Ever felt like your to-do lists and calendars are more of a chore than a help? Motion promises to change that with its bold claim: “To-do lists are dead.” The app uses artificial intelligence (AI) to handle your scheduling, task prioritization, and even breaks — taking the burden of planning off your shoulders. Intrigued by its promise of a 25% productivity boost, I decided to give it a spin in 2023. Now, with several major updates in 2024, let’s dive into my updated experience with Motion and see if it finally lives up to the hype.

🧠 What Motion Promises

Motion aims to revolutionize time management with the following key features:

  • AI-powered scheduling: Motion creates your schedule for you by prioritizing tasks based on deadlines, meetings, and your working hours.
  • Unified calendar and to-do list: Everything is managed in one place.
  • Automatic rescheduling: If you miss a task, Motion shifts it to the next available slot — no manual juggling needed.
  • Self-care time: It even blocks out time for breaks and self-care activities, ensuring you don’t burn out.

Sounds perfect, right? Let’s see how these features, along with 2024 updates, actually perform.
