So far, I have 60GB backed up to an email address I had from the school I went to before I transferred to the college I attend now. I have the Google Drive app installed on my Macbook pro, and it says I have 10TB (Terabytes) of space, which is massive unless you’re uploading hard drives of data. What’s interesting about Google Drive is that if your college uses Google Apps for Education, using your “.edu” email address, you get “unlimited” Drive space. If you’re uploading papers and presentations, that should be more than enough space (and this space is independent of the space used by Google Play Music, for those that don’t know). For the average user, it gives you 15GB of space. I’m not going to plague this article with a list of Google apps, but there’s a reason that it’s here. Note: The screenshot says 20,000 songs, they just haven’t update the app to note the new change 2. The iOS app is new, and may have a few chinks in it’s armor, but Google does a good job of patching holes. This is a perfect option for those that are avid iTunes users and have purchased or accumulated a collection of songs. That’s not a typo, you can literally upload 50,000 songs of your personal collection to Google Play, for free, using just your gmail account. Most blogs give the best “music” app slot to Spotify, but I’m going to bank on Google Play Music because of the fact that it offers not only a subscription-based service, but you can upload 50,000 of your own songs. Some may opt for heavy metal, others may prefer studying to Jazz. While it may not be your conventional “productivity” app, it falls under this category because working while listening to music is quite common among students. Without further ado, here are a list of cross-platform apps for the college student. I want to help the post-secondary readers with a good list of apps that will hopefully make your university endeavors more manageable. I realize that with the way I work, among other factors, I have to pick a more diverse, universally available set of apps to keep my busy college life on track. ![]() Now, I’m in my second semester, sophomore year and I’m back to an iPad and a ZTE ZMAX (soon to be LG G3). There was a good range of apps made using cross platform mobile app development frameworks, but I ultimately had to trade in my iPad for a Galaxy Note 10.1 because of the apps I was using they simply weren’t available on iOS. When I went to college in 2013, I had an LG Optimus G and an iPad (alongside my Macbook Pro, of course). While it’s a bit more time consuming for the company, it can be very beneficial for the consumers that make use of certain services on a range of devices. However, in 2015, that is no longer a feasible market strategy for any developer that wants the proper exposure, popularity and revenue. If you wanted to use Apple, you had to go all Apple, and the same applied for Android. There was a time when the Android and iOS catalogue essentially ran on two different planes.
