## What is PaperFlow?

FUVEST, ENEM and UNICAMP in ink: Brazil's entrance exams, with the past papers solved inside the app. You write the answer as you would on test day, at your own pace or as a timed practice test.

What you miss goes into your error notebook on its own and comes back for review — no spreadsheet, no copying questions over.

Solving real papers and seeing your performance per topic is free. Plus adds each question's explanation, the AI schedule and sync across devices.

START WITH THE EXAM
Pick the exam and its date. Sign in with Apple, Google or e-mail in one tap, then answer three real questions in ink with the clock running. At the end, the summary: what you got right, what entered the error notebook and when it comes back.

TODAY: THE COUNTDOWN AND YOUR STREAK
One "Start" opens the day's session. The countdown to the exam, your question target and your Streak sit on the same screen. Two rest days every 30, milestones along the way and cards to share when you feel like it.

GOT IT WRONG? IT COMES BACK TOMORROW
The error notebook is a quiz: a question you missed comes back at growing intervals, and "Why did I miss it?" keeps the reason. Get it right three times and it leaves. Only your weak spots.

PAST PAPERS, LIKE ON THE DAY
The library keeps your place in every paper. Stop halfway, pick up where you left off. Build your own practice test from exams, subjects and topics — a whole topic or a single lesson. Performance per topic shows where you slip most.

THE SCHEDULE UP TO THE EXAM
Save the exam and the study plan is already there. With Plus, the AI orders the steps into a schedule that spreads reviews over your days, with an outline, cards and a quiz per step. Missed a day? It reshuffles itself.

AND THEN, THE NOTEBOOK
The same handwriting you used on the paper serves the rest of the subject. Select a handwritten passage and PaperFlow proposes cards and questions, with the answer and an explanation; you approve or discard each one. Circle a word, tap, and it becomes a link to another note. Wrote "prescription" in an October lecture? Type it and find it — search spans what you wrote by hand, typed and brought in as PDF, and your handwriting never turns into text unless you ask.

YOUR PDF JOINS THE NOTEBOOK
Import the handout, the syllabus, the paper. Write over it. Make cards and questions from a passage or the whole PDF; scanned pages are read too. Ask your notebook and the answer cites the page.

PEN AND PAPER YOUR WAY
The one that presses and thickens, the flex nib, the pencil that shades when you tilt, the fountain pen, the calligraphy pen, the highlighter. Ruled, grid, dotted and isometric paper. Covers you build. The stroke lands instantly and never pixelates when you zoom.

YOUR FILES, ON YOUR DEVICE
Everything stays as files on your device and works offline. The notebook is free forever. PaperFlow Plus has a 7-day free trial; cancel anytime in your store settings.

PAPERFLOW PLUS
Each question's explanation, the AI schedule, cards and quizzes generated from your handwriting and your PDFs, questions to your notebook, and sync across your devices with a cloud copy, with monthly limits published in the app. Monthly or annual subscription with a trial period, auto-renewed until you cancel in your device Settings. The price is shown in the app before you confirm.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.1 — 2026-09-27

Folders, links and Apple Pencil, fixed.

• Every notebook can be dragged into a folder, and one you create inside a folder stays there.
• Dropping an item on a folder that opened mid-drag always moves it.
• A link to a notebook you already had connects to it in the graph, and tapping it opens that notebook instead of making a new one.
• Apple Pencil: double-tap and squeeze follow iPadOS Settings, even when swapped. Palettes open the pen ring.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-09-26

Your links in view. Your studies on one page.

• The graph, rebuilt: it is drawn on your device, opens at once and works offline. Handwritten links show up and stay linked when you rename or move a note.
• Questions and practice tests the app creates no longer land in the graph on their own. They show when one of your notes links to them, or with the "Questions and practice tests" switch.
• Tap a dot to see a note's links; double-tap to open it. Search, depth, tags, color groups and forces live in Filters, and the graph remembers how you left it.
• Studies is now a dashboard: every destination opens as a full page, and each exam has its own, with practice, the schedule, past papers and topics.
• Add exam opens the catalog on its own screen and takes you straight to the exam's page.
• In the first steps, a tap only selects: Continue moves on and Back goes back.
• In the error notebook, a lucky guess neither counts as a right answer nor undoes the ones you had.
• A more reliable AI schedule: asking for another never erases the one you have, and the wait covers longer generations.
• A shaky connection no longer signs you out.

### 1.3.0 — 2026-09-22

Pick the exam. Answer in ink. What you miss comes back on its own.

• New first run: pick your exam and its date, then answer three real questions in ink with the clock running. What you miss goes straight to your error notebook and comes back tomorrow.
• Sign in with Apple or Google in one tap. E-mail still works.
• Today: the countdown to the exam, your daily question target and your Streak. Two rest days every 30 without breaking it, milestones along the way and cards to share.
• Exams: the past-paper library with your place saved. Stop halfway and pick up where you left off.
• The error notebook as a quiz: a question comes back at growing intervals and "Why did I miss it?" keeps the reason. Get it right three times and it leaves.
• Build your own practice test: pick the exams, the subjects and the topics, a whole topic or a single lesson.
• Add an exam: from the catalog, from your school, from scratch or from your own material. The study plan comes free when you save it; the AI schedule (Plus) spreads the steps over your days.
• PDF and AI: make cards and questions from a passage or the whole PDF, scanned pages included. Search gained a "By meaning" group.
• Found an error in a question? Report it right there.
• Reminders at the hour you choose, sounds for right and wrong answers (switchable off in Settings) and short hints on the new screens.
• Sturdier GoodNotes import, text boxes that rotate, a more precise lasso and sync that holds up on slow connections.
• Solving papers and seeing your performance per topic is free. Each question's explanation, the AI schedule and sync are PaperFlow Plus, with 7 days free.

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-10

Pick the exam. The notebook builds the path to it.

• AI study plan: pick the exam (the date of its next phase comes with it), mark what you already know and your pace. The AI orders the steps and the trail spreads them over your days, with spaced reviews. Missed a day? The plan reshuffles itself.
• Every step comes with a topic outline that cites the pages of your own notebook, cards straight into the deck and a quick quiz. Where the exam has published questions on the topic, five of them to solve in ink.
• School test? Pick the topics from 14 subjects. 16 entrance exams come with their phases, dates and subjects filled in, and weights per course where the exam has them.
• Study, one page: Today, Exams, Material and Progress. One "Start" for everything pending.
• Redesigned flashcard session: tap to reveal, "3 of 12" on screen, the card's source in view. Error notebook and decks show how many cards are due today and the day of the next one.
• PaperFlow Plus: 7 days free to try the plan and AI review. The notebook stays free.

### 1.1.0 — 2026-09-08
