Practice tests and full mock exams made from your own notes, PDFs and photos. The questions you miss come back until exam day. CanQuiz writes the questions and grades what you answer in your own words. Make a quiz from what you study Paste or type your notes, take a photo of a page, pick photos from your library or attach a PDF. In Create, CanQuiz first tells you what it will make: about how many questions, what type and what level, and you can change it. Tap Generate and it writes the quiz. Save it, or start practicing right away. The AI comes with your account, up to a monthly limit. Create shows about how many more quizzes you can make this month. Want it your way? Ask for a type (one answer, several, true or false, written) and a level, up to 100 questions in one request, within your monthly limit. Take a mock exam A full mock exam follows your examβs rules: the time, how many questions and the pass mark. Hand it in and see your score and whether you pass, review every answer, then practice the ones you missed. You get one full mock per exam each week. Timed practice has a clock and shows the answers at the end, as often as you like. Your sources Keep the examβs PDFs and photos in its folder, up to 5 per folder. Open one to see its pages, pick the ones you want and make questions from them. Ask your sources a question and get an answer from your own pages, with the source and page it comes from, up to 20 questions a month. Answer it like the exam A question can have one correct answer, several, true or false, or a written answer. Check each answer as you go and read the explanation. The AI grades your written answers, and What did I miss? shows what you left out. You set how strict it is, from Lenient to Examiner. If you stop halfway, Continue takes you back to the same question, even on another device. At the end, practice only the ones you got wrong, or do another round. Practice what's due Questions in your practice come back when it's time to see them again (spaced repetition). Home shows what's due today, and you answer in the same player. Got one right by guessing? Tap I guessed and it comes back sooner. Due questions work offline too: your answers are saved on the phone and sync when you're back online. Exam dates and folders Put quizzes in a folder and give it an exam date. Its quizzes take that date, and due questions are spread out to reach it. Practice the folder in one mixed round, or choose what goes in: due questions, mistakes or new ones. Or start Timed practice: thereβs a clock, and you see the answers at the end. Notifications Turn on only the ones you want: a daily reminder when questions are due, at the time you usually practice; a notice 7 days and 1 day before an exam date; a practice round on the morning of the exam; and a note when a quiz you left generating is ready. Reminders and exam notices come at most twice a day, and never during your quiet hours. On the web Your account works on the web too, at app.canquiz.com. Quizzes you make or change there show up on your phone. On the web you can also build a quiz by hand or export your quizzes. I'm Michel from CanQuiz.
