These days there seems to be an App that supports most things people are trying to do including those who are studying. Due to the increase in busyness that we all seem to be facing saving time is usually high on most people’s agendas. Well here are 7 of the best time saving Apps for students that might assist to gain some time back for yourself. All have basic packages which are free and available on multiple platforms including Android and IOS.
Evernote
This is one of my personal favourites and one that I use regularly to capture all sorts of personal and business information into one place. It allows you to gather everything you can think of like
notes from a meeting, class notes, lists, travel details, articles, links, photos, business cards, recipes, draft pieces of writing, thoughts, ideas and the list goes on …. One of its best features is the ability to search so you can easily find any information you have recorded. Another feature of Evernote is that is that it syncs instantly to all of my devices so it doesn’t matter what I am using at a point in time I can see all my information in the App.
Focus Booster
This is a great App for everyone but is really useful for students. It is marketed as the ‘digital Pomodoro timer’ and allows students to break up their time into manageable chunks. Focus Booster is a timer that can split up your revision sessions with a number of little breaks in order to keep you as productive as possible. You can also track how much time you spend studying on a certain topic.
Any.do
This App allows you to organize your day by allowing you to create reminders, to-do lists, notes and events and store them on the clean and easy-to-use Any.do interface. Although similar to other time management tools on the market, the app works across platforms, making it easy to switch from your phone to your laptop without missing anything on your schedule.
MyHomework
A digital student planner that helps students stay organised and keep track of classes, homework, tests and projects so you get them in on time and never forget to hand something in. The clean interface and design make this App great for University or secondary school students.
30:30
This is a great time or task manager App that is simple, attractive and easy to use. It allows you to get things done by setting up a list of tasks and adding the length of time for each of them. You then use the timer and it will tell you when to move on to the next task.
