When you are a student, you are always looking for good plans to make your life easier, to manage your time which is sometimes very reduced because of classes and revisions, the hassle of everyday life or simply to spend less. There are many mobile applications available to make your life easier, here are five of them that you will not be able to do without.
Google drive
You’ve probably heard of the Cloud before. Particularly trendy and very useful, the term Cloud is English which simply means cloud. This includes a bundle of remote storage solutions. In short, all your data is available to you on remote servers accessible via the Internet, and not on personal hard disks which very often become full in a short time.
As for Google drive, it is a free application, connected to Google, available on Android but also on computer, which saves what you want directly in the Cloud. Access is simple and secure and you won’t have to worry about a hard drive breaking down at the wrong time. You will never lose your files again, since they are available for life in this virtual cloud. You have the ability to create, edit, and even share documents to collaborate in real time.
Babbel
We no longer present applications for learning foreign languages. It can boast of advancing its users very quickly and very easily. Babbel is very regularly recommended for students because the app offers an effective program thanks to very useful innovative tools in order to progress. It is available directly from a smartphone or tablet, 24 hours a day. It is also possible to chat with native speakers to check your progress. In short, it is a perfect method to prepare for your exchange semester abroad, for example, or to converse with your fellow students of foreign nationalities on campus. You will no longer be afraid of discussions with the local populations and you will be able to live a fully enriching experience. In addition, mastering an additional language will allow you to stand out in the job market, to land an international position, to progress and to obtain promotions more easily.
Digg
Digg is a free application also available on Android and directly through its official website. With a single click, you will be able to access the many hot topics most shared on the internet and according to your areas of interest. Another advantage is that the information is in English, which will help you improve your knowledge of Shakespeare’s language (in addition to your great app which we told you about above). A nice discovery so as not to waste time on the web to find the latest interesting events.
Too Good to Go
We have entered an era of recycling and ecology, where we want to avoid any waste, for the good of the planet. Too Good To Go works with traders who do not want to throw away their unsold items but rather give them a last chance to be consumed. The application therefore proposes to geolocate sellers who have unsold foodstuffs, then to make them available to consumers at very low prices. Easy to use, all you have to do is download the tool to your smartphone, log into your account and then choose the food basket that suits you. The only condition will be to go there to pick it up because delivery is not offered. Victim of its own success, these baskets sometimes go out very quickly, because of their very advantageous costs which can help many students who are sometimes in precarious situations.
The Caf
Finally, in order to manage the assistance offered by the Family Allowance Fund, such as the APL for example, students can now download the application of CAF. From your smartphone or tablet, you can then easily access your beneficiary file, monitor the progress of your applications, modify your personal information, or even download certificates or statements in PDF. The administrative services have finally gone digital, and this is very good news!
