Thank you for using Studypress. The App is available on iPhone, iPad, Mac and the web.
Studypress is an online study room that works by booking. You book 25-minute blocks (slots), and you can enter starting 5 minutes before the start time.
If you have questions about the App, bug reports, requests or anything else, feel free to contact us at the email address below.

Writing “Studypress Feedback” in the subject line helps us respond smoothly.
Q. How long is a slot? A. One slot is 25 minutes. There is a 5-minute break between slots, and slots start every 30 minutes, at :00 and :30 past each hour. Slots can be booked from 4:00 to 24:00.
Q. When can I enter? A. Starting 5 minutes before the start time. You cannot enter once the start time has passed.
Q. How is attendance determined? A. Only by the time you were in your seat. Staying for 25 minutes gives ○, leaving after 12 minutes or more gives △, and anything less gives ✕. The App does not judge concentration or anything else from the content of the video.
Q. What happens if I book a slot but don’t enter? A. It is recorded as ✕. Slots whose time has passed are automatically marked ✕.
Q. I want to cancel a booking. A. Tap the slot in the Schedule to cancel it. You can cancel up to 2 times per week. The number of cancellations left is shown at the top right of the Schedule. It resets to 2 on Monday.
Q. I want to see past weeks. A. The Schedule shows only this week and next week. Past records can be checked under “History” in the Stats tab.
Q. I want to change my weekly goal. A. Tap “Completed Slots” on Home or “Booked Slots” in the Schedule to change it. For the current week, you can only increase it. This prevents lowering the goal to escape once it becomes clear you won’t reach it. Once the week changes, you can set it again freely.
Q. What happens if I don’t reach my goal? A. Your level goes down by 1 and you leave the team. You are automatically placed in the next team.
Q. How does my level go up? A. +1 if only you reach your goal, +2 if everyone on the team reaches theirs.
Q. I’m worried about my face being shown. A. Video is blurred on your device and reduced to 64×64 pixels before it is sent. Because of this reduction, the original video cannot be restored. There is no recording feature, and the relay server does not store it.
Q. Can others hear my voice? A. No. Audio is not handled at all, and the App does not ask for microphone permission.
Q. I don’t want my team to see my schedule. A. With Studypress Pro, you can make your schedule private from your team. Switch it in Settings → “Slots”.
Q. Someone is bothering me. A. Press and hold that person on the Team screen or on the screen during a slot to report and block them. When you block someone, their video and team display disappear right away, and they are removed from that team.
Q. I want to add my slots to my calendar. A. You can set this up in Settings → “Calendar Sync”.
Q. How does Apple Calendar sync work? A. The App creates a dedicated calendar named “Studypress” and adds your slots for the next 12 weeks. Adding or canceling slots is reflected as is. The App neither reads nor writes events in any other calendar. When you turn sync off, the dedicated calendar is removed along with its contents.
Q. Can I use Google Calendar or Outlook? A. Yes. Issue a subscription URL in Settings and register it in that service.
This URL has no authentication. Anyone who knows it can see the start times of your slots. Do not share it with others. If you have shared it, you can stop the subscription in Settings and issue a new URL.
Q. What does Pro include? A. Seven features: all periods in Stats, Widget, Private Schedule, Notes, To-Do, Penalty and Supporter.
Q. What is Penalty? A. A feature that lets you decide in advance an amount to be charged if you don’t reach your weekly goal.
Q. I want to restore my purchase. A. Tap “Restore Purchases” at the bottom of the Studypress Pro screen.
Q. I want to cancel my subscription. A. You can cancel from Settings → Apple ID → “Subscriptions” on your iPhone. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the period, it renews automatically. The one-time purchase plan does not renew.
Q. I want to change my display name or icon. A. Tap your own row on the Team screen to change it right there. You can also change it in Settings → “Account”.
Q. I want to delete my account. A. You can delete it from Settings → “Delete Account”. Your schedule, attendance records and level are all erased and cannot be restored.
Q. I’m logged in with my Apple ID but can’t change my email address. A. For accounts linked to an Apple ID, the email address is managed by Apple and cannot be changed in the App. To change it, go to Settings → Apple ID → “Sign-In & Security” on your iPhone.
Q. I’m not getting slot notifications. A. Check that notifications are allowed in Settings → “Studypress” → “Notifications” on your iPhone. In the App, you can turn the 5-minute and 1-minute notifications on or off separately in Settings → “Notifications”.
