Photograph the page.Answer the cards.
Not on the App Store yet. Leave your address and you get one mail on the day it is — nothing else, ever.
A textbook page, a PDF, a pasted paragraph or a YouTube link becomes flashcards. Each morning Pip, the squirrel who minds the apps you chose, asks for a few of them before those apps open. Give it the date of the exam and it keeps one number for how ready you are.
Free every day: cards from your notes 5 times a week, one run of each study mode a day, unlimited review, four starter decks, no ads. No account to make and nothing to cancel. Every deck exports to Anki.
A few cards in the morning, and the day is yours.
You pick the apps that can wait. Each morning Pip stands at their door with a short ritual — as many cards as you chose, or every due card if there are fewer. Finish it and your apps are open until midnight. Nothing due? Pip waves you through.
Later in the day he pops up with one more: one card opens the app for fifteen minutes, three open it for an hour. Every card is from your own review queue, and counts the same as any other review.
Klarrity never learns which apps you picked. Pause is always one tap away and never behind a paywall. The free tier guards one app at the gentlest level; Pro guards every app you pick and adds two stricter ones.
Show it the page. Check what it read. Then the cards.
Point the camera at a page, open a PDF from Files, paste a paragraph, or give it a YouTube link and the captions become the source. Highlighting text in another app and sharing it to Klarrity lands in the same place.
The app shows you the text it took — editable, before a single card is written — because a misread word becomes a wrong card. Choose questions, fill-in-the-blank sentences or both, or ask it to quiz you first and keep only the cards you missed.
Every card keeps the sentence it came from, and a tap shows it.
Learn it, write it, match it, then test it.
Send a link. Your friend is studying before they install anything.
Share a deck as a link or a QR code. On an iPhone it opens straight into a few of the cards through an App Clip — no download, no account — and if they want the rest, they keep a copy of their own. Friends get the words; your pictures stay with you. Update the shared copy or stop sharing whenever you like.
Free every day, and $44.99 a year if you want more.
Sold through the App Store, with its own free tier and its own Pro. It is a separate product from the Chrome extension: no shared account, and one purchase does not carry to the other.

Against Quizlet Plus, honestly
Quizlet is where your classmates are, and its library of ready-made sets is something Klarrity has no answer to and is not building one for. What it asks in return is an account before anything happens, $7.99 a month or $35.99 a year for Quizlet Plus — against $44.99 here — offline study only on a subscription, and an App Store listing that carries the “Contains Advertising” label. Klarrity has no library, no ads in any tier, and review offline on the free one.

The promises that are easier to make than to keep.
- No account, no sign-in
- There is no email field and no password. Cards, decks and review history stay on the phone; nothing about what you study reaches a server to be stored.
- Anki .apkg export, on the free tier
- Every deck exports as an Anki file you can open on any platform. Getting your cards out is not something you pay for, and never becomes something you pay for.
- Review works offline
- The review loop makes no network call. A train, a basement or a dead connection changes nothing about the cards that are due.
- No ads, in any tier
- Not on free, not between cards, not as a video you have to sit through before the next one.
The questions people ask first.
- What does the free tier give me?
- Cards from your notes 5 times a week, up to 10 cards from up to 3,000 characters each time. Up to 10 decks of your own and 3 decks friends share; the four starter decks are included and never count. One run of Learn, Write, Match and Test each a day, one introductory quiz-first round, and Pip at the door on one app. Review is unlimited and works offline, every deck exports to Anki, and there are no ads in any tier. No account and no payment card. The free tier does not expire, and a deck you already have is never locked.
- What does Pro cost?
- $7.99 a month or $44.99 a year, bought through the App Store. The yearly plan starts with a 7-day free trial; cancel before it ends and you won't be charged. Monthly has no trial. The free tier never expires.
- Do I need an account?
- No. There is no sign-in, no email, and no password. Cards, decks and review history stay on the phone. That also means there is nothing to log into on a second device — an iCloud backup on Pro is how a deck moves.
- How does it make cards from a textbook page?
- Photograph the page. The app reads the text off the photograph, shows you what it read so you can correct it, and writes cards from that. A PDF works the same way. Every card keeps the sentence it came from, and a tap shows it.
- What is Pip at the door?
- The study lock. You pick the apps that can wait — the ones that eat your evenings. When you open one, Pip asks for a single card from your own review queue. Answer it honestly and the app opens for fifteen minutes. If nothing is due, Pip waves you through. The free tier guards one app, at the gentlest level; Pro guards every app you pick and adds two stricter levels.
- Can I get my cards into Anki?
- Yes, on the free tier. Klarrity exports an Anki .apkg file you can open in Anki on any platform. Cards are yours to take with you; getting them out is never something you pay for.
- Is it the same thing as the Chrome extension?
- No. They are two products that happen to share a name and an idea. There is no shared account, no sync between them, and buying one does not buy the other. The extension works on a desktop browser; the app works on the phone, from the camera.
- What is the readiness number?
- If you give the app an exam date, it prints one figure for how ready you are for it — based on what you have actually got right, not on how many cards you own. It is there because a progress bar that only goes up tells you nothing.
