A page of messy notes goes in.
A deck you'd actually study comes out.
How it works
Three steps. One sitting.
- 01
Scan or import
Open the camera on a notebook page, pick a PDF, or paste text. QuickStudy cleans up the OCR output — stray characters, broken lines, odd spacing — before anything is generated.
- 02
Keep what's worth studying
Cards are drafted on your device and land in a review list. Toggle each one on or off. Nothing is saved to a deck until you say so.
- 03
Practice, then quiz
Flip through your deck one card at a time, then switch to a multiple-choice quiz built from the same cards. Wrong answers come back around until you get them.
Features
Everything between a messy page and a clean deck.
The AI speeds things up. You stay in control of what ends up in the deck.
Import PDFs or paste notes
Lecture slides, textbook chapters, or a block of text from Notes. Anything with words in it can become cards.
Generated on your device
Apple Foundation Models turn cleaned-up text into question-and-answer cards. Your notes are never uploaded.
You approve every card
Drafts land in a review list. Keep the good ones, drop the filler, and only what you approve goes into the deck.
Practice with a swipe
A focused loop: read the question, tap to reveal, swipe to move on. No distractions.
Quizzes built from your deck
Multiple-choice questions generated from the cards you kept, with wrong answers drawn from your own deck so they're not obvious. Missed questions circle back at the end.

The architecture.
QuickStudy has no server. There's nothing to sign into, nothing to sync, and nothing for anyone else to read.
Read the privacy policy- No accounts. No sign-up, no login, no profile.
- No analytics, ads, or tracking SDKs. Zero third-party frameworks in the app.
- Camera and files only when you tap. Permissions are requested at the moment you use them, and images are processed on-device.
- Cloud generation is opt-in and yours. Bring your own API key; text goes only to the provider you chose.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
What do I need to run QuickStudy?
iOS 26 or later on iPhone or iPad. On-device card generation uses Apple Foundation Models, which needs a device that supports Apple Intelligence with Apple Intelligence turned on. On other devices you can still type your own cards or generate them with QuickStudy Pro.
Does it need an internet connection?
No. Scanning, on-device card generation, practice, quizzes, and streaks all work offline.
You only need a connection for cloud generation (your first free cloud set, or QuickStudy Pro), for your own API key if you add one, and for purchases.
What can I turn into flashcards?
Pages you scan with the camera (including handwritten notes), photos and PDFs, and text you paste in from anywhere. You can also type cards yourself.
Do I have to keep every card the AI makes?
No. New cards show up as drafts before anything is saved. Drafts are kept by default: tap a card to edit it, swipe left to remove it, then save the set. Each card shows which page and paragraph it came from, so you can check it against your notes.
How do quizzes and streaks work?
Quizzes are multiple choice, built from your saved cards. Each question includes a “Why?” explanation tied to your source. Cards you miss come back sooner, and cards you know come back less often.
Your streak counts the days you finish a session. You earn a Streak Freeze for every seven days you study, and one is used automatically when you miss a day.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up, no login, and no profile. Open the app and start scanning.
Free on the App Store.
Requires iOS 26 or later on iPhone or iPad.
