Screen Restriction App

Forest

Forest helps students focus on their studies by building a virtual forest. Students can set how long they would like to work. For students to stay focused, they cannot leave the forest app. If they do, the tree they are growing will die. This limits distractions from social media, text, and more.

Organization App

Notion

Notion is a good software for organizing school years. There are many templates and tutorials on the internet to help students organize their workspace. Notion has many different features, including a calendar with all the assignments throughout the year. As well as writing detail-oriented notes for each class and uploading course syllabi to easily access teacher's information.

Scanner App

Genius Scan

Genius Scan is an app that allows people to scan physical documents. Many teachers have posted assignments that require uploading on the school platform (Canva, Blackboard, etc.). Using Genius Scan is an efficient tool for submitting these types of assignments.

Google Workspace Apps

Gmail, Google Docs, Slides, and Drive

All of these are great ways of accessing and organizing information pertaining to academics. Having Gmail is helpful because it gives students quick access to emailing school officials or teachers. Many schools use Google Docs and Slides; having these on your phone is great for easy edits. Or if a student needs to refer back to a specific presentation or document.

These apps are beneficial because they provide organization, discipline, more accessible information, and efficient work. If you haven't already, download the apps that you found helpful.
