PALO ALTO, CA — (Marketwire) — 08/22/11 — Heading to college is a great opportunity to explore new places and meet new people. Whether it-s your first time on your own or you-re a fifth-year senior, balance is the key to managing your finances, classes, relationships and everything else that college entails.
Pageonce picks these five smartphone apps that make the transition back to class a breeze:
1) — Access to the entire world of music on your smartphone. No need to download music or take up space on your hard drive. Hip-hop to workout, classical to study, and 80s to get your groove on, you-ll always have the perfect music in your pocket.
2) — Communicating with family, maintaining a long-distance relationship or keeping in touch with friends at other schools is a huge part of the college experience. Tango lets you make free video calling and phone calls over 3G, 4G or Wi-Fi, saving you airtime minutes and bringing you closer to the ones you love.
3) — Everyone knows the cost of college keeps growing, so taking care of your finances is more important than ever. Pageonce takes the tough out of managing all your money — checking and savings, credit cards, cell phone and cable bills, rent and more — so you can focus on what really matters. Pageonce simplifies daily finances, giving you control of your money and bills in one place and helping you avoid late and overdraft fees. Think of all the fun things you can do with the time and money you save.
4) — Poynt helps college students be locals — learn about your new surroundings by connecting you with local businesses, retailers and events while on the go. From learning about affordable restaurants and all-night diners to the best place to get a haircut, Poynt is the go-to, around-town app.
5) — Welcome to campus, and information overload! Every college student needs a way to capture and manage the constant flow of information and ideas. Evernote saves ideas, things you like, things you hear or see — anything you want — on any mobile device so you can access and share it anywhere, anytime.
