Poncho
Read full descriptionHide full description
Poncho turns the minutes you were about to lose scrolling into a review of your own notes. It blocks your distracting apps and shows you a flashcard instead. You study at the exact moment you were about to procrastinate. Snap a photo of your notes or type a topic, and AI builds your flashcards in seconds. BLOCK WHAT STEALS YOUR TIME You pick which apps to block: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, whichever you want. When you open one, a study card appears instead of the app. Review one point, and only then it unlocks. YOUR NOTES, NOT GENERIC CONTENT Take up to 60 photos of handwritten or printed notes. Poncho reads the text on its own and builds the cards. Don't have your notes with you? Type the topic and you're set. 4 HOURS OF SCREEN TIME = 120 REVIEWS That's how long the average person spends on their phone on an ordinary day. Poncho turns it into spaced repetition β without you ever sitting down to study. IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE STUDYING No hour-long sessions, no lectures. It's ten seconds each time you were about to open a social app. By the end of the day you've reviewed more than you would have in a library β by accident. BUILT FOR REAL STUDENTS β College students with midterms and finals coming β High schoolers with subjects that won't stick β Anyone who wants to cut screen time without the guilt FREE AND PREMIUM Free: 2 photo summaries and 2 text summaries every day. Premium: unlimited summaries, up to 100 flashcards per summary, and full control over blocking time. Invite friends from your profile and earn free premium: they get 3 days, you get a week for every friend. Download it free and try your first summary now. Premium renews automatically.
