HowToFormat is an informational app, keen to teach you all about the best ways to arrange a business presentation right down to the importance of where to put your data and how to format things correctly. For a business minded person, it's a handy way to learn the basics as well as benefit from some convenient templates.
Diving in is simple enough. HowToFormat is laid out in a clear and concise manner, tying into the iOS 8 aesthetic well. Advice is divided up by subject area. There's a tips and tricks section specifically for tables with a series of templates meaning you can enact such changes straight away. Presentations and charts are catered for in the same way with templates also available for great looking presentations.
Each tip is presented in a fairly bite-sized chunk, meaning you can quickly learn an important tip or two. Besides a small section of text, each tip also comes with images displaying how to present something correctly and how not to. It's a pretty good way of backing up the knowledge you'll have already gained from the text.
Templates can be opened and exported via iCloud, giving you an ideal starting place for presenting things correctly.
Of course templates and advice are freely available online, but the beauty of HowToFormat is that it's all easily accessible and viewable on your iPhone. It's like a quick reference guide to the basics without having to worry about google searches or always having an internet connection. You can never be too prepared for such scenarios, after all. Presentation is a huge part of selling your product, whether it's a physical product or simply an idea, and HowToFormat gives you an extra way of learning how to do that correctly.
