School life isn’t always easy to navigate, so anything that can make things easier for a student is welcome (unless it’s illegal, of course). Luckily, with the aid of technology, lots of students can access apps and products that help to make every aspect of a student’s life more comfortable and seamless.
Whether you’re trying to increase your productivity, train your mind, manage your time or stay organized, there’s an app for you. Check out a few of my top picks:

If your parents complain that you spend way too much time on your phone, they’ll undoubtedly be glad this app exists. Forest is a great app that aids your productivity by helping you put your phone aside so you can focus on more important things.

If you get distracted and leave the app, your tree dies. (That sounds weirdly interesting, right? It would be best if you gave it a try)
