Everyone overestimates how much they revise and underestimates how unevenly it is spread. Start the timer, pick the subject and the topic of the syllabus, score your focus at the end. The per-subject breakdown shows where the hours really went before the exam, the topics show what has not been touched yet, and the weekly rate shows whether the plan is on track.

What you’ll track
The Study Sessions log, out of the box

Let the stats accumulate
Average focus sits on the log card, with the rest one tap away. Set a goal if you want a nudge.
Why this log
Built for the way you actually do it
Hours per subject
The timer and the subject as a grouping variable give you time per subject for the week and the term. The avoided subject is obvious within days, while there is still time before the exam.
Topics covered, topics not
Each session names the topic it covered, and topics you have typed before come back as quick picks. Hold the list against the syllabus and the gap is the revision plan for next week.
Focus, scored honestly
A focus score at the end of each session separates a real two hours from a distracted one. The average per subject, and the library against the kitchen table, tells you where to change the setup.
Everything else in the app
Not just a form. A logbook that thinks with you.
The Study Sessions log is one log among many you can keep. Every one of them gets the same tools.
💡AI analysis
AI reads the pattern for you
Tap the bulb on Study Sessions and get a plain-language read of your trends, what changed recently, and a suggested next goal, built only from your own entries.
🎯Goals
Goals, streaks and reminders
Set a target like three times a week, watch the rolling progress bar, keep a streak, and get a reminder at the time you actually log. The app learns that time from you.
📅Calendar
A calendar heatmap per log
Every log has its own month view showing which days you logged. Gaps are obvious, consistency is visible, and one tap opens that day's entries.
🔁Rounds
Several subjects in one entry
One entry can hold a round per subject, each with its own values, and the stats break them out separately.
📷Attachments
Photos, sketches, voice memos
Attach a photo, draw a quick sketch, or record a voice note on any entry. They stay with that entry and come back on every device you sign in on.
🗺️Map
Every entry on a map
Drop a pin or search for the place. Each log has a map view of everywhere you logged, and saved places open directly in Google Maps.
🔍Search
Search across everything
Find an entry by title, note or value across every log, filter by date or location, and jump straight to it.
🔒Privacy
Yours, offline first
Entries save on your phone first and sync when you sign in. No account needed to start, no feed, no one else sees your data.
Who uses a study log
Students in exam term who need to distribute time across subjects, people working towards a certification alongside a job, and anyone who has discovered that “I studied all weekend” was actually four hours.
It also suits self-taught learners working through a course on their own, where the log is the only accountability and the topic list is the syllabus.
What a few weeks of sessions show
Hours per subject compared with the exam weights is the single most useful chart a student can look at, and the per-subject breakdown is that chart. The topics show which parts of the syllabus have been revised twice and which not at all.
The weekly session goal is about rhythm. Ten short sessions beat two heroic ones the night before, and the progress bar rewards the rhythm.
It has a plain timer per entry. Run your own intervals and log the session as one entry, or log each block as its own round.
Can I plan a schedule in it?
No. It records what happened. A weekly goal of sessions and a reminder cover the “did I show up” half; planning stays in your calendar.
Can I track pages or problems done?
Yes. Add a number variable such as “Pages” or “Problems” and the sum per subject appears with the hours.
Is this the right log for a language or an instrument?
For a language you learn every day, the language-learning log fits better: minutes per language, new words and a streak. For an instrument or another skill you drill, the practice log. This one is for subjects you are working through towards an exam or a deadline.
