Top 10 apps for students
February 21, 2015
iPhone apps are almost infinite, but here’s ten that are great for students.
- Snapchat – Definitely one of my favorites. I love the latest update that lets you view a variety of news sources like CNN, ESPN and People. Snapchat is slowly becoming more just an app for making funny faces with your friends.
- Free GraCalc – Great for students that don’t have a fancy Ti84. This apps works almost as well as any Ti84 from Texas Instruments, plus it’s got equations and references.
- Instagram – Basically one of the better social media sites in my opinion. There’s no character limit. Be sure to follow us @lhspublications
- Twitter – The social media site to be on. If you’re not on Twitter I don’t know how you procrastinate. Be sure to follow us @lHSROAR
- Spotify – My favorite way to listen to music; there’s tons and tons of music for free on this app. Every now and then there’s commercials but if you download Spotify Premium for a fee there’s no ads and unlimited skips. However, the free Spotify works great!
- GroupMe – Group texts can get super annoying, but they’re still fun. The solution is this app. It allows you to mute notifications but keeps all the fun of a group text.
- InstaSize – This app is fantastic for resizing pictures so that they fit perfectly in Instagram, there’s a wide range of filters too.
- POMELO – A photo editing app that has the best filters I’ve ever seen. All my selfies I edited with this app make me look like a movie star.
- Remind – Most teachers use Remind (what used to be Remind101), it’s definitely helpful to have the app instead of just getting texts from random numbers all the time.
- Google Drive (and its various accessory apps such as Docs, Sheets, Slides etc.) – I use Google Drive a lot at school, but it’s nice to have on my phone so I can access it anywhere.
