Valuable Apps
With almost everybody indulging in smart phones these days, good apps are hard to come by. Most of them are good but require one or more time purchases. Here we will focus on 5 valuable apps that are free and are essential to success as a student.
1. Dropbox – Dropbox is a cloud service that automatically syncs files and folders between multiple platforms (Computers, IPads, IPhones). This app includes a built-in reader so you can view PDFs, image files, and Microsoft office files. These are all things that are commonly used for school and it’s a great way to organize your storage of files.
2. PayPal – With many students having phones, but not owning a checkbook or carrying large amounts of cash with them, PayPal works great. PayPal is an application where you can send or receive money anywhere. It saves you a trip to the bank, and is a great way to make online purchases. PayPal is very secure and they have great protection, so this is a no-brainer.
3. WhatsApp – With most students having to take some classes that involve group projects, WhatsApp is great at connecting everyone. Just by simply adding peoples phone numbers, you can create a group with your fellow group partners and discuss details about your project. WhatsApp also allows you to send pictures and links to documents so everyone can stay up to date with project assignments.
4. LinkedIn – It’s not too early to start planning for the future, and LinkedIn is a great source to help you. After your done school, you would like to begin a new job involving expertise in your studied area. LinkedIn is like your online resume where you input your jobs and studies, and businesses that are looking for new employees will look through LinkedIn for potential candidates. You get the latest updates and messages from your network and keep them up-tp-date with your status in real-time.
5. Google Drive – Another simple cloud storage device that is free. With Google Drive, you can store videos, photos, and other documents. An added bonus is that it supports offline file viewing so you don’t have to waste data downloading photos when not in a Wi-Fi area. It’s also easy to share documents with others, as well as give people the option to edit documents in your Google Drive.
