Apps you need
OneNote is a versatile, multi-user note-taking app that allows you to capture and organize all your ideas, images, recordings, and anything else you want to remember. With easy navigation and search functionality, it helps keep your notes organized and accessible wherever you go. Plus, its cloud-based storage and Microsoft 365 integration make collaboration a breeze.
IFTTT helps to create applications connections with a simple statement: if this then that. For example: "Tweet your Instagrams as native photos on Twitter". You define a task by a trigger and an action.
