Studying hard is not the same as learning. Ankra turns your lectures into notes, shows you what you actually know, and drills only the gaps. Most students reread, highlight, and hope. Ankra replaces hope with a loop. CAPTURE: Your material becomes real notes Record a lecture and Ankra writes clean, structured notes while you listen. Drop in a PDF, an audio file, pasted text, or a YouTube link. Write and edit notes yourself in the web or Mac app. Everything stays in sync. EXPLAIN: See where you actually stand This is the part no other study app has. Explain a topic back in your own words, out loud or in writing, and Ankra grades it against your material: what you knew, what is shaky, and what you missed completely. It is the fastest honest answer to "am I ready for this exam?" DRILL: Your gaps become your flashcards What you missed turns into flashcards and quizzes automatically. Spaced repetition schedules every card for right before you would forget it, so reviews stay short and nothing slips away before exam day. SUBSCRIPTION & FREE TRIAL: A subscription is required to get started with Ankra. New subscribers can try it free for one month. Your subscription automatically renews unless canceled. If you cancel, your created material remains available to access and study, even after your trial or subscription ends.

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ScrollToStudy sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Ankra sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for ScrollToStudy against 4.7 for Ankra. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ScrollToStudy has 187 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 85% of ScrollToStudy's written reviews are positive against 100% of Ankra's.
ScrollToStudy ships an update every 8 days, Ankra every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 30, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
