FAQ
AI time blocking — frequently asked questions
What is AI time blocking?
It is time blocking where software places your tasks into calendar slots for you, using deadlines, durations and priorities, and moves them when plans change.
Is AI time blocking better than a paper planner?
It saves effort when your week changes often. A paper planner gives more control and no screen time. Many students do well with either if they review the plan daily.
How long should a study block be?
Long enough to finish a meaningful task but short enough to stay focused. Many students use 25 to 90 minutes with short breaks; experiment to find yours.
Does Revisable block time on my calendar?
No. Revisable schedules what to revise — flashcards and questions at the right intervals. Use it inside the revision blocks you plan with your calendar or planner.
Fill your revision blocks.
Revisable lines up the flashcards and questions that are due, so every block starts with a plan.
