PART ONE – IPHONE

part two here

So this is my first post that isn’t a stupid text post or overly bright photo of my stationary, so I hope you’ll like it! It will consist of two parts, one for the ios apps and one for google chrome extensions. Feel free to send me recommendations!

bolded = favourite, cursive = apps I use every day

Note taking and co

  • Pocket – very useful app to save websites, articles, posts etc and read them offline.           
  • Keynote, Pages, Numbers – basics if you have an apple device. I actually like keynote better than powerpoint c:
  • Notability – Very popular app and it really is worth its money. Great for note taking, especially in class!
  • Evernote – On my phone for over 4 years now. The group feature is so great and I use it for preparing posts
  • Werdsmith – very clean and minimalistic app for writing, I use it mainly for creative writing.
  • Microsoft One Note – Simple app for note taking and making online notebooks.

Languages

  • Leo – a great dictionary in 8 languages. If you log in you can save problem words and make vocabulary lists.
  • Memrise – My favourite app to learn languages for free. I’m learning Japanese with it!                                                              
  • Duolingo learning languages for free is always fun and duolingo is so easy to use, it’s even more fun! I use it to practice my Spanish.

Studying

  • Forest – Who doesn’t know and love forest yet? It’s such a cute application and I use it when I have a long study day/night ahead.
  • Brainscape – My to go app for flashcards. It has a giant library and it’s easy to make your own. Honestly, I’ve been using it for 3 years now and I still love it.
  • Mindly – A very beautiful app to make mind maps. I use it for story ideas and school work.
  • MindNode – also an easy way to make mind maps.
  • Uberchord – learn how to play the guitar for free c: 
  • TheSimpleClub – videos, and tutorials of all important school subjects, mainly in German, I think
  • Notenapp – keep track of your grades – German 
  • Khan Academy – like the simple club but with a broader spectrum and in English.
  • Tide – promodoro app with nice background sounds & inspirational quotes 
  • Swifty – learn how to code in a very fun and simple way! 
  • Flow timer – another great promodoro timer (they are everywhere). I like the minimalistic look and nice colours.
