StudyCount

Features
Read full description

StudyCount turns your study sessions into a competition. Start the timer when you sit down to study. Stop it when you're done. That's it โ€” every session you log gets added to the weekly leaderboard, where you compete against other students for the top spot. WEEKLY LEADERBOARD Every week resets. Everyone starts from zero. The more you study, the higher you climb โ€” Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, or Master. See where you rank against your friends and students worldwide. XP & LEVELS Earn XP for every minute you study, with bonus XP for keeping your streak going. Level up over time and unlock new avatars as you progress. The more consistent you are, the faster you grow. AVATARS Choose from 39 unique characters โ€” humans, animals, and more. Free avatars are available from the start. Level-locked avatars unlock as you progress. Premium avatars come with StudyCount Pro. STREAKS Study every day to build your streak. Get milestone celebrations at 7, 14, 30, 60, and 100 days. Miss a day and you start over โ€” so the pressure is real. FRIENDS Add friends to filter the leaderboard and compete within your own circle. See their profiles, their streaks, and their weekly badges. STUDYCOUNT PRO Unlock all 12 premium avatars with a simple subscription. No ads. No extra features hidden behind a paywall โ€” just cosmetics for people who want to support the app. No social feed. No distractions. Just your timer, your streak, and the leaderboard.
