Motion: Tasks & AI Scheduling

I spend a lot of time re-organizing and re-prioritizing my tasks when life throws me curve balls. Between running a business day-to-day, being a healthcare professional, overseeing a community civic center, and managing maintenance and repairs of my rental properties while making as much time for the wife and 2 kids as possible, time is quite valuable to me. After getting most of my common tasks onto Motion, and even many small one-time tasks, I was able to watch it reschedule them as the day went by to reprioritize my time and accomplish my personally established deadlines. I am seeing how I will be less overwhelmed at the end of a work day, even after numerous fires and curveballs distracting, and can go home with the piece of mind knowing I’ll have enough time to accomplish the things I need to in the days ahead. As a Type A personality who wants full control of my time and how I spend it, I was skeptical at first, but once I took the time to plug things in and see that it could work for me, I am eager to make it part of my daily life!

This app is so user friendly and I love how it keeps in sync with my Google calendar. I use it so much that I actually made it one of my 4 shortcut icons across the bottom of my phone. My favorite thing about it is as my day goes on and surprises happen, my to do items shift around throughout the day. So if i planned to take 2 important things and 1 low priority thing from 10:00-11:00, but I ended up in a conference call and didn’t do the tasks …when 11:00 hits and I haven’t checked them off, the rest of my day reschedules to make sure I get those 2 important things in somewhere…maybe a few low priority things will shift to tomorrow in order to free up the time. I LOVE a paper calendar with multi colored markers and to do lists…but this is MUCH more efficient because I can plan my day out all that I want, but surprises and emergencies are inevitable. No more drawing arrows all over my paper calendars to show where I’m moving a task to 😂 I also love that the recurring task feature is flexible…so for example I do payroll every 2 weeks and it just has to be done by Wednesday at noon. I have the task recurring every 2 weeks from Monday-Wednesday, and motion will fit it into a convenient spot so I’m not scrambling at the last minute- I’m usually getting payroll in a day or two early now! Worth every penny for this mom of busy teens, medical provider, multi-practice owner with rentals and caring for elderly relatives.

OK, let’s not get ahead of ourselves and say there is artificial intelligence in play here. I haven’t seen anything of that sort in my trial time. It looks like there is an algorithm that works based on the constraints that I set(time of day, priority, deadline, duration). It just fills the schedule based on these parameters. An AI, with the new meaning of the paradigm, would change those around against the user’s settings based on previous data. I don’t see any of that except the email-to-task feature (which’s usually a miss, in so many ways). But its existence is cool by itself. So I don’t mind. As for the mobile app, it’s not as good as the Mac app, and that’s a problem. So the 2 stars is for the mobile app. The Mac app would get maybe 3 or 4. The whole platform would get a solid 3 from me. I plan to get the full year and commit to be a personal user. My only fear is the developers are hoping to switch to the business to business area for bigger customer base and profits, which will probably mean irrelevant features for me on the long run (the whole booking tab is useless to me already). I hope they can find some balance, and at least keep it bug free and usable for the solo users all the time. Because I certainly won’t start a company in the near future based on what my schedule tells me :) and I’ll leave the app for the first reasonable competition on sight if things come to it.

I have 3 clients. Each of these clients have me work on multiple projects: course creation; content creation; student training, etc. Each of these projects are different priorities with different due dates and some will take longer to complete than others. A couple days ago I found myself with a 5 hour block with no meetings and was so excited to actually get some work done …and had no idea what to do. I’ve also thought Time Blocking was arbitrary and therefore I was resistant. But now, Motion looks at my workload across all my clients, factors in priorities, durations, and due dates and tells me what to work on and I AM HERE FOR IT! It’s taking me a little time to figure out how to “set up” but I’m getting there. (Example: do I need to identify tasks and subtasks, or is it enough to enter the task, estimate the total duration to finish and allow Motion to break that time into chunks? So far the latter is much easier/faster and works for many of my simpler projects). Today, I’m setting up Motion with Siri, so I can add tasks on the fly. I’ve been a customer for like 4 days and I think I’m in love.

I cannot recommend Motion enough! This app has completely revolutionized the way I manage both my business and personal life. The organization and dynamic features it offers have streamlined my workflow and significantly boosted my productivity. Before Motion, I was constantly juggling tasks, meetings, and personal commitments—feeling overwhelmed by it all. Now, everything is seamlessly organized, and I feel in complete control of my schedule. The automated task scheduling is a lifesaver, allowing me to prioritize what’s important while ensuring I never miss a deadline. Motion’s flexibility is unmatched—it adapts to changes in my day with ease, recalibrating my tasks instantly so I can stay on track. Plus, its clean and intuitive design makes it so easy to use, no matter how packed my day gets. Whether you’re managing a business, juggling personal commitments, or both, Motion is the ultimate tool for maximizing productivity and minimizing stress. I can't imagine going back to the chaos I had before discovering this app. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to level up their organization and efficiency!

I am deeply disappointed with my experience using motion. I have been using Motion for just over 3 months. I signed up, expecting an AI powered calendar design to help individuals with ADHD manage tasks and time more efficiently, but it falls short. The task and project management tools are clunky and tedious. The AI just dumps tasks into available timeslots without optimizing my schedule, often leaving large blocks of time wasted. I end up manually re-organizing everything which defeats the purpose of the app. Additionally, the lack of customization makes the platform feel bland and uninspiring. For those of us with ADHD, creativity and visual engagement is crucial, but motion offers none of that. Honestly, Google calendar does the same job - and it’s free. To make matters worse, the customer service is nonexistent. After canceling my subscription on September 3, 2024, and requesting a refund for the unused months totaling $190, I received a processing ticket and was told I would get a follow up email. It is now mid September and I haven’t heard a word. It’s also incredibly difficult to find any direct way to contact their support team beyond an unhelpful chatbot. I would not recommend motion to anyone, especially when free alternatives offer the same functionality without the hassle and frustration of ineffective AI.

For years I’ve tried so many different task management apps trying to find one that really worked. I was hesitant to try motion at first because of the price but finally gave it a try. It’s AMAZING. An easy to use app that’s brings every aspect of your life together in one tool. Combining the ability to pull together work tasks and family/mom tasks into one place. Add tasks is quick and easy with a low barrier. And easy to prioritize so nothing is missed and lower future priority items aren’t forgotten and come up again at the right time. I have this app open on one computer monitor at all times - it’s my bible with how I run my day. One of my favorite features is the ability to define custom time slots like “work hours”, “in office hours”, “weekend nap time” and buckets that are very specific to me - and then schedule my tasks into those time boxes. Ensures work items are presented at the right time. Updates and new features are constantly being pushed to the phone app and desktop app and always getting better. Biggest fan. ❤️❤️❤️

There are tons of Motion ads saying that it’s a tool for ADHD. From the point of view of neurotypical it might appear this way, but it’s not. Don’t capitalize on us (ADHD folks) before actually running A/B testing on neurodivergent people. There are so many features that make ADHDer cry rather than improve performance. Like have you seen the “all projects” page? It’s the mess! Everything is written in the same font, titles for workspaces and tasks are the same, no colors or anything added to help to “read” the page. It takes me a lot of time to figure out where one workspace ends and another begins. Or the need to type the whole name of the project if I want to delete it! Seriously? My projects names are so misspelled and so long, and you guys make me feel embarrassed to re-type it, and then embarrassed that I can’t correctly re-type it on the 1st or even the 2nd, and most likely the 3rd attempt. Also, it doesn’t give an option to rearrange tasks easily. It gives me a stupid warning every time I try to do so, so I need to do extra work of closing that warning. And it changes the task task type of I just want to move to a another day or something. Make the app easy to navigate, test it on neurodivergent people, and only then run targeted ads

This is the only time I have left a review for an App. I had no idea when I signed up for the free trial that the app is only a supplement to the website. I tried to set it up on my computer when I actually had access to a computer, but I could not get past the screen that asked about my “business”: how many employees, etc., but I was planning to use it as an individual. I even went to the help website and it did not offer any useful information for simply setting it up. I failed to cancel before the end of my free trial because I was hoping I could figure it out and use it. It’s not directly Motion’s fault because I didn’t cancel in time, but I’m out the $200+ for an App that cannot be completely utilized from my phone, which is what I needed, and that I could not even get set up to know if it would be useful. I requested a refund and was not surprised when I was denied. After watching some videos online about it, I don’t think it would have been useful to me as an individual. It was the “gain more hours in your day” with the girl getting her house tidied that got me, but it’s more of a business App for meetings and projects and such.

I can't express enough how much of a game changer the Motion app has been for me. As someone with a hectic schedule, staying organized has always been a challenge. But with Motion, that challenge has become a thing of the past. This AI-powered calendar seamlessly integrates with my workflow, effortlessly organizing my tasks and commitments. I simply input my tasks and deadlines, and Motion does the rest, intelligently scheduling them into my calendar based on my availability and priorities. What I love most about Motion is its ability to adapt to my ever-changing schedule. It dynamically shifts tasks around to ensure I stay on track, even when unexpected events arise. Thanks to Motion, I no longer feel overwhelmed by my workload. Instead, I feel empowered and in control of my time. If you're looking for a tool to help you stay organized and on top of your tasks, look no further than the Motion app. It's a true game changer. Highly recommended!

I signed up for the 7 day free trial, and on the same day initiated a request with my company to get permission to link my work calendar to this software. I spent the seven days trying to decide if the software would even be useful for me (jury still out but leaning to no). Because I signed up on a weekend and the week of the seven day trial contained a holiday, I was ONE DAY past the free trial being over before being told my company would not allow me to connect my calendar, making this product useless. I immediately cancelled and emailed the company to let them know I couldn’t use the software and asking to be refunded for the unused portion of time since I was not permitted to use the software. Five emails later with no response I dispute with my credit card company. You better believe this company has an entire department dedicated to ensuring they respond to credit card company disputes but not a single human willing or able to reply to FIVE MESSAGES asking for assistance. Absolutely horrible business practices and from what I could tell a platform that is basic at doesn’t address remotely complex needs anyway.

Yikes so much potential, but so much failing! This “AI” (it’s just an algorithm but ok fancy marketing) does not allow for quite enough human say in the matter of scheduling their day - an example - I can’t rearrange the schedule for a project due this week to have split hours (some in the morning and some in the afternoon) today. Instead it’s insistent I work on another project (that I can work on tomorrow) this afternoon and no Mayer what I do (drop and drag, change due dates) it refuses to let me schedule it today. Instead, even though there’s now a blank time block in my schedule, says I’m not going to get the task done - just let me put it in the available time block!!! Another major issue, when it doesn’t get the scheduling quite right and you want to move things, it doesn’t understand how to just push everything 30 mins, it rearranged EVERYTHING and turns an organized day that was pushed 30 mins cause a call ran long, I to chaos! It ALMOST gets it right, but, it fails in a way that makes it impossible to really use even though it’s so close.

I think Motion is a really great product. I’ve been using it for a while now and it helps me with the way that I think I tell it things I need to do and how long it will take and it just puts it on the calendar for me I can tell it to schedule things and my work hours or my off hoursor my hobby hours as a person with a mishmash of art projects and home work and kids to take care of and family stuff and online businesses to manage things get really hairy. This app really helps me to keep on top of all the things, but also make my goals accessible. The only downside to this app is it might be a little too robust for me and it cost a little bit too much money but the trees until there’s a better option for this I’m gonna continue to pay it because I haven’t found anything else like it.

I feel like the ads completely misrepresent this app. I wish I knew it required desktop computer use before doing the free trial. It is not at all made for mobile and is so unideal and useless to use. I’m mostly a tablet user. I’m a total idiot and didn’t have a computer to complete the set up, then the free trial ended and I was auto charged. So I went about setting it up figuring I’d at least try using it. Besides that, which I could live with if it was a good product, it doesn’t do the things I actually want to do. It only lets you set “work hours” but I want to differentiate between different projects and time periods. I’m a student so I really need to be able to set different blocks for individual subjects to work only on specific tasks/projects, versus being at work and only being able to work on certain projects. The calendars are also really inefficient, it wouldn’t let me edit events and you can’t use both Google and iCloud calendars if your gmail is your iCloud email. Really really unhappy

Firstly: 7 days is not enough of a trial period. I decided to give it a couple more weeks, but then saw I’d already been charged $228 for a full year—I must not have changed it from the default option. My fault I suppose, but I find this really irritating. Motion could be good for some people, but it’s just not for me at this time. Here’s why: My schedule is too full & too dynamic. My days frequently fill up, and tasks get pushed to future dates—regardless of priority or deadline. The only way around this is to mark tasks for “any time” instead of “working hours”, but then it effectively just becomes a to-do list. I have no typical “work hours.” I travel extensively, and am often on a 5-hour time difference from most of my team. On a daily basis I have to balance work priorities with personal time and sleep, so I have no set working hours. Changing them every day in the app is annoying. You really have to learn to think like the app and understand how it prioritizes to make it work with a schedule like mine. It might be worth it, if pop-up alerts actually worked (and on all device types), but they don’t seem to. The end result is that I lost track of things far more often than I did with my old system—a paper notebook! There are some good ideas here, but I’d guess most of them will be integrated features of Outlook within a few years.

I have a lot of to do lists. Whether it’s work or my side hustles or my personal life, I have 1 million tasks to do and they just end up becoming lists of undone items because I have always told myself that I can never find the time to do these things. I got extremely excited about Motion! I love how I can just input a task, give it an estimation for how long it will take to do the task, and Motion will find some time in my calendar to place the task as an appointment. It’s a simple but fantastic concept. HOWEVER - there are two very important features that are missing: the lack of an equally robust mobile app with notifications, and/or Not being able to sync the Motion Tasks to an outside calendar so that notifications could be enabled through a third-party app. This means that you must be tethered to your desktop at all times in order to get notification so about an upcoming task. Although I do work at my desktop quite a bit, I would say a good chunk of my work is done in the field, and notifications on mobile are in absolute must. Of course, this also means that there are no iOS widgets, or Apple Watch app either. The annual subscription is over $200, and even though the desktop functionality is amazing, I cannot fully justify the cost without a full suite that goes wherever you go.

I’ve tried people I’ve tried apps I’ve tried everything to keep up with the tasks and ideas that I want to follow up with. I’m always having to slow down in order to have someone help me remember and it kills my progress. I just set up my Siri to listen to gibberish I say about a task and then translate that to actionable steps right inside of the Motion Ai task calendar. And with the Ai automatically finding me time and the ease of adding notes…combine that with a great desktop version and you have something I just can’t find anywhere. If you are high energy, slightly manic and adhd (super powers ) and need something to dump your thoughts in and follow up like the perfect assistant that you’re pulling your hair out trying to find… This is the app. You can do this 🤓🤙

I came across “AI calendars” a couple months ago. it looked interesting. I made a note to revisit the technology when I could use it. Fast-forward a little bit to when I was ready to live more disciplined and enter MOTION. This app is served incredibly. A couple of other apps simultaneously that were cheaper, but none of them offered live AI updates and the project management tools were far to team dependent. I now use Motion to manage my family, personal, side hustle, and management work schedule. I’m the only thing holding technology back from being more effective. It’s worth every penny. Don’t let the cheapskates dissuade you. It will allow you to schedule the way you’ve never scheduled before which is worth thousands of dollars in a management role.

I had Motion for a year and then cancelled. What I liked about it was the automatic scheduling, that’s a brilliant feature for someone who is juggling multiple tasks. I decided to cancel because the things that are important with juggling is notifications, notifications, notifications. The fact that I would have to always check my day on my desktop was not feasibly possible however, if I’m notified on my phone for something I have to do then I can grab my laptop and do it. I gave it a try again because I would get emails about multiple changes to the program, to the app, etc. Mainly asking Siri and having notifications. Unfortunately… I am unable to utilize any of this. Siri doesn’t recognize the app to ask. Notifications don’t notify even though they are enabled. So it’s still not providing me with what I need. Not good, still needs more work done.

Update. Customer service issued a refund in less than 12 hours. Have to admit that impressed me. I wasn’t using because work would not allow the app to be used with our calendar scheduling. That was the only reason I had canceled. Changing my rating to reflect the superior customer service. You have to go onto the website to cancel. I canceled this two weeks ago and got a message that it would be available to me through the 14th. Today I just got charged for another month. When I signed in I showed me active again. I canceled again and got the same message that I would be available to the 14th of the following month.

I downloaded this app for the free 7 day trail and I wanted to love it. The app is touted to help people with ADHD like myself but it completely misses the mark in a really big way. It doesn’t alert you on your phone when a task is due, even if you have the motion app on your phone. It dings on the computer, which is ok but unless you’re sitting at your computer all day then it’s rather pointless because in order to make it alert you on your phone you have to manually go into your calendar on your phone and schedule stuff so your phone alerts you, which defeats the entire purpose of the auto scheduling feature. If that was worked out then it would be worth it but as it is now, a calendar on my computer is nothing more than a back up calendar.

I don’t usually write reviews. But Motion is revolutionary. The happiness algorithm they promote states it will help you: feel accomplished, get serious stuff done, and relax and sleep better. Check, check, and check. After week and half of use, I think my productivity is up 10x. I’ve always had a great calendar and great todo list. I’ve never been able to effectively coordinate them. Most days I would procrastinate because I didn’t know where to best focus my attention next. Motion solves that problem. And I still have complete control over my time. If I need to adjust my time, motion does all the work to adjust everything else. Big fan. Worth the $$.

Scheduling routine events or importing most calendars is very easy, however where this app really sets itself apart from the rest is the AI powered task system. The moment you think of a task for your business, for your family, work, anything. Create it and the AI will take care of the rest. Tasks that aren’t completed Motion will move it to the next logical spot in your set hours. Making it so you have so many less “oh snap I forgot to do that” moments. Turning big goals into small steps that keep pinging you and adapting to your quickly changing schedule. I highly recommend Motion especially if you have big goals and aren’t sure where to start!

I run a commercial commercial construction company and this app has been a game changer. As far as organization time management and project timelines it is phenomenal. This is probably the only application I use on a daily basis to help organize jobs tasks within jobs and my weekly schedule. Anytime I have any problems the customer service is extremely responsive and helps me resolve issues quickly. If you’re like me and unorganized because you’re constantly busy this app is going to be a game changer for you. I highly recommend it and can’t wait to see what other features they include on future updates.

There comes a point where AI cannot resolve everything, and having employees available to work is essential. I have been trying out Motion, and so far, it has been disappointing. As a result, I will not be rolling it out to my entire team. Every time I try to log into the app, it prompts me to set up my account on their website, despite having already done so. I have verified my account setup on their website, deleted and reinstalled the app, yet the issue persists. Additionally, their customer support is unresponsive; it takes them hours to respond to messages, resulting in days to resolve the issue. As a business owner, I do not have the time for this. They market themselves as a solution for CEOs, but I do not have the time to deal with these problems. Motion needs to function as intended, yet they cannot seem to get their act together

I’ve been using Motion for some time in hopes of becoming more productive and tackling the mountain of tasks I have. I figured I’d give Motion a try, only to realise that no actual AI is used. It’s simply an algorithm that randomly places your tasks on a calendar. The worst part is that the algorithm doesn’t always know how to schedule correctly. For instance, if you have an event on your calendar, such as a meeting, it may randomly decide to exclude it for the day or change the time. Essentially, the product is just a calendar, and you can easily achieve the same results using any other calendar app. Technically, the app is extremely simple and might be worth no more than $2.99 a month. What really annoys me, however, is the false advertising of AI. This is not AI at all! It’s just another one of those fake AI companies misleading people by misusing the term.

Marketing wank: “The TODO list and calendar is dead, we disrupting paradigms out here” Reality: It’s just another calendar and TODO list. Literally the entire UI is based around this tedious, gridlocked convention. Marketing Wank: “it’ll change your life and fix your ADHD” Reality: It’s the “if you only applied yourself” and “you have so much potential” of software. A sick joke constructed by what neurotypicals *think* ADHD ppl need. Overwhelming projects lists, icons for all the overwhelming amount of dates, priority, status, stage, labels, assignee, assigner, etc, - input data you have to feed the “AI” to make it work. Speaking of… Marketing Wank: “Powered by AI” Reality: An if-else tree and change-making algorithm might trick investors into thinking you’ve got AI, but we all know it’s a pathetic hype play. There is no learning. No inferencing. This stupid robot still requires you to feed it gobs of structured data just like every other productivity app. The business is obviously pivoting their failure in individual productivity to a teams/org collaboration strategy, and all the pointy haired bosses are responding to the dinner bell. Good for you, go be the next Jira, but I’m giving you one star for lying to my fsking face about what your product actually does.

I love motion, the way it’s able to organize my busy day can really be a big help when I’m trying to organize…only if I can remember to check it. I’m someone who struggles to remember the events and tasks I wanted to get done in a day, I really think the option for push notifications and reminder timers (i.e remind 15 minutes before *said task/event) would make the application so even better!! I notice on the computer version notifications are already implemented but the phone version would benefit from this option as well! Otherwise keep up the great work motion team!!

Overall, the desktop and mobile applications offer a fairly seamless user experience thus making the cost feasible for the amount of money spent on an individual plan. I didn't see an option to add a widget to an Apple device and voice-enabled commands will make this a more complete solution. It's made keeping my personal and professional to do lists, calendar blocks and color coding more seamless. I hope the AI continues to evolve to further support applications like Motion that provide support that is applicable in both your personal and professional lives.

Love the idea of AI auto scheduling my tasks. Like the integration with Google Calendar. I’m disappointed by the design of the web-based site. 1. The task bar on the left hand side is chaotic looking and actually makes me feel less in control. It lists every single task I have coming up. Is there a way to hide it? 2. The name of the task on the calendar is often cut off so I need to click on the task item to see what it is. 3. In general the design does not feel clean— this is a major disappointment for someone who bought this expensive subscription hoping it would be my go-to calendar. Would love to stick with this but need to hear if Motion plans to do design improvements.

When I first signed up, I loved this webpage/app but now I find it frustrating. There is not a good connection between the web-based page and the app with a huge lag time for updating the calender. If you add in the fact that you can’t change anything without going on a webpage, that makes it incredibly frustrating. If I want to change a timeframe that I can schedule a task during, I have to go on my laptop in order to do that. I should be able to do the same thing on the app that I can do on the webpage or else I don’t see how this could work seamlessly. For this reason, I most likely will be cancelling after my free trial. I need something that connects freely with my phone, not being tied to a computer.

Is there going to be optimization for the Ipad version? I like in the interface on the iPhone but wish the Ipad version was better Going on the Ipad, I would like to see a widget that showed the schedule for the day and a widget to create tasks right from the home screen without having to open up the app. Trying to use this app to run my service company. Sometimes it's a bit of a hassle to get off a phone call and have to navigate to the app. Usually driving in a truck or hands tied up with something I enough to the point of not being able to stop and navigate to an app and create a task

I’ve stopped using Motion a few times, but recently decided to go all in. There is a bit of a learning curve and you have to really trust the methodology, but it’s incredibly freeing for me. I probably have ADHD and I defiantly don’t like making decisions and Motion helps with both. Inputting the tasks gives me a great sense of mental relief because I know I’ll get to it and I don’t have to spend extra mental bandwidth thinking about what I need to do next. If you’re planning on using Motion, just do it. Don’t keep your feet in two separate systems. Set up your different schedules and let the software build out your days. Don’t stress if things come up because Motion is going to automatically reschedule everything for you. Things Motion needs: -An iPad app (I’ll add an extra star ;) -Two way sync with ClickUp -The ability to add attachments to tasks -The ability to email a task into someone else’s calendar

I’m loving the Motion App, it has everything I need! I can write down anything from dropping my little ones off to daycare to when I see my next patient, to date nights, and big events we have going on. The color coordinating is GENIUS. PLUS, you can’t forget about the AI assistant and being able to fill gaps where needed. As a busy mom and nurse, I’m constantly on the go. The Motion App keeps me productive, not just busy. I highly recommend this for n anyone who is striving for success through motherhood, entrepreneurship, businessmen/women, etc!

Motion has done an absolutely phenomenal job. This is the one system that my ADHD brain has been searching for. I struggle when it comes to knowing exactly what it is to do next, this solves that. It also does an incredible job suggesting steps when you send tasks to it either through email or through Siri voice notes. It helps keep me focused, and I am spending much more time doing what I’d like to be doing, which is spending time with my team and family. Bless you and your company for providing this amazing resource!

This is much more than a todo list. It’s my life organizer. It does take some time to set up your projects and spaces and input your first tasks, but building off of that is very easy. Before Motion, I was always forgetting tasks that had more than a month or two outlook. Now I have peace of mind when it comes to making sure my todos are documented and won’t be forgotten down the road. I like that the team is always improving and adding new features. I pay for the monthly subscription and it’s worth every penny.

I've been looking for this kind of functionality for years. It's not just that it schedules things for you - it changes how you think about tasks. Even with a mountain of work ahead of you, you can approach each task knowing you're not missing something else. I had it hoped it would help in a practical way, and it has, but it's also changed my whole attitude towards getting work done - and this allows me to be more present when I am NOT working. I love it.

I am a mom of 3 and a middle school teacher. I have absolutely fallen in love with Motion! My kids all have a variety of events to attend almost daily, and I have lots of work deadlines and sometimes I just can’t keep up! Motion generates and stores all of our schedules in one place so I can easily see everything that is going on and I never miss a beat at work or at home! It even automatically builds in time for my workouts and meal prepping. This app has made my chaotic life a way less stressful!

Clunky UI with so much unnecessary visual noise (AI ‘sparkle’ doesn’t need to be forced into every AI-created task name. Useless.), scheduling capabilities I don’t even use are forced to be shown in the side bar, PERSISTENT AD at the top encouraging a discount for teams (I’m a paid user - get ads out of my view), app always defaults to Week view where the font is absurdly tiny, Siri Shortcuts and other integrations are extremely limited (forces you to use the bad ‘AI/sparkle’ version when creating tasks instead of being able to directly define parameters such as schedule type. So much low-hanging fruit being ignored makes this unusable and easily my biggest software purchase regret of 2023. The marketing is WAY better than the product, especially for the price. Be warned.

In the first year of my administration, i’m currently going crazy trying to balance my regular day teaching schedule with my new internship administration schedule with my graduate courses with my two children with my current coaching schedule and I also have a wife, so it seems to bring it all together and I’m feeling real great about motion because aftersleeping for the last month of depression and now getting traction on the things that I’ve let go and the things I need to get done it’s a daily grind motion gets through it

I’ve been using the Motion app for a few weeks now, and it’s already made a big difference in how I organize my day. The automatic task scheduling is a game-changer, and I love how it syncs with my calendar to adjust tasks based on priority and available time. It’s helped me stay on track and manage my workload better. That said, the interface can feel a bit cluttered at times, and I’d love to see more customization options for task categories. Overall, it’s a great productivity tool, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking to boost their efficiency!

I first started using Motion about ~1yr ago. The app had come a long way since then! I use the desktop app for all planning (big fan of email to task), so the mobile is perfect when I’m on the go between in-person meetings. Functionality is pretty smooth and it syncs perfectly with the main app. Siri integration is nice as well! Highly recommend if you love time blocking and already have a regular habit to import your tasks. Do try the trial first of course!

Absolutely love this app. As a mom who works a 9-5 and part time job from 5-9, I’m riding the struggle bus trying to manage my schedule. I used to rely on my iPhone calendar app but I hated when I had a change in my schedule and had to individually adjust each event and notification. This app uses AI to adjust my schedule to any changes which I absolutely love! It’s one less thing to worry about. I appreciate that this is user friendly and super easy to navigate. 10/10 would recommend!

Ive been usung thr app and program for a couple of days now and heres what I have so far: - Lacks password protection. As it stands, all you need is someone’s email address, provided they have an account, and you can wreak havoc on their schedule. Would like to see password protection. - When out and about like I am, the app does not provide notifications or reminders. You have to physically open the app to check your calendar. Would like push notifications so when I’m out and about it lets me know what’s next. - For repeat events it APPEARS that you can only schedule for a month at a time. I might be wrong on this one, but as I added items last night the end date was the following month. More to follow on that. If correct, then there should be an option to schedule things for longer periods at a time. Overall, it’s a fantastic concept and does as advertised. With a few upgrades/updates, this app would be perfect!!

Originally, I trialed Motion and a competing app. I decided to go with the competitor. But after several months, I had an epiphany of why Motion was better. It handled rescheduling in a much more automated and intuitive way! I switched back and I use it to plan everything. I do use their desktop app 98% of the time. But that's mainly because I have a desk job. Recently, they've been making improvements to their desktop app and I think they are all great! I think the app is becoming more polished and intuitive.

I spent so much time planning my day, by the time I got started I could barely accomplish my goals. I was always running behind. Trying to keep a constant inventory of ongoing projects and tasks in my head at all times took all of my energy, and I was burnt out fast. Motion is amazing, I can quickly input tasks and reminders as I think of them, and then relax in my off time. When it’s time to work, I log in and see my day planned for me. Like having a virtual assistant!

I was deceived by the ads for this product. As an avid tablet and phone user this product is not worth the $228/yearly price tag. The use of Ai is minimal (automatically alotting time for lunch, checking emails and standard work days) and integration with tools like Siri are redundant given those same features are available with the Apple calendar. The mobile App UI is also embarrassingly archaic and counterintuitive. Changing calendar views to see your weekly schedule (not just the daily schedule) is impossible in the mobile app and is not functional. I am planning on using this product as much as I can stand for the year I paid for, but I have already cancelled my subscription. Very disappointed.

I started using Motion a few months ago and it has helped me immensely to keep organized and on top of deadlines for client projects. The desktop version is great! But the app needs improvement. On the app, calendar events I’ve moved to different dates still show up on the previous date (don’t sync all the time). More importantly, it would be great if you could edit Tasks in the app, which isn’t possible right now. As someone who isn’t at their desk all the time, I rely on my phone while away. But this app isn’t yet reliable enough to trust it’ll help keep me on track as well as the desktop version does.

I like have some spontaneity to my life and motion allows for that while still keeping my goals on track. I love that the task blocks readjust if I take too long on one task or if I get inspired to do something else. There are some bugs and the app definitely needs to be a bit more capable - like you can’t copy and paste from the task descriptions from your phone 🫤 I still give it 5 stars because I’ve been using it for over a year and I just can’t quit it.

Motion is best AI productivity app I’ve tried so far. It has completely revolutionized my workflow, making tasks significantly more manageable. A must-download for anyone seeking a seamless and efficient approach to productivity during the workday. Motions's advanced algorithms also adapt to my work style, giving me optimized schedules that are unique to the scope of my day and enhance efficiency. With this app, achieving productivity milestones feels not only attainable but surprisingly enjoyable.
