Every subject in one place. Unibud keeps your coursework the way you actually think about it — one folder per subject, with the deadlines, tasks and notes for that subject inside it. Then it does the part you forget: it asks. Once a day, at a time you choose, Unibud checks in so an assignment set three weeks ago does not become tomorrow's problem. SUBJECTS AS FOLDERS Add the subjects you are taking this term. Everything else — documents, tasks, deadlines — lives in the folder it belongs to, not in one endless list. DEADLINES YOU CAN SEE COMING Add assignments, quizzes and exams with the date they are due. Unibud sorts them by what comes first, flags anything overdue, and reminds you a set number of hours ahead. YOUR WEEK, CLASS BY CLASS Put your timetable in once. Class times sit beside everything else you owe, so your week is one picture instead of three apps. TASKS THAT KNOW THEIR SUBJECT Add a task to a subject and it shows up both places: on the subject and in one combined list when you want to see the lot. A DAILY CHECK-IN One notification a day, at a time you set. Answer it in a few seconds and nothing gets remembered at the last minute. YOUR FILES, FILED Attach lecture notes and slides to the subject they belong to, and keep a list of the chapters you are revising against each one. NO ACCOUNT. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE. There is no sign-up, because there is nothing to sign up to. Unibud stores everything in a database on your device. No cloud, no servers, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. Nothing is uploaded, because there is nowhere to upload it to. It works with the plane mode on. Built for students who want their term organised, not gamified.

FocusLeaf is the study timer that makes studying a team sport. Time every session, keep your streak alive, and see how your hours stack up against your friends. START THE CLOCK Pick a subject and hit play. Pause when you step away, finish when you're done. Your time is counted from real timestamps, so it stays accurate even if you close the app. KEEP YOUR STREAK Every day you study counts. Watch your streak grow, and see your whole month on a calendar with the hours for each day. SEE WHERE YOUR TIME GOES Totals for today, this month and this year, broken down by subject. Tap any day on the calendar to see exactly how it was spent. STUDY WITH FRIENDS Make a group for your class or friends and share the code. See everyone's hours for the day and the week, who's studying right now, and who's on top of the weekly leaderboard. Leaderboards reset every Monday, so everyone gets a fresh shot. Turn on study notifications and FocusLeaf tells you the moment someone in your group starts studying. Nothing motivates you to lock in like seeing your friends already at it. Want a bigger crowd? Join a public group from Discover and study alongside other students. MAKE IT YOURS Choose your subjects, icons and colours, pick an avatar, and set a nickname for each group. EARN ACHIEVEMENTS 55 achievements for the milestones worth celebrating, from your first session to your hundredth day. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. FocusLeaf has no ads and no tracking, and nothing about you is sold. Your study history is saved to your account, so it's all still there when you sign in on another phone. Built for high school and uni students getting through exams, assignments and everything in between.
