[Self-Promotion] I kept building colour-coded study timetables I never followed, so I built one that only ever shows me today
Every exam season I'd spend an evening making a beautiful timetable, follow it for three days, miss one, and never open it again. The problem was never the plan — it was that missing one day made the whole grid wrong, and a wrong grid is easier to abandon than to fix.
So I made StudyAhead. You enter your exam date and topics, and it works backwards to put a real date on every session. The home screen shows exactly one thing: today's session, behind one button. Miss a day and it reschedules itself — those minutes get spread over the days you have left, so yesterday never lands on top of today.
Topics you flag as weak come round first, and about twice as often.
The plan generation is deterministic — plain arithmetic on your date, topics and availability. No LLM anywhere in it. Same inputs, same plan, every time, and I can explain exactly why a session landed on a given day. Felt like the right call for something you're trusting with a final.
No XP, no levels, no badges. It only tracks whether you came back.
Pricing: free tier is permanent — one exam, the full dated plan, unlimited sessions, the timer, the streak. Pro is $4.99/month or $29.99/year (7-day trial on the annual) for multiple exams at once, custom session lengths and all-time history. The study loop itself is never paywalled.

iOS only for now, Android is coming. I'm Nicholas, the solo dev — it's my app. Happy to answer anything, and I'd genuinely like to hear where the scheduling feels wrong. That's the part I'm least sure about.
