Waste of money

I used simplestudy for a small bit of my study for the leaving cert and the website was not very user friendly, I found it difficult to navigate and to get to what I was looking for, also a lot of the information in the notes and quizzes is quite irrelevant. Would not recommend.

Hi Adam, Phillip here, one of the co-founders of SimpleStudy. I'm very sorry about the confusing pricing and the mentioned issues with Biology questions being wrong. We don't want to leave such a bad first impression on you, and it's definitely not the experience we want you to have.

Please email us at hello@simplestudy.com, and we'll issue you a full refund for the amount you paid and upgrade your account to a free Ultimate plan premium access for a full calendar year to make it up for such a horrible experience. We'll also fix any Biology questions that might appear wrong immediately.

Thank you so much for bringing our attention to these issues. We'll make sure to note your feedback down and do better 🙏

ai slop all over again, behind a paywall. I wish there was a way to give 1 stars instead. Not even using it for 4 seconds you lose all access for the day. Is this worth your time? I think not.

Paid Barriers ruin experience

Was planning on using SimpleStudy for a level revision, but recently it became paid for. Free users don't have full access to even the most insignificant features. I understand the company needs to make money but I think at the bare minimum features like questions by topic should be provided for free, and maybe adverts used instead

Hi Esmond, Phillip here, one of the co-founders of the app. I completely understand your point about core features like questions by topic feeling essential, and keeping the app running while still offering meaningful free access is something we're constantly working on.

That said, we've chosen not to use adverts inside of our app because we don't want distractions during study time, but I hear what you're saying. If you’re open to it, please email us at hello@simplestudy.com, and we'll do our best to help and make sure you can properly use the app for your revision by upgrading your student account to an unlimited access for a full calendar year. And thank you so much for your honest feedback, we do genuinely appreciate your input 💙

Highly recommend, cheaper than a Tutor!

My daughter has been using the past papers a lot to help her with her revision. They don't yet have the Spanish speaking exams on there but after contacting customer services, they assured me they are working on it. Customer services are amazing btw, so if you are unsure about something just reach out.
This app has been so helpful to my daughter leading up to her GCSEs, I would highly recommend it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

AI-Generated Notes are USELESS

All their notes are AI
Half of the english notes have made up, hallucinated quotations, or are taking the text completely out of context. So lazy, such a waste of money. Do not buy if you have any sense.

Reply: Any of the Paula Meehan notes are completely wrong, similar with most of the poets.
