Questions students ask first.
What's free?
App blocking, class review topics with quick explanations, and practice questions are free, with no card needed. Scholar adds quizzes generated from your own notes, slides, and PDFs.
What does Scholar cost and how do I cancel?
Scholar is $6.99 a month or $49.99 a year. It is an App Store subscription, so you cancel in your iPhone settings under your name, then Subscriptions. You do not need to contact us.
What happens to the notes I upload?
Your uploads are used to build your quizzes and are kept while your account is active. They are deleted when you delete your account. The text you upload is sent to OpenAI to generate questions; your name, email, and payment details are not. We do not sell your information. The full version is in the privacy policy. Read the privacy policy.
Does it work without willpower?
That is the point. You do not have to resist the scroll. You pick the apps to lock, and when you reach for one, Icarus asks a quick question from your class first. The habit stays, the outcome changes.
