1. 30/30
Make the phrase “there aren’t enough hours in a day” irrelevant with the 30/30 app. Set up a list of tasks, give each one a time limit, start the timer and knock them out one by one. 30/30 will alert you when it’s time to move onto the next one. Plus, 30/30’s bright colors and simple graphics make the whole experience a little more enjoyable.
2. Kitestring
Kitestring isn’t actually an app, but it is a useful, mobile phone-based safety service for those lonely, dark walks back to a car or apartment. It works similarly to Companion, but doesn't require a smart phone. Set up an emergency contact and text Kitestring a time limit while walking to a location. Kitestring will check up on you after the time limit has passed. If everything is fine, just text Kitestring back. If Kitestring doesn’t receive a response, it will alert the emergency contact.
3. 7 Minute Workout
Work off that Chick-fil-a without going to the gym. This app contains 12 30-second exercises with text and video descriptions and voice prompting for each step.
4. Evernote
Consolidate everything you need to remember in one space with Evernote. This app gives users the ability to take pictures of things like fliers and business cards, sketch, save web pages and take general notes and organize them with tags.
5. SpinMe Alarm Clock
This app provides a fun alternative to most alarm apps. SpinMe’s alarm clock can only be silenced if the user stands up, holds the phone and spins around three times.
6. Self Control
This app can block you from accessing certain websites when you’re supposed to be studying or paying attention in class. Just add certain sites to your blacklist, set a timer and let the concentration begin.
7. Mathway
Solve math problems anytime, anywhere with Mathway. Download the free program and receive instant answers to math problems. The app can solve everything from basic math to calculus and statistics. Step-by-step explanations, however, require a monthly $19.99 subscription plan.
