Unlike most networking apps, Shapr uses an algorithm that considers your tagged interests and location to connect you with like-minded professionals who are in your area and looking to network. As with the Tinder or Grindr dating apps, Shapr allows you to swipe right anonymously. The app will notify you when the interest is mutual so that you don’t have to deal with random, unsolicited requests to talk or meet up. Another plus is that Shapr presents you with 10 to 15 different profiles each day; if you don’t feel like you can connect with the people it shows you one day, there will be a fresh crop of options the following day. The Shapr app is available for: iOSAndroid Forest The Forest app is a useful mobile app for people who are easily distracted by their phone when they should be studying, working, or doing something else. When you want to focus on something, you open the app and plant a virtual tree. If you close the app and use your phone for something else, the tree will die. If you stay off your phone for the designated amount of time, the tree will live and become part of a virtual forest. But it isnt just a virtual tree at stake. When you stay off your phone, you also earn credits. These credits can then be spent on real trees that are planted by a real tree planting organization that has teamed up with the makers of the Forest app. The Forest app is available for: iOSAndroid Mindfulness The Mindfulness app is a useful mobile app for MBA students who are feeling overwhelmed or stressed out over school obligations.
