18 Expert Education Apps

From Educational Grocery Apps to Translating Beer Apps

— August 17, 2013 — Tech
The widespread use of smartphones has led developers to attempt to educate their audience with education apps. Since apps are so dynamic, they are the perfect medium for getting information across. Whether you're looking to learn a new language or internalize a book, there's an app for you. This list contains examples of apps that aim to educate users.

The mobile nature of apps has led to a glut of language apps being developed. Software like translating beer apps and scannable language learning aim to help users absorb new languages in an organic and natural way.

Other apps have aimed to help people learned by augmenting physical books with a digital dimension. Gratuitous ebook apps and other similar programs help users learn by adding digital functionality to an obsolete medium.
