App Review: myHomework
Price: Free
Developed By:Rodrigo Neri
Developers Site:www.rigoneri.com
myHomework is a simple and easy to use iPhone/iPod Touch application that allows you to keep track of your homework, classes, projects, and tests while interacting with a really cool user interface. I am going to go in-depth of this application. It is free so why not test it out? Especially if your a High School or College student this app is a must for you.
Review:
OK so when you first open up the app you get a notepad background with credits to the developer of the application. Right after it finishes loading the page peels to the top left corner and your on your main myHomework page by default which is the Homework List. There are 3 total sticky tabs on the bottom of the notepad that consist of:
- Homework List(Yellow Sticky)
- Classes(Green Sticky)
- Settings(Blue Sticky)
On the top right of the notepad of both the Homework list and classes pages consists of a "Add +" button. Tap it and then another paper graphic and a paper clip. Now this is your form to add new homework/classes. The forms for the New Homework submissions gives you these form items:
- *Title- Which is obviously needed in order to add it to your notepad.
- Class- To attach a class name that the homework originates from.
- Type- Is it a project, test or just homework?
- *Due Date- Again needed to submit. Lets you know when its due.
- Notes- Very useful if your teacher/professor gives certain instructions for assignment.
Once your finished filling in your assignment you then go ahead and tap the green Confirm button or if you decided for some reason to not add it then go ahead and tap the Cancel button. Pretty straight forward and very easy to do.
Overall Thoughts:
This is by far the best application that I have come across under the Education category in the app store. The design is amazing and fits well into the concept of the application itself. It acts as a to-do list but for people who are in school/college. Overall this is a great application and recommended getting it since its free, and if your in school/college. This app gets a 9/10 for the fact that there could have been more things implemented to this app to make it better. The app is very small and there isn't much too it which some might say makes it better. An idea that was floating around in my head while messing around with this app was that it could use a Category option to where you could sort all of homework, projects, tests etc.
