Markup is the easiest way to annotate documents on the iPad.
Markup is a game-changer for teachers, who can now use their iPads to grade assignments, and not have to deal with stacks of papers on their desks.
And Markup isn't just for teachers to use as a essay, paper, or homework grader. Lawyers who review contracts, writers who edit manuscripts, contractors who mark up blueprints - virtually anyone can use Markup to "go paperless."
Markup's killer feature is Email Sync, which assigns each user a unique email address. Every document sent to this email address is automatically imported into the Markup app. This way, teachers can simply ask their students to send their assignments to the teacher's Sync email. No need to waste class time printing, collecting and handing out assignments.
When you find an interesting article, video or web page that you want to read, watch or view later, put it in Pocket. Once it’s in Pocket, it automatically syncs across to your phone, tablet and computer so you can view it anytime on any device, even without an internet connection.
