StudyWright is a study app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. You bring it something to study, a PDF of your own or a title from its built-in library, and it lets you read the material, ask questions about it and take quizzes written from it. Every answer points back to the passages it came from, so you can check it against your material.

What StudyWright does

  • Read. Open a document, find your place from its Contents, and search inside it.
  • Ask. Type a question about the document you are reading. StudyWright finds the passages that bear on it and Apple Intelligence writes an answer, with numbered citations that open the passage they came from.
  • Quiz. Take a 10-question quiz on the whole document or on one section. After you answer, each question shows the keyed answer and the passage it was written from.
  • Highlight and take notes. Select a passage to highlight it or add a note. Notes stay on your device, and Ask and Quiz never read them.
  • Plan and export. Add a review session or a quiz reminder to your calendar, and export your study record.

StudyWright has no account, no login and no subscription.

Requirements

  • iPhone or iPad: iOS 27.1 or iPadOS 27.1, or later.
  • Mac: macOS 27 or later.
  • For answers and new quiz questions: a device that supports Apple Intelligence, with Apple Intelligence turned on. StudyWright uses Apple's Private Cloud Compute to write them. Without it you can still read, search, and see the passages a question finds.
  • Study language: English.
  • An internet connection for the first launch, for adding built-in titles, and for answers and new quiz questions. Reading and searching material already in your library work offline.

Getting started

  1. Open StudyWright. The first time, it downloads its English search model, about 128 MB, from Apple. The Library shows Preparing English… until the download finishes. You can browse the built-in titles in the meantime.
  2. Choose whether to share anonymous usage statistics. StudyWright asks once, before it sends anything. Choose OK to share them or Turn Off to decline.
  3. Add something to study. Use Add Material in the Library (the + button on Mac) and choose:
    • From Files… to import a PDF of your own. StudyWright asks you to confirm that you have the right to use it.
    • From Built-in Titles… to pick a title from the built-in library, which you can search, sort and filter by category.
  4. Open the document from the Library to start reading. Use Ask to ask a question and Quiz to take a quiz.

You can also drag a PDF onto the Library, or send one to StudyWright from another app's share menu with Save to StudyWright.

Common questions

Which files can I import?

PDFs. For a web page or an online document, export it as a PDF first. A PDF sent through Save to StudyWright can be up to 64 MB.

If a PDF is a scan, with pictures of pages rather than text, the import stops and the Library offers Read it as scanned pages…. StudyWright then recognizes the text on each page on your device. Recognized text is only as good as the scan, so a clean, upright scan works best.

Why did I get passages instead of an answer?

When StudyWright cannot write an answer, it shows the passages it found in your material and says why. The most common reasons:

  • Apple's private cloud is busy. This passes on its own. Choose Try again shortly.
  • Your device's daily allowance is used up. Apple gives each device a daily allowance for Apple Intelligence. It refreshes on its own. Choose Try again later.
  • Answers aren't available on this device right now. Check that Apple Intelligence is turned on and that you are connected to the internet.
  • The passages didn't clearly answer the question. Try rephrasing it, or ask something narrower.

StudyWright never writes an answer with a model on your device. If Private Cloud Compute cannot answer, you get the passages, not a weaker answer.

What does "Not verified against your material" mean?

StudyWright checks each answer against the passages it found. When the check cannot connect an answer to your material, the answer is shown without citations and with this label. It may well be right; treat it as a starting point rather than as something your material says.

Why aren't quiz questions ready yet?

Quiz questions are written from your material by Apple's Private Cloud Compute, and only while StudyWright is open. If some are ready, you can start a shorter quiz now. The rest will be there next time. If Private Cloud Compute is unavailable, you can still take the questions already written for that document.

What if I disagree with how a question was graded?

After an answer is marked incorrect, choose Set this question aside. It no longer counts toward your score, and StudyWright won't ask it again.

Where are the settings?

  • iPhone and iPad: the Settings button (the gear) at the top of the Library, or in the reader's toolbar.
  • Mac: StudyWright ▸ Settings… (⌘,).

How do I remove a document?

  • iPhone and iPad: use the Remove button on the document's row in the Library.
  • Mac: choose Remove… from the document's … menu, or Control-click the row.

Removing a document deletes its stored text, search index, quiz questions, highlights, notes and the copy of the file from your device. Deleting the app deletes everything.

How do I turn off usage statistics?

Open Settings and turn off Share Anonymous Usage Statistics under Usage Statistics. The statistics are anonymous counts of the screens and features you use. They never include your documents, questions, answers or notes.

What leaves my device?

Your library, its search index, your highlights and your notes stay on your device. To write an answer or a quiz question, StudyWright sends your question and the passages it selected to Apple's Private Cloud Compute. The privacy policy describes everything in detail, and the same text is in the app under Settings ▸ About ▸ Privacy.

Is StudyWright a substitute for my course or official sources?

No. StudyWright is a study aid. Verify anything that matters against current official sources.

Reporting a problem

In the app, open Settings ▸ About ▸ Send feedback. It shows exactly what it will fill in: the app and system versions, the study language and a few counts, never a document, question or answer. Then it opens your mail app so you can describe what happened. Nothing is sent until you send the message yourself. If the problem is with a particular document, you can attach it in your mail app.
