Recess connects active study with the moment a student reaches for a distracting app. Users can send notes, PDFs, or slides to generate flashcards and quizzes, set a daily study goal, and choose apps to place behind a study gate. When opening a gated app, a learner answers a question first; Recess offers multiple-choice, true-or-false, and fill-in-the-blank practice. Quiz and practice-test modes, spaced repetition, weak-spot drills, streaks, and an exam schedule help organize review. AI deck generation runs on the developer's servers, and the App Store says an active Recess Pro subscription is required; there is no free tier. US pricing is $12.99 monthly or $39.99 yearly, with an eligible seven-day trial. Students should consider the subscription cost and review how uploaded course files are handled before sending class materials.
