★★★★ Sphiwokuhle 6/11/2026 v16.14.0
the more updates, the worse it gets.
★★★★ Sali 5/17/2026 v16.9.0
this app has been ruined by AI like so many apps. even though I made my own flashcards (because I actually understand the content unlike the ai/app), it won't let me review and learn my own flashcards and KEEPS "generating questions" while putting the answer in the literal question. the downfall of this app should be studied. disappointing, sticking to real flashcards
★★★★ anghel1to 5/13/2026
The AI part of the app is annoying. It keeps changing or revising the answer I provided on my flashcards
★★★★ Teo Damian 5/8/2026 v16.7.1
The product is alright. The prices and policies however are not to kind to a student's pocket. I'm sure you can find similar products for cheaper elsewhere.
★★★★ Lukas Mickus 4/22/2026 v16.6.1
App keeps giving popups saying that its not responding when it clearly is, and every time i press wait i get that same window popping up every 5 seconds. please fix this nonsense
★★★★ Louren Garingarao 3/12/2026
In the past years, it was free, and now you need to pay a premium to create 3 or more study sets. Kinda sad. Need to find an alternative app for my study
★★★★ Brey 4433 3/1/2026 v15.13.1
scamm app didn't refund
★★★★ Neo Koalie 2/19/2026
The worst app😡 😡 🤬 ever after paying so much for the whole year it just started giving me wrong analysis when I try to take a picture it just assumes that I want to create flash cards it even assumes the wrong subjects for the flashcard and the developers aren't responding me so I suggest you to not pay the subscription because you'll regret it 😭 😭
★★★★ A Google user 2/17/2026
Its not a bad app is just the app rejects evry time you try to a subject it also has a word texting limit it want yo to sign up even when you dont want to
★★★★ Reha 2/15/2026
worst app full of subsrciptions
★★★★ Carlton 2/12/2026 v15.9.0
Cancelled trail and they charge me the full 77 quid anyways, not worth it at all operates as a scam locking you in for one year min
★★★★ John Imen 2/8/2026
a total waste of time repeated the login process 5 times and ended up back at the login page 😒
★★★★ Sarah Badejoko 1/31/2026 v15.7.1
Study smarter app I mistakenly used the subscribe button refund my 14,000 naira Please I'm begging you guys
★★★★★ Nicole Southgate 6/5/2026
This app is good to a certain extent as in it's better to upload notes than use the ai provided by the app to make flashcards.....If you do use the ai it will only give you 10 relevant good flashcards and then just repeat that same 10 questions in lots of different ways which will have you relearning the same 10 things over and over without learning any other information...which is frankly a bit annoying as you will have to keep creating new flashcards to learn more information you might need.
★★★★★ Enhle Mashinini 6/2/2026 v16.13.0
The app is okay i guess but only 10 messages to get help with homework ?? Just no ...
★★★★★ Elisabeth Thato 5/13/2026 v16.8.0
your app after every 5min of opening it while I'm having my fun it says the app it's not responding, it's annoying. And again if I open another apps and let it run in the background when I come back to it, it gives me wrong answers. I love your app but it needs a little bit of modification there and there
★★★★★ Samuel Nkurunziza 5/11/2026
This app does not let you upload photos.😡
★★★★★ Nikita 4/30/2026 v16.7.1
Used to love this app but still having issues uploading PDF's over a year later. I don't know how many times I have emailed the developers about this and the issue is still there. So frustrating that I couldn't use it fully when I paid for it 😒
★★★★★ Gabriela Castillo 4/17/2026 v16.6.0
I've had this app for a while came back to it and all of a sudden things that were free that put it above other apps were suddenly behind a paywall now it's just another app
★★★★★ Tavo Mano 2/27/2026
This app used to be very useful for me, especially the 'test' option. However, with the promotion of the AI assistant feature (which cannot be turned off), this app has become a huge hassle for me. The test option for generating 'short answers' had vanished, and now the AI algorithm is making every question from scratch, creating and formulating new questions. This feature has not been of help, but frustrating, especially because the AI talks nonsense all the time when generating content.
★★★★★ Eric Demel 1/31/2026
looks good but doesn't work well. lots of unnecessary fluff and way too expensive for what it is
