This app is pretty simple and already installed onto your computer. It's The News app. Not sure if you have checked it out but this app tells you just about anything that’s going on in this world. Whether it's Donald Trump yelling at Hillary about e-mails or Just random things that shouldn't be happening like Donald Trump Ice Cream If you want to catch up on a sports team, you can do just that. You can also view news from around the world. It's a great app to look at when you're bored, and I guarantee it's better than Fox or CNN. Please check it out. Just type news into your search bar in the start menu, and if it's not there, then just go to Bing and…I'm sorry you can't. The school blocked Bing. Now you can't view the news anywhere. Sucks to be you. Now you can't see the wedding party the Chittagong zoo threw for their lions. What a sad life you must live. Very interesting world we live in and it's good to keep up with currents events. So that when the next president takes office and starts doing things you can see what they're doing and how it messes your life up. And P.S. don't drill a hole into your iPhone 7, they do not have a hidden audio jack.

Final Thoughts: Socrative is a unique and very capable tool to improve any classroom, and features just the right level of usability to be a viable resource in the classroom every day. PROS:
Photomath is a brilliant, free app built to end your suffering over math problems for hours on end. Point your phone's camera at a math problem, and the app will both answer the problem and show you a step-by-step explanation. The only downside to this app is that it does not answer handwritten problems — only those appearing in a textbook. It also doesn't answer more advanced math problems, but fraction, linear, decimal and logarithm equations are fair game.
