RefMe by Bekii


Name of App: RefMe

Cost: Free
Device/s used: iPhone
Available on: Apple, Android and Online



What was good about this tool? 
It helps you to reference your sources, including textbooks and websites which is useful in college projects and essays. It also shows you how to Harvard reference which is often a new skill to most students. You can also put all your citations into a project folder to keep everything organised. It has helped me to understand what needs to be included in a reference and how it is presented.
What was bad about this tool? 
It was difficult to transfer the information from your phone to your laptop which could cause a problem when writing your final project as you will have to enter the reference manually. Also some of the new textbooks were not on the app so they would need to also be added manually.
How did you use this tool? 
I used this tool to cite textbook and website references for my psychology project.
Would you recommend this tool? 
I would recommend this app to any student especially those taking essay based subjects.
