StudyBlue Application Review for Education


StudyBlue (SB) is an application that has the ability to vastly aid someone in the realm of education. The StudyBlue application main use is to act as a dropbox for flashcards. Meaning, you can either log on to the web browser to access the application through an e-mail username or access the application via a mobile device through the same e-mail. This application is primarily used for studying vocabulary terms by using virtual flashcards.


Now, of course, there is a free version of this application and paid version of this application. The paid version costs a little more than the average application and unfortunately you can only buy an annual subscription or a monthly subscription, there is not one single payment. The annual cost is 80 dollars whereas the monthly fee is 10 dollars. The paid version of this application allows you to set an unlimited amount of reminders that tell you when to study whereas the free version limits you to only 30 reminders/notifications a month. I have only had access to the free version and I personally do not have an issue and can still use this application to satisfy my educational needs. With this being said, the free version is still a workable version. In other words, you can use the free version and still have an enjoyable experience without being pressured into buying the application.

There can be an unlimited amount of files/flash cards in each folder and you can have as many folders as you want. This application is above all else because of this ability. All other applications have poor organizational options, unlike SB
