## How to choose Productivity tools

Productivity apps range from planners and note-taking tools to small utilities that do one routine job, such as converting a file, editing a PDF or making a QR code. Small utilities often run in the browser with nothing to install, while planners and note apps usually keep your data in an account that syncs between devices.

Before choosing, check where your files are processed and stored, whether the free version has size limits, sign-up requirements or a watermark, and how you can export your work if you switch apps later.
