My study & organization apps as college student
First of all, is important to say that I’m 4th year Geography student and I use my cellphone (iPhone SE 2022) and a tablet (Samsung tab S7). Some apps are available just for one system, some are available for both. Biased that, some apps make sense for a GEOGRAPHY student, but may not be that helpful for other courses.
Notion
This one is a classic by now, right? I think I don’t have a lot to say about it, seems a little like a bullet journal but virtually, were you can creat a lot of pages and centrals. I use as a bullet journal + agenda + diary + note taking app!
Todomate
So, I discovered this app on Twitter and i’m IN LOVE with this! It’s like a social network, but where you can do to-do lists! As I said, it’s a social network, so you can add your friends and see their own to-do lists! You can also interact with them, liking their daily feelings and their tasks. It’s really fun and easy to use! You can also create private lists, routines etc. Love it! (That’s my count in the print, btw. You can add me there if you want to: HexGurlAcademia! My todo lists are all in portuguese? Yes, but…)
Windy
The must have to geoscience students! It’s an app that shows you a lot of geodata! Really good to check when there’s a storm coming or any climate event.
Noteshelf
Usually people use OneNote to do class notes, BUT it’s not available to android 🫠 but I founded this one! You can create groups, notebooks, transfer pdfs… I love to use this to read papers and texts for classes.
Samsung Notes
Another alternative to android users who wants to have a virtual notebook. You can also use the app in your PC!
Discord
So, did you know that there are a LOT of study communities on Discord? There are language learning communities, college servers (my university, for example, have one!), study buddies servers… I use to have study buddies and use pomodoro bots! There’s also a server I LOVE that has lo-fi rooms.
Classify
This one is a routine app! You can put not just your semester classes, but all your extracurricular activities! You can count study hours, add when your exams will be, homeworks… I really liked this one!
Habitica
Another routine app, but this one makes your tasks become a game! As more tasks you finish, you earn coins which you can exchange for things to up your character. You also earn xp to level up your character! I highly recommend it specially to teen/kid ADHD students! Trust me, it helps a lot transforming your life into a little game 😉
Yeolpumta (or YPT)
This one is a study chronometer! You can create your on profile, add friends, create and participate of study communities etc. I like this app, but may be discomfortable to people with anxiety, cuz you can see how many hours the others have been studying. If you study a lot of hours, your avatar changes and you go up in the groups and general rank. I stop using this so much cuz I was really anxious about it :/
Agenda Escolar
This one is a Brazilian app! Works very similar to Classify, but it’s a little simpler and 100% in brazilian portuguese.
Google stuff (Drive, Classroom etc)
Well, guess Skynet… I mean, Google, really dominate everything now… My college use Gmail to creat the institutional email for teachers and students, so EVERYTHING Google offers we use. Gmail, Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Meets, Classroom… Not that happy about it, but yeah, I have no scape anyway lol

Okay, genuinely ? Tumblr is the like best app/website literally ever. The way I'm constantly discovering new media and free resources on here is crazy. I mean just the other day i discovered the magnus archives podcast and I've been obsessed ever since. I deadass finished like a whole season in less than a week.
Not to mention the pdfs, articles, poetry, language learning resources, book recommendations AND TEXTBOOK LINKS ??!! ALL FOR FREE !!!

I hate dating apps.
I hate that some sort of “algorithm” will magically point me to the “one”.
The one who I seek.
The one who my heart desires.
The one with whom I’m willing to share my life.
My good days, my bad days.
Their good days and bad days.
Share our happiness. Share our pain. Go through struggles together, grow together.
Instead of me and you, become “us”.
For “us”, I’d go through that path of waiting, awkward conversations, rejections, ghosting, assumptions if this or that might be the one.
For “us”, I’d do that.
I hate dating apps, but I still use them for “us” to happen.
