#study apps
Hello everyone, this is admin Sung. Today, I’m going to introduce you popular apps related to studying.
1. Qanda 콴다
Qanda is a five-second-long app. If you have a problem you don’t know while solving the problem, turn on the Qanda app and take a picture. At this time, there is no sound when filming. This is quite useful when you are at quiet reading room or library. Then, within five seconds, similar types of questions can be drawn up so you can think of those. You can ask directly using ‘question mark’ if they are still not solved. One out of 11,000 teachers from prestigious universities is matched to solve the problem, and answers to the problem are given within three minutes. Questions are available 24 hours a day, and all subjects are available in elementary, middle, and high schools.
This is centrally a math-solving app using AI. When you study math, there might be a mathematical problem or a partial question which requires some explanation from a teacher. However, if it is late at night, or for students who do not go to academy, students would have trouble studying math efficiently. For those who need a math teacher at any time, this app helps them to be able to get mathematical explanation.
1) Take a picture 2) Read explanation 3) Get similar type of question
2. Yeol-pum-ta 열품타
The name of this app is actually abbreviation of 열정 품은 타이머, which means ‘passionate timer’ in Korean. This is a timer that measures study time, which is also useful for group studies. It is a study timer app that allows students to join several groups and compare study time with group members in the group. If you study alone, you sometimes might want to give up or take a break. But you can continue studying because you are motivated with this.
The most important feature is the timer function. You can measure study time with this function. You can see how much you studied for a week or a month at a glance. 0-4 hours, 4 to 7 hours, 7 to 10 hours, and more than 10 hours are marked in color. After a day’s use, study planners for the day are automatically created to reduce time waste. If you join a study group, you can share your study time with the members of the group. Many people say that this function motivates them not to give up. There is also a way to turn on the camera and study with an unspecified number of people on the app for smoother concentration. It’s also a mobile-optimized function.

In this post, I list 7 of my all-time favorite apps / chrome extensions that I use daily. I hope I can help out some fellow uni students who are struggling. This might help make studying less painful and a tiny tiny bit more enjoyable.

the apps that helped me go through all sorts of shit in college
GOOGLE CALENDAR
God bless all the people on the Google Calendar team. User interface is friendly, easy, notifications arrive just when I need them. Without Google Calendar, I would be lost. You can read more about how I use Google Calendar for my studies and overall life here.
EVERNOTE
Evernote’s web clipper has saved my ass many times. I love how advanced the web clipper of Evernote is. I get to save all the links in their respective notebooks. Or if I’m in a hurry, I just use tags. If I didn’t do any of that, Evernote’s search engine is so crazy good, I just have to type some keywords in the search bar and J am guaranteed to find the webpage I save. The web clipper is a just, especially when researching. I just login to Evernote to find my sources and all I have to do is put them in the literature.
SCRIBBR
Talking about literature, Scribbr is also another website that has saved my life. Citing your sources is just so incredibly easy on Scribbr. All I have to do is copy-paste the link and Scribbr will automatically cite your source in APA or MBA. And it is also available in several languages. Saved me from all those last minute details so fast. Honestly, Scribbr should be more hyped among college students. It has seriously added so much value to my academic life.
GOOGLE DRIVE
Le Holy Grail of productivity: cloud storage. I love Google Drive because you get 15GB storage free, which let’s be honest that’s more than enough for most people. Everything goes into Google Drive. Literally everything. From the syllabus, to slides, handouts, class notes, essays. Everything. All categorized by year-semester-subject. I can easily search for whatever I’m looking for in a matter of seconds. And I can scan documents right from the app, allowing me to go paperless. Google Drive has helped me be so organized, I have become the reference point for both students and professor alike when something is needed.
