Read it, then remember it. qLog turns your reading list into a queue you actually finish. Save an article, read it, and a short quiz and summary help the ideas stick, all generated privately on your iPhone. ONE ARTICLE AT A TIME • Save from Safari or any app with the Share Sheet, or paste a link • Your queue shows just the current article, so there's always one clear next read • Not the right moment? Punt it to the back of the queue RECALL WHAT YOU READ • Tap Done and qLog prepares a three-question quiz and a three-point summary in the background • Answer from memory first, then see the takeaways • Add a note in your own words • Skip a quiz when you want, or retake one later with shuffled answers YOUR LIBRARY Everything you finish is saved with its summary, quiz results, and notes. Search it all to find that idea you read months ago. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Quizzes and summaries are created on your iPhone with Apple Intelligence. No account, no analytics, no tracking, and your library stays on your device. Quizzes and summaries require an iPhone that supports Apple Intelligence. On other iPhones, qLog works as a focused reading queue and library with notes.
