5 iPad Apps Every Student Needs to Improve Learning and Studying

One of the best advantages of digital civilization is convenience. It has changed our way of life so much that technology and technological devices, like the iPad, have now become cornerstones to supplement learning.

 

But did you know that you can still make your studies easier?

 

The latest iPad models just dropped, boasting powerful features and amplified performance. The new iPad Pro M4 and iPad Air M2 are two of the best devices to aid your studies and develop your talents. Coupled with equally powerful apps, your iPad is an exceptional support in improving your brain power and achieving your academic goals.

 

iPad Apps for Learning and Studying

 

Unleash the potential of your iPad for learning! Here are 5 must-have apps to transform your note-taking and study sessions:

 

Photomath

 

Picture this: you're in the middle of a Math exam. You diligently solved a problem and confidently looked for your answer in the multiple choice—and it wasn't there. Familiar? 

 

How about this: Two of your most intelligent classmates started arguing over a minuscule difference in their answers to an equation. You're somehow caught in the middle, wondering why you have decimals in your answer, and it's suspiciously ten times bigger than theirs!

 

To an average student, these are probably common scenarios. Math can be challenging, even more so for those who do not naturally possess the aptitude for the most advanced problems. Thankfully, there's Photomath, an iPad learning app. It simplifies math problems through step-by-step explanations. It teaches you several methods to solve your exact problem.

 

  • Offers Photo Recognition that recognizes a handwritten or printed math problem and shows how to solve it
  • Provides detailed steps and interactive instructions, graphs, and graphical solutions
  • Covers comprehensive math topics
  • Ability to track your progress and focus on your weak areas

 

Goodnotes

 

 

Goodnotes is like your digital paper. You can write on it freely with your Apple Pencil (1st Gen) or Apple Pencil (2nd Gen), depending on your iPad model, and combine elements like lists, diagrams, and equations, offering the flexibility of a physical paper. Yet, it has features that allow for more advanced editing and note-taking:

 

  • Lets you create notebooks, organize them, and search your handwriting
  • Completes words in your handwriting and provides correct spelling for typos with the help of AI
  • Allows for PDF annotating and editing
  • Records audio alongside notes
  • Creates flashcards from your notes
  • Offers AI-assisted study sessions

 

Notion

 

 

 

If you're getting buried with so many tasks, thoughts, and schedules, Notion is the best free app for you. It's an efficient app for organizing, note-taking, scheduling, and project management. Plus, you get to do them just the way you imagined!

 

  • Create a creative dashboard for your studies, budget, side hustles, and more with the many templates and inspirations online
  • Organize your calendar
  • Keep track of your progress and deadlines on assignments and projects
  • Take down notes and keep journals
  • Bookmark your reading list

 

Concepts

 

 

Your ideas, plans, and imagination will know no limits with Concepts. It offers an unlimited workspace for brainstorming sessions, team collaborations, and endless diagrams. Additionally, it's perfect for design students, artists, and even creative professionals needing an infinite canvas to draw, design, and edit.

 

  • Drag and drop capability for objects and importing files such as images and PDFs
  • Automatic Presentation Mode for sketching live with collaborators
  • Editable vectors, realistic pencils, and customizable brushes
  • Unlimited layers for iterations
  • Real-time collaboration

 

Quizlet

 

 

Mastering your subjects and passing your exams with flying colors is possible with Quizlet. It's an AI-enhanced learning tool that transforms your notes into flashcards, outlines, and study guides. With this, you can choose from millions of user-generated sets to test your knowledge. It also presents information in fun and interactive games to make familiarization with concepts and memorization easy.

 

  • AI-Tutor and AI-enhanced features that transform notes into flashcards and practice tests
  • Customizable study mode options
  • Expert-written solutions for challenging assignments

 

Bonus App:

 

One Sec

 

 

It's easy to get lost trying to stay on top of school stuff and maintain a social life, physically and virtually. To find the balance between productivity and leisure, you need One Sec

 

One Sec is an app designed to intervene with your opening of an app and scrolling within it. Its goal is to reduce your frequency of visiting apps and eliminate the habit of mindlessly scrolling and wasting time on them. 

 

It forces you to an "intentional pause" when you open apps that it might deem distracting. The pause guides you to a brief breathing exercise. It allows you to reflect on whether you want to proceed with opening Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and others or decide that it can only be counterproductive at that moment.
