you can check your bank balance from your bed
Preparing to go to University is a stressful time.
You may be a returning student or going to University for the first time.
Either way, there’s an abundance of apps this week to make studying easier.
DESIblitz selects three of the essential University apps for those looking to smooth out student life.
LectureNotes
There’s nothing worse than when you arrive at a lecture and realise you’ve forgotten a pen or notebook. LectureNotes eliminates the need for any of this.
This digital university notebook is currently available for Android phones and takes notes using the user’s handwriting. On one hand, the app is best used with a stylus, though a finger will do in a pinch.
LectureNotes is specifically designed for University use. Therefore it definitely comes in handy during lectures.
If you wish to export and backup notes, the app can do this too. This makes transferring notes between University and home much easier and compact.
The app is currently £3.29 on the app store, however, there is a free trial available for those wishing to try it out beforehand.
My Study Life
It’s safe to say that many students aren’t the most organised. And when it comes to juggling classes, lectures, revisions, coursework and exams, this is difficult at times.
My Study Life is the perfect planner for students. It allows users to track all University related tasks, manage classes and exams and receive notifications about upcoming classes.
Unlike a paper planner, My Study Life is available for use on most devices.
This makes it completely portable and easy to consult when you need to.
My Study Life will notify you about classes, upcoming exams or unfinished coursework that is due. This takes the stress out of having to consult and reread a paper planner in fear of forgetting something.
Mobile Banking
One of the most important things to keep on top of as a student is finance. No, it’s not the most exciting thing in the world. However, mobile banking helps immensely when you can check your bank balance from your bed or while finding true love.
Mobile banking helps with managing rent, bills, your balance and paying contacts a whole lot easier. There are better things to do with your time at university than queue in a bank.
Almost all banks now have some form of mobile banking, making choosing just one impossible.
Make sure to do your research in choosing what bank is right for you, then get the mobile app.
Mobile banking is one of the most used yet most forgotten about apps that make student life easier. Be sure to combine this with LectureNotes and My Study Life to have a seamless experience whilst studying.
