MacVoices #24255: More with Mike Schmitz on LifeHQ (2)

Oct 18, 2024 | Interview

We wrap up our conversation with Mike Schmitz about how his latest project, LifeHQ, organizes your projects, to-dos, and your life (hence the name). Mike explains some of the key concepts behind his system, how it integrates with apps that you already are using, and the modularity of his approach. Best of all, you can adopt features as your needs and time dictate, rather than have to learn everything all at once. (Part 2)
