
Renderforest
You will find all helpful design tools on one platform. With Renderforest’s functionality, you can create spectacular videos, animations, maps, presentations, graphic design and professional websites.
Jitter Video
Need to create animated content and interfaces regularly? Jitter Video is suitable for both beginners and more experienced users. You can use ready-made templates and achieve complex effects of transitions and movements with essential tools based on ready-made examples.
The site has a separate section, UI / UX animations, where you can find everything you need to create animations for applications and websites. With animation presets you can make a compelling demonstration with a few clicks and then do more fine-tuning and customisation. What used to take us hours can now be done in minutes without sacrificing quality.
12fl.io
Want to peruse an article on UX design, learn a new methodology, and get to the bottom of it, but need to focus on pop-ups or adverts? Copy the link to the desired content in a line on the 12fl.io website, and forget about intrusive and visually distracting effects.
How does the service work? It simply disables JavaScript on websites. Try using it the next time you need to focus on text or other content on a site.
Unroll Me
Do you feel you are losing control of the messages and emails in your inbox? Unroll Me is a great tool to get things in order:
- Keep the subscriptions you want and need.
- Unsubscribe from unwanted newsletters.
- Organise all the rest into a daily digest so you spend minimal time browsing.
Darebee
Want to exercise more but lack motivation and don’t have time to search for programmes or exercises? On the Darebee website, you can find it all in a few clicks. There are more than 2200 workouts with load filters and more than 75 programmes (new ones are added every two months). By the way, there are no adverts on the site; it runs solely on user donations.
Quillbot
Do you need to rephrase text to appeal to website visitors or be more concise and succinct for presentations? Do you need to create multiple UX Microcopy variations? Try using quillbot.com’s AI-powered service.
With unlimited custom modes and eight preset modes, Paraphraser can paraphrase text as often as needed.
By the way, Quillbot can be added to Chrome, integrated into Word, and used on Facebook and LinkedIn. This is one of those tools that UX writers will appreciate.
Smartmockups
With this service, you can easily create a professional mockup for any device or physical product. It is one of the fastest web tools for creating mockups. Its advantage is that you don’t need any experience or special skills. Smartmockups is very easy to use.
Write what you used to be productive and get things done faster.
