The best management apps for students

I can attest to the need of having a good time manager for keeping track of all my daily tasks, and I know first hand how useful an app like the ones we will feature here can be. They allow you to not worry if an exam or paper is approaching and by setting your calendar and schedule, you have nothing to fear (at least, you won’t forget about them, you will still have a lot on your plate by doing them).

5. Pocket Informant-Events,Tasks

Offering some of the best features of all the management apps we’ve seen until now, this app has all it takes to take the spot of the best one, but for all its features and tools, it has one major drawback: it’s much more expensive than the others featured in this top, going for $10, and users that want multi-platform sync, there is an extra tax they have to pay for the PC version.
If price is not the issue, then this app is the very best in Android management, offering users a host of features that will allow them to keep a detailed schedule for all their tasks. The app allows access to almost all areas of the smartphone, including calendar, contacts, email and much more.

The app’s integration with so many services give it an almost operating system feel, and by using it, some users could do just about any task from the app, without having to use other apps.
