This list of back to school apps for students is totally amazing. The g-Flash and Flashcards & Tests sounds like an awesome app for sure. Thanks for sharing.
This is so helpful never thought apps like this existed great info!
This is a good selection of apps for those who have kids! I really like the one that educates kids about bullying. It really is a problem.
I had no idea all these apps were available for students. There seems to be an app for absolutely everything these days! Thanks for sharing the list.
Wow! I had no idea that there were so many school related apps! Thanks for sharing these with us!
I like the my grades and homework app. That’s a cool one when the kids say they want more electronics time. :)
I honestly never heard of half of these Apps but it is good to know there are Apps out there that are more or educational purpose than otherwise. Cool list
What an interesting list. My oldest is out of high school now, I don’t recall hearing about any of these. The schools in our area discourage cell phone use during the school day.
Omg a list of apps that I’ve seriously never heard of a single one lol… I’m an app junkie so I will have to check some of these out!
Never thought that there are apps like these. I love it! This is indeed very helpful for students and parents! I’m checking each one out.
Wow – that’s a really great list. I can’t imagine how different school would have been with apps like this.
I had no idea there were so many helpful apps for students and their parents. This is an awesome resource!
Great list! I homeschool my son, and these will definitely come in handy for the coming school year!
An app to help kids organize their school work and grades! Whoever thought of that is a genius!
This is a good list of resources. Our oldest is starting a much more rigorous academic schedule this fall, so we can use some help staying on top of due dates. Eliminating Sunday night panic (oh my god, it’s due tomorrow! why didn’t you tell me tomorrow is October!?) would be a-mazing!
Some of these do sound like they would help keep students organized and not let them forget important assignments until the last second! Back when (in the dark ages) I used to do that all the time!
There seems to be an app for everything these days! I will be sure to send this post to friends! I don’t have the internet on my phone to check them out!
These are some great apps for students. Back when I was in college (it seems so long ago even though it was only a little under 2 years ago,) I would use iHomework and I really loved it!
