I am a GTD veteran who has cycled through so many apps in the years, latest being todoist,and then also used trello, asana, outlook, a gazillion others I can't remember and also thebrain(hello 200 usd). But never could find the one, the system to rule them all because my needs depending on the project or mood would change. But. Even if that would not be the case I never could get full functionality from 1 app and always needed to use 2-3 others.
Marvin is different, it's a modular system which allows you to customise your personal flow. There are a lot of helpful explanation faq but they stand out because they are written by someone who has gone through the struggle of procrastination. Even when it read them I understood that I was missing a couple of key things like starting any task with an adjective. Not only are those guides helpful but they teach you the general idea too.
Support is outstanding :I ran into a small issue and contacted the Marvin team, got a response within 30 min- the issue was resolved.
Marvin is still growing though, they are adding many new features on a monthly basis which have no competitors :)
If you are looking for the Swiss lego army knife of productivity. You have found it
I stumbled across this GEM of brilliant productivity software one day on Reddit. I've tried just about every app out there and am a veteran Omnifocus user. It was recommended highly, so I figured I'd check it out.
Marvin is the app that I'd long been searching for! I knew that the app I wanted didn't exist, and it didn't until recently. I was moderately content with Omnifocus, knowing I wanted an app to do much more and manage every aspect of productivity simultaneously. I checked periodically for new software developments. Nothing. Just two months ago in my productivity software search, I didn't find anything better. Other apps didn't work well on my Android phone.
Marvin does it all! I'm more amazed by what I can do now with Marvin than when I chose Omnifocus as my first GTD app. I didn't think I could be amazed, since I'd seen it all. Just more apps which were glorified checklists, and highly overpriced for what they offered. I took less than an hour to get oriented fully in Marvin, and I realize now that the possibilities are endless. Everything is modular. You can customize it to be as minimalist or power-user-ready as you'd like. I had thoughts of what my ideal GTD app would be, and Marvin addresses what was missing in other apps. It was clearly designed thoughtfully. It was designed by someone who actually considered how to IMPLEMENT it in daily life. It wasn't just a new checklist. Go meet Marvin! As a veteran GTD productivity enthusiast, I can't recommend it more highly. Marvin has exceeded my expectations and shown me just how modular and comprehensive software can be. Marvin is your one-stop shop for pomodoro timers, priority management, to-do lists, everything.
Absolutely brilliant. -A very busy grad student
This is the best tool anyone could ever use to increase productivity and manage their lives. I’ve literally tried every single app out there, and Marvin takes the crown with its flexibility and ease of use. Besides, the support is world class and very responsive. Give it a try, you’ll be amazed by Amazing Marvin!
I have been looking for a flexible and organized productivity app for a while. I have used pretty much every app out there but to no avail. Thus I have been using both digital and physical means, which ultimately became a mess. Amazing Marvin takes away all the sore points of to-do list apps and adds many functionalities through its ingenious modular system known as strategies. I think it is a game-changer in the "productivity" environment.
In the past, my time spent with other to-do and calendar planner apps used to be so hopeless and frustrating. Each app didn’t quite have exactly what I wanted, and I’d need to constantly switch between +- 3 different planner, productivity, timer, habit tracker apps at the same time to try get what I want. Meanwhile Marvin is an integrated solution. It’s customizable, modular, flexible, and incredibly feature rich. You can experiment and create an individualized workflow that fits near any context of your life, making Marvin a long-term solution, and once you do figure out the workflow that works for you it’s an incredibly rewarding experience.
It takes some time getting used to the library of resources, designing your own workflow, experimenting with all the features but there are many tutorials posted by the creator of the app. The videos were easy to follow, patient, and created with care. On top of that there are pre-built workflow templates to choose from which were wonderful help when I was just starting out and felt overwhelmed.
Another thing I can attest to is Amazing Marvin’s incredibly kind and dedicated customer support team. It was a refreshingly helpful experience reaching out to them.
There’s just so much more I haven’t said about this software, so much I could gush about. But at the end of the day, its just one of those things you have to try out via free trial to see what the craze is all about. If you’re skeptical, it will help you to understand why Amazing Marvin is fully deserving of all the praise!
Amazing Marvin is my best discovery in the area of productivity. I'm a student and I use the GTD method and this was the only app that has the tools and flexibility for GTD. So many tools and customization options can get you confused at first, but the interface is very intuitive and it's pretty easy to learn how to use it. Amazing Marvin's team is also excellent and sends very fast responses.
I recommend!
I used to be a person who didn't like to manage my own tasks. In the end I wasted a lot of time. At the same time, every day is very boring and repeated. Trying marvin is my effort to break through the status quo. This made me very excited. I started to try to arrange my affairs a day in advance and then let go of the burden. With marvin's amazing features, I feel the joy of completing tasks, and at the same time I become more self-disciplined because of this. Thanks to marvin, I hope I can use it for a long time.
