How?
Who creates the sheet: - On your phone (or tablet, computer): free and offline. It picks sentences from the sources, it doesn't write new ones. Good for summaries, outlines and maps; - Online AI: text rewritten by AI, smoother to read. Included in Pro. With the online AI, High-fidelity model appears: more complete and accurate, but slower.
- •

Creates the sheet and opens it. On the device you see "Reading your sources…"; with the online AI "The AI is writing your sheet…" (it can take up to a minute). Without internet, the online AI request waits and starts by itself as soon as you're connected again.

Start the oral exam
Starts. For each question: - Answer turns on the microphone ("Listening…"), I’m done when you've said everything; - Type to answer with the keyboard, I don’t know to skip; - Listen again rereads the question, Stop voice silences it; - Finish ends and shows how it went (it asks first: the answers aren't saved).
The first time, answering out loud needs the lecture transcription model: you download it only once. If the microphone is recording a lecture, answer by typing.
A spoken oral exam: the AI asks you one question at a time about the material you choose, you answer out loud and it corrects you. At the end you get an indicative grade, your strengths and what to review. Your voice stays on the device: only the text of your answer reaches the AI.
Free and Pro
- Free: summaries, outlines and maps on the device (up to 3 sources per sheet), Listen, reviews.
- Pro: the online AI for all sheets (20 a day, 5 high-fidelity), quizzes and flashcards, handwritten notes and photos as sources, unlimited sources, questions to your sources (30 a day) and “Study with me” (60 turns a day).
If you have Pro and reach a daily limit, you see a message; the next day it starts over.
Frequently asked questions
I don't see my lecture among the sources
It needs a ready transcript: open the lecture in Record and check that it's transcribed.
The on-device summary repeats sentences from the lecture
That's normal: on the device Sfoglia picks the most important sentences from the sources, it doesn't write new ones. For rewritten text you need Pro's online AI.
The AI wrote something wrong
Always check in the source (the minute or page next to the text) and use Report content: it helps us improve.
