Explained simply
iPad apps are small programmes designed for tasks such as writing, reading, planning and keeping track of things. The larger screen can make it easier to view information or work across different parts of an app than on a phone.
Some apps bring several kinds of everyday information together: Sofa keeps a list of books, films and television, while Bear is for notes and journalling. Flipboard gathers news by topic, and HappySpoon helps plan meals and shopping lists.
These tools may suit people who want to organise daily activities on a tablet, though their features and costs differ. Some are free to use, while others charge for optional features or subscriptions.
