There’s a million apps out there — literally!
Every day, more are created with promisesof being the next must-have app. To bring clarity to this sea of options, The Lamp’s Elaina Antenan explored five of her apps that every student will find useful.
SwiftKey Note (Available on iOS and Android devices)
Let’s face it, most of us can text faster than we write. Even if that isn’t the case for you, SwiftKey Note makes taking notes easier, more accurate and faster.
I know you’re used to the old way: Writing information down and forgetting it the next day. But SwiftKey Note lets you take notes on your phone.
Plus, you can highlight and organize your notes with ease and efficiency for your next class.
Litely (Available on iOS devices)
Whether you’re an aspiring photographer or you just want to edit your pictures, Litely brings out everyone’s inner artist. No one will have a bad side, thanks to this app.
Blur the bad and post the awesome!
MyScript Calculator (Available on iOS devices)
MyScript Calculator is what everyone have been waiting for! There’s that one equation you just can’t solve, so your left cursing at your book and your friendly professor. Well, it’s time to give your book and professor a break.
Just type that troublesome equation into this app, and there you go – results. It can’t solve all your problems, but it can solve a few.
BuzzFeed (Available on iOS and Android devices)
Sick of boring old news stories? Want to read about something that’s actually interesting? BuzzFeed gives you options. And as college students, we love options.
In this app, you can not only choose what you want to read about, but you can also play games. BuzzFeed also gives you a variety of quizzes, music, comics and more. It is a wonderful way to spend that hour waiting for your next class (after you study, of course).
Super Monkey Ball (Available on iOS and Android devices)
Let’s give it up to all those old-school video game lovers. Sega has finally made it to our smartphones.
Super Monkey Ball? Yes, please!
We all have at least 10 minutes of boredom in our days of grueling college work, right? Give this app a chance. Whether you’re a professional video gamer or an amateur at Flappy Bird, this app is guaranteed fun!
