About

StudyStreaks

Features
Read full description

A simple and powerful study planner, to motivate you to study, stay concentrated, prioritise wisely, and become a better student. StudyStreaks creates for you a dynamic study schedule. Rather than setting aside specific blocks of time throughout the week (which you couldn’t possibly stick to in the real world), you can study whenever you like, but the app makes sure you still reach your weekly goal by the end of the week. The app’s timer follows a 25 minute work, and 5 minute break cycle, because psychological research says that 25 minutes is about how long most people can concentrate, and 5 minutes is about how long most people need to reset their concentration. Features include: β€’ A streak tally, to motivate you to reach your weekly study goal, every week. β€’ Research-based timer, to keep your concentration. β€’ Simple, clear graphics, to see how far you are from your goal. β€’ A prioritisation tool, to split your study time optimally between your subjects. β€’ A graph of your study habits over time.
