I recently found some Google Chrome extensions and phone applications that are incredibly useful for any college student. All of these apps are user-friendly and easy to use and set up. I enjoy them all and thought it would be helpful to share!
1. Honey

I just got this Google Chrome extension about a month ago and I absolutely love it. For all of you online shoppers, Honey uses an algorithm to search all coupons for a store when you checkout on that stores website. We all know college students are on a budget and I once saved $30 with Honey which was awesome! It's so asy to use and every time you purchase something online and apply honey coupon codes you get reward points! The best thing is it's right on the top of every google chrome page so it's easily accessible!
2. Tapingo
A lot of college campuses use Tapingo. It's an app to order food around and on campus. I love to use Tapingo when I don't want to wait in line at cafes at my school. It's really easy to use and what I like best about Tapingo is I can connect my student account card. My school has something called dining dollars which most cafes and food places around campus accept. If you haven't used this app yet I highly recommend it.
3. Exeq
https://exeq.com/
I found out about this app over the summer. It's a budgeting app where you can connect your bank account. It has visuals on how much you spend and even breaks it down into categories. Some of the categories the app has are: shopping, dining, groceries, and travel. It breaks down how much you spent that month in each category. I'm a very visual person so this app is great!
4. Grammarly
https://www.grammarly.com/
I have heard about Grammarly a while back but never used it. I recently heard about it again in my journalism class when my professor recommended it when writing our articles. You can easily upload Word documents to the website and it's also a Google Chrome extension. I will be using this often!
5. Shine Text

This is the cutest thing. You set up on their website or phone app and Shine will send you daily texts filled with positive messages to start your morning. You can even set the time that Shine will send you a text. Some of the texts I have gotten from Shine are "It's OK to say no to things in order to say yes to your future well being". One that I really liked was "The things you want to hear today? Say 'em loud. Even a good job, getting out of bed, Emma! can rewire your thoughts." I love the self love messages! It's a great way to start my day and I get the texts every day at 10:00am so I can see it right when I am up and about in the morning.
Happy downloading!
