Time Management Apps

One of the most important aspects of going back to school is getting back into a schedule. In order to get into the swing of things you’re going to want to keep track of a lot.

1. Organizer: Google Keep is one of the best apps to keep a schedule. It’s the perfect reminder list and you can always get on time and organized for what you need to do. Set an alert or remind yourself that you’ll get started on the work at around this time.

2. Weather: No need to look to the sky and waste precious time in the morning. One of the first things you need to do in the morning is get dressed and ready. This depends heavily on the weather. You can figure that out by using Weather Live Free, a direct source for the weather around you.

Research and Study Apps

This is the time to start learning research principles and reading new works to expand and enlighten the mind. Being able to receive these amazing resources should be handled with ease. There’s no reason a student shouldn’t have everything just a click away.

3. Digital Book: The Amazon Kindle is a must have for the modern age. All kinds of school subjects are being assigned in this database. Get the latest hit novel or have a digital copy for that science class.

4. Book Resources: After you’ve got your book, check out Scribd. It’s basically a streaming service for books to read. There are audio books, which is great for students and other topics.

Productivity Apps

Once you’ve got everything in check, it’s best to have a central management system for yourself. There’s a load of free apps out there that help build the foundation and bring all other Android apps together. The real benefit is bringing everything together for success.

5. Content Management: Google Apps are broad and varied. You’ll be able to use Docs, Sheets, and Slides in your Google Drive to put everything in one shareable space.

6. Calculations: As you progress your way through mathematics you’ll need an app that can handle graphing and various calculation. A good calculator can handle advanced algebraic equations and graphing. Along with this app you’ll be able to check over your homework on the go.
