A+ The Study Routine Built Around You Every student hears the same advice — active recall, focus timer, the Feynman technique. The problem was never knowing the methods. It's knowing which ones actually fit you, and sticking with them long enough to see results. A+ builds your personal study method from techniques that match how you learn, then helps you stay consistent with it every day — a routine, not just another app you download and forget. A+ requires an Aplus Pro subscription to use, with a 3-day free trial to get you started. Everything below is unlocked with your subscription. How it works: Tell A+ how you study best. It builds your method by combining proven techniques — focused sessions, active recall, blurting, and explaining concepts out loud. Upload your own notes, PDFs, or slides, and your AI tutor, Ako, turns them into exactly what your method needs. WHAT'S INCLUDED WITH APLUS PRO: Your Method — A personalized study system built around your preferences, not a one-size-fits-all plan everyone gets. Focus Sessions — A distraction-free timer that becomes the daily habit your whole routine is built on. Meet Ako — Explain a topic out loud to your AI tutor. If you miss something, Ako gently corrects you and shows you exactly where the gap is. AI-Generated Quizzes — Created instantly from your own materials, so you know exactly what you still don't understand before the real test. Weak-Spot Cheat Sheets — A personal summary that shrinks over time as you close your knowledge gaps. Less to revise, every time. Streaks & Progress — Stay consistent with small daily sessions that build real momentum and make studying a habit. A+ isn't about studying more — it's about studying the way that actually works for you, consistently enough that it becomes second nature. Download A+ and build the study method you'll actually stick to. Aplus Pro is an auto-renewable subscription, available as a Weekly or Monthly plan (with a 3-day free trial, if eligible). Pricing is shown in the app before you subscribe and varies by region. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.

You forget most of an audiobook by the next week. Recall fixes that. It's a focused player for the audiobooks you already own — built so the ideas don't slip away the moment the chapter ends. While you listen, tap once to HIGHLIGHT the moment that matters. Add a note in your own words. Later, open Highlights and every passage you marked is waiting in one place — the book distilled to the parts you actually wanted to keep. WHY RECALL • Tap-to-highlight, right from the player — capture an idea without breaking your stride. • Notes on any highlight — your thoughts, attached to the exact moment. • All your highlights in one screen — review a whole book in minutes. • Real chapter navigation — jump to any chapter in an M4B, see where you are. • Built to be reliable — long audiobooks and big libraries that don't crash, and your place is never lost. YOUR FILES, YOUR PRIVACY • Recall plays the DRM-free audiobooks YOU already own (M4B). Import from iCloud Drive or Files. • No accounts. No servers. No tracking. No analytics. • Your audiobooks, highlights, and notes stay on your device — nothing is ever uploaded. • Recall is a player. It does not host, sell, or stream any audiobook content. FREE, NO CATCH • Every feature is free — unlimited audiobooks, unlimited highlights, unlimited notes. • No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no accounts. • Nothing is paywalled — not playback, not highlights, not a single feature. Bring the audiobook you're listening to right now. Start keeping what matters.
