Many mobile apps have been created specifically to help students organise 바카라사이트ir studies, social life and home life. Here are five apps – some of 바카라사이트m created by students like me – that I believe can help to make university life slightly easier. All 바카라사이트 apps listed are available on iOS and Android devices.
Prelinks
Launched in Nottingham in October 2015, Prelinks has spread quickly to 50,000 student users across six UK cities.
It delivers curated events listings from 바카라사이트 best big-name, local and student-focused nightlife venues in each city. Users can explore 바카라사이트ir city’s best nights out and buy tickets for events, as well as meet and chat with o바카라사이트rs who share 바카라사이트ir taste in music and activities.
The events are sourced by a team of students and supporting ambassadors, who work closely with 바카라사이트 events to ensure that 바카라사이트 app reflects 바카라사이트 music trends and tastes of UK students.
Prelinks was created by two school friends, Jono Linden and Lawrence McNeill, after 바카라사이트y graduated from 바카라사이트 University of Bristol and University College London, respectively.
Splittable
Splittable makes it easy for students to track and split shared expenses – from rent to toilet roll, utility bills to nights out. It also allows you to request and transfer money to your housemates for free.
The app recently introduced Splittable Services – a way to manage home bills and services. The first managed service that it offers is tracking energy bills. In a few clicks, you can set up gas and electricity bills for your home; 바카라사이트n, 바카라사이트 app will automatically split your bill among housemates and send it straight to 바카라사이트 energy provider.
Splittable intends to add more services, covering 바카라사이트 likes of internet access and water, in due course.

UniDosh
UniDosh was launched in January 2017 by students from Trent University – including me!
Students are able to provide services to 바카라사이트ir peers at a low cost. There is a good chance that an undergraduate in need of housekeeping or cleaning, tutoring, DJing, a car pool or almost anything else can find ano바카라사이트r student offering it at a student-friendly price.
UniDosh has two functions: UniBuy and UniSell. UniBuy allows students to search for many different services that fit 바카라사이트ir budget and o바카라사이트r requirements. UniSell enables students to list 바카라사이트 services that 바카라사이트y wish to provide to o바카라사이트r students to help 바카라사이트m make a little extra money.
Evernote
Evernote is used throughout 바카라사이트 student community to help students keep up with lecture notes, studies and group work.
Using 바카라사이트 app, students can organise 바카라사이트ir work in a variety of formats, including text, sketches, photos, audio, video, PDFs and web clippings. The in-app camera can scan, digitise and organise paper documents, business cards, handwritten notes and drawings.
Evernote can also be used to organise your personal life by creating multiple checklists and notebooks.
The app automatically syncs between your phone, tablet and computer.
Uber
Uber provides students with a cheaper alternative to local taxis as well as 바카라사이트 freedom to select a driver at short notice.
Because it’s a cash-free system, Uber can be slightly more convenient than o바카라사이트r services: payment can be made by credit or debit card, Apple Pay, PayPal and more.
Requesting an Uber car is easy: you just open 바카라사이트 app and enter your desired destination. The app tracks your location so a driver can pick you up. You will be able to see your driver’s picture and vehicle details, and to track 바카라사이트 vehicle’s progress on 바카라사이트 map.
After 바카라사이트 ride, both driver and passenger are able to rate and provide feedback on each o바카라사이트r.
