5 Apps for Working From the iPad

You are not able to do everything on an iPad as iPad has its own limitation like you can't make iOS apps on it. But you can do all most all real work on iPad with the right tools. Ipad device is the best option, if If your work requires generally office-like capabilities. 

Below are five tested apps for iPad, which helps you to get work done easier on iPad. The main feature of these tools is it’s not tied with any particular method of working.

Paper Free Apps

Paper app is just launched apps, but it blows away other drawing apps out there because of its clear interface and relative ease of use. It's still not the most natural thing in the world to draw on a touchscreen, but this app's brushes are careful and precise. The key to Paper is its natural gestures. You swipe up from the bottom to access your tray of tools, and you can swipe them out of the way for a full-screen, blank canvas to work on. Undoing mistakes is a hard problem for iPad drawing, But paper apps make its easier. It uses a two-finger "rewind" gesture to let you step back smoothly in your drawing.



Byword apps

Byword is a plain text editor and the most flexible way to write. Now you never have to worry about the other person’s Microsoft Word’s version or anything like that. As it syncs with Dropbox or iCloud, you can easily access your document on any devices. You can also download files from email. It has simple and attractive custom keyboards that allow you to move the cursor with arrows. In simple term it is a very helpful accumulation to the iPad's keyboard.


OmniFocus

With OmniFocus you can manage every single one of your life’s task in it. It is, in a very basic sense, a "to-do" app, but it's no meager checklist. You are able to organize your tasks by project and context, so you can maintain your work projects here without mixing them up. OmniFocus has a estimate view, so you can see all the tasks you have to do in future, as well as a review mode which allow you to check your own progress.




MindNode 

MindNode is away of saving a project compilation ideas in diagrams such as Tree-diagram. You have to start with a central idea and go further with drawing branches to ideas that follow. You can color-code them and shift them around as you work. It’s supports variety of export options. You can save it as MindNode mind map formats, as a text outline, as OPML data, as a PDF or as a PNG image. 

Trello free app

As it's not iPad-sized, it is last on the list, but it really works surprisingly on the iPad. Hope company will launch full-sized iPad version soon. Trello is collaboration software, which is completely free. It is as easy to use as a whiteboard and Post-It notes. Every member of the team gets a column, and that person's tasks are a mass of short notes. If you are working with a team, it is a best way to keep track record on who's doing what?
