As the kids head back to elementary, secondary and post-secondary, these back-to-school apps are sure to help offer a hand when it comes to starting the semester off on the most productive foot possible. The traditional route when it comes to remembering when an assignment is due or how much money you've spent is to write it on a Post-It, but now there are a number of effective tools for keeping track of everything easily on your smartphone.
This collection of back-to-school apps ranges from productive to personal with a number of options that will help to organize the student life while others are oriented towards keep the class-goer healthy; hydration reminders and even apps that analyze a selfie to see how stressed you are help to keep tabs on how you're doing mentally and physically.
