Here we go!
Kindle
The Kindle app allows you to read books on your computer or tablet. It’s a great way to save money by reading textbooks instead of buying them.
You can also download free e-books from Amazon directly into your device. Using a Mac, you can use Calibre to transfer your digital library over to your Kindle.
Google Drive & Dropbox
If you’re looking for a cloud storage solution, Google Drive is a good choice. The service provides 25GB of space for free. Plus, if you pay $5 per month, it offers 50GB of space. Dropbox is similar to Google Drive in terms of functionality. However, it’s less well known, so many people don’t know about it.
Evernote for Android
Evernote is a great app for students because it helps them organize their notes, ideas, and thoughts. They can add photos, videos, links, webpages, audio recordings, documents, etc.
Evernote is great for brainstorming, note-taking, and organizing information. It even lets you create checklists, which can be very helpful when studying for exams.
Microsoft Office Suite
You might think that Microsoft Word is enough for most students. However, several other programs are included in the suite that aren’t often used. For example, PowerPoint lets you create presentations, and Excel lets you do spreadsheets, and OneNote can help keep track of your class schedule, assignments, study habits, and more.
Dropbox
This one isn’t exactly a Windows app, but we thought it was worth mentioning. Dropbox makes it easy to backup files on multiple devices.
When you upload something to your account, it automatically saves copies to your computers, phones, tablets, and servers. This means that even if you lose your phone, you won’t lose any work.
Microsoft Excel
Excel is one of the most popular programs around. Whether you need to create a spreadsheet to plan out a project or want to get a little bit of extra practice before an exam, the program will come in handy.
Google Chrome
Chrome is a browser that supports all kinds of websites, including those that require flash. Today, many sites offer a “lite” version that doesn’t support flash or requires users to install it themselves.
Chrome includes its own built-in Flash player. So you can browse without worrying about missing anything.
Jupyter Notebook
Many universities now offer courses where students submit their homework through Jupyter notebooks. These are a collection of code cells that let you write Python scripts inside the notebook itself. They provide step-by-step instructions and explanations that make learning to solve problems easier.
Pandoc
Pandoc converts between different document formats. It can read PDFs and convert them into ePubs, Epub3s, HTML5, RTF, plain text, LaTeX source, Markdown, DocBook XML, and many others. Pandoc also has a command-line tool so you can quickly convert documents by hand.
iMovie
Apple’s iMovie is a video editor. It allows you to trim clips together, add music, create titles, and more. In addition to editing videos, iMovie also lets you record screencasts.
And it even offers basic effects — such as adding special filters to images — that can help improve the look of your final video. This is a great app for students because they can use it to trim videos, especially those related to their online courses.
Grammarly
Grammarly is the best Grammar checker app for Android and iOS. You can use it to check any text you want, whether it’s a document or an email. It gives you the most accurate grammar, spelling mistakes, punctuation mistakes, etc.
You can also use it to correct your writing style. This app works on all the major mobile platforms, including Android, iPhone, iPad, and Windows phones. You can use the free version either online or offline. If you wish to avail of premium services, the price starts from $4.99 per month.
You don’t have to struggle with grammatical errors anymore. When you add grammarly to your browser, it helps you even send grammatically correct emails and other assignments.
Asana
Asana is a task management app that has many benefits. Instead of having multiple folders for each project, you can organize everything under one umbrella called ‘Project.’ By default, projects start privately. Still, you can share them with other people. The tasks within the project will be listed in chronological order.
Final Word
These apps are very useful for students who need to do some work outside the classroom. They give you the freedom to study remotely without sacrificing productivity. All these programs come preinstalled on smartphones today. So, get downloading!
