The truth is that when we want to study, the ideal formula is to summarize the texts, make diagrams and distribute the agenda. However, the educational system does not give us the adequate tools to do it correctly, for which they would have to place more emphasis on study techniques. They simply give us an agenda that on many occasions we do not know how to address, and then we must show our knowledge in the exams. This is the most widespread way in the world, although it is not the most suitable to improve learning. Therefore, with these applications you can study in a simpler way.

What do these apps use to keep out important information?

It must be said that we do not have many options to summarize texts on our mobile, at least if we talk about applications. Be that as it may, the modus operandi of these tools varies in all cases, although their objective is to show the main ideas and from there develop the entire agenda. To do this, we can select the keywords of the texts, select the most important paragraphs and organize the ideas appropriately. Some even show us the parts that have been summarized or eliminated, as well as establish the extension that we want to make as the agenda. Of course, we should not completely trust their criteria, since there may be fragments that they do not consider important but that really are.

Text Summary – The easiest and most comfortable to use
