If the iPad are the most popular tablet on the market, it is largely thanks to the good catalog of applications that exists. In the App Store we can find all kinds of apps and counting them all would be practically impossible. However, we can say which are the most outstanding for their functionalities and the ones that users use the most. Therefore, if you have an iPad, we recommend reading this post, as we will tell you which are those essential applications that you should have already installed.
These apps should not be missing on your iPad
If you have an Apple Pencil , you should know that there are extremely interesting applications to make the most of its functionalities. GoodNotes 5 is an app to take notes by hand, ideal if you are a student and you still prefer the manual writing format, being able to have all your notes safe using the digital notebook iPad. And if you have a creative spirit, the most creative people who like to make free drawings with the stylus, Tayasui Sketeches is an extremely interesting drawing app that you should also have installed.
On the other hand, continuing with the more creative side, Pixelmator and LumaFusion are two great tools for editing photos and videos respectively. They are the most downloaded in their respective fields and offer very complete interfaces in terms of functionalities, although without giving up an intuitive style. There are two others that we consider essential to have installed on any iPad.
We also find Flipboard , which basically is a news feed to which you can add any digital newspaper to keep up with the news. It has automatic learning that, based on the use you make, will highlight the news in magazine format so that you can have at a glance the content that interests you the most and all from the same application. And best of all, it’s completely free.
Fantastical is one of the best calendar apps for iPad with which you can get to increase your productivity, being a much more complete manager than the native Apple and that is cross-platform, so you can also use it on iPhone and Mac. As a perfect complement to this we could add Microsoft To-Do , heir to the now legendary Wunderlist app and that will allow you to manage all your tasks in a list format with full synchronization between devices.
And if you want to make an office use of the iPad, also having accessories such as keyboards and / or mice, you are probably interested in knowing iWork. This is Apple’s office suite that has Pages, Numbers and Keynote as apps whose operation is similar to Office (Word, Excel and Powerpoint). They are completely free, they have many functionalities as complete as those of Office, they can be used on all computers on the block and on top of that they allow you to export to different formats (including those from Microsoft).
And obviously there are many more interesting applications that you can find. In fact, in La Manzana Bordida we usually publish articles with some assiduity in which we review lists of recommended apps for certain tasks, but these mentioned above are the ones that we consider basic and that can serve a greater range of public, especially for those who finish buying an iPad for the first time.
