Instructions

Get the App

Check Notes

Make sure students’ notes are compatible with the Five Star Study App. Students can easily scan writing in any Five Star Study App-enabled school supply including Notebooks, Composition Books and Filler Paper. They can also make any handout compatible by using the clear front pocket on select Five Star folders and binders.

Mark Key Information

Scan for success! Students flag important notes by shading the triangles in the margins of the paper or by drawing a line on the page next to the notes they want to scan. This helps the app identify and create flashcards after the page is scanned.

Take a Picture

Scan notes into the app by using the camera in the Five Star Study App. The app will capture and save the entire page, plus pull out the flagged notes for digital flashcards.

Organize, Study, and Share!

Use the app to organize notes by subject, rearrange or add notes, and keep track of important due dates. Students can also connect the app to Google Drive to quickly share notes with classmates.
