That $50 productivity app I bought literally made me less productive

I dropped $50 on an app that promised to 'optimize my workflow' and 'eliminate distractions.' Ended up spending two hours just tweaking settings and reading tutorials. By day 3 I was back to using a plain notebook. The whole thing felt like a scam from the start. Has anyone else fallen for a so-called productivity tool that just wasted your time?

You already had a workflow though, right?

Honestly same, it's rough when something that works breaks down like that.

Totally agree with you @uma_johnson. I had a pretty solid workflow going too, but yours sounds way more streamlined than mine ever was. Honestly, I love hearing how other people tweak theirs.
