Notion
I love how versatile the app is. I can almost do every on the platform, which saves my time from switching across multiple platforms. Most importantly, I can easily share my works with my college and teammates, which empower the entire collaboration process. It'll be great if Notion can come up with a lighter version of its mobile app. This will make the platform more accessible.
Todoist
I'm a student and I've been using this app for almost six months. How lightweight the app is makes me get the hang of it with zero-learning curve. I can easily set up my daily plan with some shortcuts, and the day just rolls out accordingly. This lets me stay focused and avoid distraction. It'll be great if there's a way for me to stick on the app, since I easily forget or tired of using this app from time to time.

Grammarly
I'm a student and I had subscribed to Grammarly Premium for 4 months. Its extension is useful in terms of grammar correction, which brings me confidence while generating my blog posts. The feature of words usage recommendation is the killer. It makes my writing more readable and concise. I think what I don't like about this product is its price, which is way too high due to its limited functionality. Most importantly, there has been lots of alternatives that offer similar features.

Readwise
I'm a student and product manager in Taiwan. I've been using Readwise Reader for last couple months, and it's 200% improved my reading experience. The entire product puts efforts on solving people's info-consuming-related pain points, such as info overload, distraction, etc, and its first-class UX tackle them in such an elegant manner. However, it'll be great if Reader app can be fully integrated with the highlight feature in original Readwise application, so that I don't have to switch between two platform and prevent from such distraction as a reader. Also, note-taking in Chinese is essential for me but it isn't will supported in the current version. Overall it's a great product, and a bold move as a tech company in current era. Can't wait for future updates!
