About

Maestro

Features
Read full description

Maestro is your personal tutor. Tell it what you want to learn and why it matters — it builds a short course of lessons that take you there, one step at a time. No endless searching. No walls of text. You name the goal; Maestro researches, writes and orders the lessons, each grounded in real sources it cites for you. HOW IT WORKS • Name your goal — what to learn, why it matters, and how much time you have a day. • Get your path — an ordered set of short lessons that build toward it. • Learn it for good — read, practice, pass the quiz, and let spaced review bring it back at the right moment. A WHOLE TUTOR, NOT JUST AN ANSWER Every lesson is a complete teaching moment: • A clear explanation in plain language, with a worked example and a diagram when it helps. • Practice you actually do — flashcards, fill-in-the-blank, put-in-order. • A short quiz that locks it in, then spaced review at the right time. • Cited sources on every lesson, so you can read further. IT LEARNS YOU Maestro remembers your progress and your place, so the next lesson always meets you where you are. A glossary grows as you master ideas, and each lesson is pitched at the right difficulty. WHEREVER YOU LEARN Ask follow-up questions, export any lesson to PDF, and open Maestro from Siri, Shortcuts, Spotlight, a Home Screen widget and Apple Watch. MAESTRO PLUS Free to start. Maestro Plus gives you ten times more: • 100 lessons a month — 10× the free plan • Everything in the free app, just more of it It starts with one question: what do you want to learn? — Maestro Plus is an auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase and renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings.
