Free · In‑App Purchases
Study with purpose. Contribute Study Points to unlock real donations supporting education, and join the new Study Room with live study presence and community activity.
Struggling to stay focused while studying?
StudyLock helps you stay on track by blocking distracting apps - and only unlocking them once you’ve studied and passed a quiz. Your study effort can also contribute to real-world educational impact.
Whether you're preparing for exams, tackling daily assignments, or working on long-term projects, StudyLock creates a structured, distraction-free environment powered by AI to support your learning.
How it works:
Upload study materials (PDFs, images, or dictate notes by voice) → Block distracting apps (yes, even TikTok) → Learn through AI-generated summaries → Take a quiz to prove you've studied → Unlock your apps once you meet the score threshold
Features:
• Chat directly with your materials using AI StudyBuddy: ask questions, get examples, or request quizzes
• Stay focused with Focus Mode, which automatically detects lost attention and closes study when you look away
• Study together in the Study Room with live study presence, daily check-ins, and community activity
• Download completed sessions as PDF to review key material, track progress, or share your work
• Set your own quiz score requirement to unlock apps
• Learn in the language you're most comfortable with
• Listen as your study material is read aloud, with each word highlighted as it’s spoken
• Adjust text size and background for easier reading
• Track completed sessions and study time
• Get personalised insights and study statistics
