StudyCue Planner help

Use these guides to set up StudyCue in a practical way: start with your schedule, add real tasks, study with focus sessions, and use Cue AI, flashcards, quizzes, and Group Planning as support tools.

Getting started with StudyCue

  1. 1Create a free account, then open the dashboard as your daily starting point.
  2. 2Add fixed commitments first: classes, labs, online sessions, internship shifts, and known exam dates.
  3. 3Add tasks only after the week is visible, so due dates and study blocks are planned together.
  4. 4Pick one priority for the next focus session instead of trying to reorganize the entire semester at once.

How to add a class schedule

  1. 1Start with recurring classes and meetings because they define the space left for studying.
  2. 2Use clear names such as "Chem Lab" or "History Lecture" so the calendar is readable on mobile.
  3. 3Add location or online notes when they help you prepare before class.
  4. 4Leave buffer time around commute-heavy or lab-heavy days so the planner reflects your real energy.

How to create and organize tasks

  1. 1Write task titles as actions: "Outline essay intro" is easier to start than "Essay."
  2. 2Give every important task a due date, even if it is a self-imposed review deadline.
  3. 3Split large assignments into research, draft, revise, submit, and follow-up pieces.
  4. 4Review overdue tasks weekly and either reschedule them honestly or delete tasks that no longer matter.

How to use the focus timer

  1. 1Choose one task before starting the timer, such as solving ten problems or reviewing one lecture.
  2. 2Put distractions away for the session instead of relying on willpower halfway through.
  3. 3After the timer ends, write a short completion note or update the related task.
  4. 4Use shorter sessions when you are tired and longer sessions for deep reading, writing, or exam review.

How to use Cue AI responsibly

  1. 1Ask Cue AI to help plan, prioritize, summarize your own notes, or generate practice ideas.
  2. 2Do not use Cue AI to cheat, submit prohibited generated work, or bypass your school rules.
  3. 3Verify important facts, formulas, citations, and deadlines against official class materials.
  4. 4Keep prompts specific: include the course, deadline, constraints, and what you have already tried.

How to use flashcards and quizzes

  1. 1Turn definitions, formulas, mistakes, and lecture questions into flashcards soon after class.
  2. 2Use quizzes after reading or reviewing to test whether you can recall ideas without looking.
  3. 3Treat wrong answers as planning input: schedule a review block for the weak topic.
  4. 4Keep practice short and repeated across several days instead of saving everything for exam night.

How Group Planning works

  1. 1Start with the shared deadline, then list the separate deliverables the group must finish.
  2. 2Create checkpoints for research, draft review, slide cleanup, rehearsal, and final submission.
  3. 3Assign follow-up tasks after each meeting so decisions do not disappear in chat threads.
  4. 4Use StudyCue to clarify responsibilities, while keeping direct communication with teammates.

Troubleshooting login and account issues

  1. 1If login fails, check that you are using the same sign-in method you used when creating the account.
  2. 2Use the forgot password page for email/password accounts and check spam or promotions folders.
  3. 3If Google sign-in gets stuck, try a fresh browser tab, disable strict third-party cookie blocking temporarily, or clear site storage.
  4. 4Contact support with your account email, device, browser, and the exact step where the problem happened.
