This study is based on the possession and use of Smartphone applications amongst students to better their learning and enhance a networked learning environment. Research shows that over the years there has been an increase in the number of students owning Smartphone, while mobile learning has been continuously introduced. The researcher’s first study was to differentiate Smart phones from other Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’S), where smart phones allows users to download educational applications and are able to run complex software with large amount of data storage and also connect to the internet anywhere at any time.

In addition, tutors would communicate student’s results on tests and assignments using audio applications allowing the tutors (teachers) to reduce their dependencies on computers which required internet access. However, the study reveals how students were unaware of the available technology that could be used for learning purposes. The researcher made use of methodologies such as survey and conducted interviews with students and it was revealed that students make use of various smart phone applications for learning such as drop-box, calculator, dictionary, notes, blackboard and other applications. Results also showed
