Text Summary helps you study, understand complex topics and remember key ideas. Turn books, documents, articles and photos into clear summaries, quizzes, flashcards and concept maps to support your learning. Whether you are working, researching, studying, or just trying to stay informed, Text Summary helps you cut through the noise and understand content in minutes instead of hours. You can summarize content from many different sources: • Books and written material • PDFs, DOCX, PPTX, EPUB, ODT, and TXT files • Web pages and long online articles • Photos and scanned documents • YouTube video links • Typed text or pasted text You can type directly in the app, paste text from anywhere, import files, open links, or simply take a photo of a page or printed text using your camera. Text Summary recognizes the content and turns it into structured summaries automatically. Text Summary is flexible by design. You decide how the information should be explained and how you want to work with it, depending on how much detail you need and what you plan to do next. Available summary and content formats include: • Extract summary • Highlighted key points • Bullet points • Abstract overview • Paraphrase • Rewrite • Keywords • Translation • Quiz • Flashcards • Concept map • My notes • Chat with your text or summary Quizzes and flashcards are automatically generated from your own text or summary, allowing you to quickly test your understanding and reinforce key ideas without rereading everything. With My notes, you can write, edit, and save your own notes directly inside the app. Use it to keep personal thoughts, add context, rewrite ideas in your own words, or store important takeaways for later. Your notes stay available so you can return to them anytime. The chat feature lets you interact directly with your content. You can ask questions about your text or summary, clarify specific sections, explore ideas, or dive deeper into topics without leaving the app. This allows you to actively work with information instead of passively reading it. Text Summary also includes a curated catalog of popular book summaries. These summaries are designed to help you understand key ideas, themes, and structure, making them useful before reading a book, after reading it, or when you want a clearer overview to decide what to explore next. How it works: Type or paste text, add a link, import files, or take photos of pages with your camera. Choose the summary format you want and get a clear, structured result in seconds. You can switch formats, refine outputs, save notes, or explore the content further using chat. Additional features: • Adjustable summary length • Text-to-speech with automatic language detection • Share summaries or export them as PDF • Multi-language support • Works with very long texts and large documents • Easy sharing from other apps directly into Text Summary Some advanced features, such as audio and video summarization, are available with an active subscription.

Snap a photo of whatever you are stuck on. AI Teacher explains it at your level, then turns it into practice questions so it actually sticks. AI Teacher reads textbook pages, worksheets, past papers, handwritten notes and screenshots with advanced OCR, then explains them at the difficulty you choose. It is not a shortcut for copying answers - it is built to make you understand. 1. Snap - photograph a textbook, worksheet, note or screenshot, or pick an image from your gallery 2. Understand - choose Simple, Standard or Detailed and read the explanation 3. Remember - answer the practice quiz, save it to your own study book and review it later WHAT YOU CAN DO - Explain from a photo - textbooks, worksheets, exercise books, handwritten notes, screenshots - Choose your difficulty - Simple, Standard or Detailed, from a short summary to university-level depth - A second angle - did not click the first time? The same topic explained a different way - Auto-generated quizzes - multiple choice or written answers, with instant feedback - Ask follow-ups - keep asking "but why?" until it makes sense - Your own study book - saved explanations become a PDF book with a table of contents you can reread and download - Review calendar - every "read" and "memorized" is logged, so you can see what to review and when - History and bookmarks - nothing you have asked is ever lost SUBJECTS Math, algebra, geometry, English, languages and translation, physics, chemistry, biology, earth science, history, geography, economics, essay writing and more. If you can photograph it, AI Teacher can explain it. WHO IT IS FOR - Students who got the right answer but still do not understand the method - Anyone who missed the chance to ask a teacher and has to sort it out at home - Parents helping with homework they have not studied in twenty years - Exam review - check the key points in minutes instead of rereading whole chapters - Adult learners going back to study, or working through a certification textbook WHY STUDENTS USE IT - An explanation alone is not enough - reading feels like learning, but it fades within days, so every explanation is followed by practice questions - Active learning - the loop between taking information in and putting it back out is what turns understanding into memory - Save hours - clear a doubt in seconds instead of searching - Your progress is recorded - reads and "memorized" counts add up, so nothing slips through the cracks FREE AND PREMIUM AI Teacher is free to use every day. When your free runs are gone you can watch a short ad for one more. Premium removes the limit and the ads, and adds High-Precision Mode, longer input (up to 1000 characters), three photos read at once, more follow-up questions and unlimited pages in your study books. Choose monthly or annual - annual saves the most. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS - AI Teacher Premium is available as a monthly or annual auto-renewing subscription. - Payment is charged to your account at confirmation of purchase. - Your subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. - You can manage or cancel your subscription in your account settings after purchase. Turn "I don't get it" into "I get it" - and then into "I remember it". Privacy Policy https://www.fjsh.dev/ai-teacher-policy-en Terms of Service https://www.fjsh.dev/ai-teacher-terms-of-service-en
