What do you like best about Motion?

Prioritization and time-boxing for focus. Since using Motion, I do not forget stuff any more, I do the right things at the right time and I am better able to separate of what's important at the very moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

Sometimes the desktop ab is still a bit buggy that that's improving on da daily basis. If a company is as innovative as Motion, you have obstacles here and there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Focussing on doing the right things at the right time, without using much headspace of me to think about how I need to structure and prioritize my day. It's the perfect PA in that sense! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

It has liberated my mind from constantly stressing about getting my todos finished in time -> my tasks are scheduled and inconsistencies are flagged. My mind is clear thanks for Motion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

Since they've added the project management features, I've been a bit lost, and Motion has as well. Some of my tasks got lost and I had to go dig them up. Dependencies don't seem to get scheduled and stuff got lost on the wayside as a results. Dissappointing. Maybe a good tutorial would help? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

The scheduling system is really great, I schedule most of my meetings that way. Would be great to have an option for 'inperson' vs 'online' meetings. In terms of productivity, on those days where you don't know where to start, Motion will tell you where to start and that is priceless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

Helps me lay out my day ahead of time with prioritizing tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

It really works the best when you know how much time a task will take. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

While I have a general idea of how to prioritize things, sometimes getting the nitty gritty of which tasks to work on which days is difficult for me to wrap my head around. Motion does that thinking for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

Motion is great at helping create a tasklist which is scheduled in my calendar straight away. The process is great as it encourages prioritisation, and prevents overcommitting and not delivering.

Also really like Motion now distinguishes between work hours and night hours so I can choose when to schedule something. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

I don't like the black calendar background. It would be great if we could have the option for a white background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Motion solves the problem of overcommitment and forgetting to do a task. Tasks do not drop off the list unless they are deliberately marked as complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

Motion has been life-changing ever since I jumped into the space of using it. A majority of my time has been spent finding ways to organize my daily tasks that, all take between 15-30 minutes. Motion's next level is the ai task building converting into time blocks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

Their iPhone app needs some work to include more than just the main calendar and I also prefer to see completed tasks in the app, but it doesn't currently show. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Finding time on my calendar to do tasks and arranging them by importance changed the game for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

I love that it takes the guess work about what I should do that day...it lowers my decision fatigue and helps me plan my life Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

It is a little on the pricier side, especially as I started using it as a college student. Also, there are still some bugs. Nothing that totally ruins the experience, but it can make things a little slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Motion helps me to plan my day and prioritize my tasks. As a ADHD college student with two jobs and a five-year-old at home, this is really helpful to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

Motion is most helpful in arranging tasks and meetings automatically. Instead of trying to "fit" everything in, it automatically moves to fit tasks and meetings. Game Changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

Sometimes the interface is difficult to link and can be finicky. Once I have it set up, it works seamlessly. Overall, really no big issues and the online library is quite helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

The constant push-pull I have trying to figure out how to fit in tasks and appointments. It is like having an assistant for a fraction of the cost. Amazing concept and execution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

Easy to 'brain dump' and get all of my quick to-dos in. Also helps minimize my worry about forgetting long term ideas that I have. I can put them in and circle back to them when they pop up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

I'd like to be able to create a maximum duration for work chunks for projects. For example, if I have a 40 hour task for a bigger project, where it indicates a minimum work block time (breaking in to less time) I'd like to be able to put a max time, rather than having to manually break the steps down even further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prioritization. Recall of long-term goals. Re-allocation of time, related to scheduling. Able to automate recurring tasks simply. Leading to less worry about forgetting or mismanaging resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Motion?

Easy to use, intuitive, fairly customizable, replaces a number of disparate tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Motion?

Still has some added features that could make it a little better over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Motion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Knowing what to prioritize, estimating work effort, replacing tasks lists, and the enhancements that it has made to scheduling and all corresponding scheduling nightmares alone are worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
