Study Bunny

Study Bunny is a motivational study timer for students who want timing, task tracking, flashcards and rewards in one app. Its mix of lightweight study tools and coin incentives suits self-directed learners, but it is a poor fit if you need app blocking or a Pomodoro timer.

Overview

Study Bunny turns study time into coins that can be spent on store items or music. Countdown and Stopwatch modes cover timed work, while Break mode supports pauses without awarding coins. The reward loop can provide a small nudge to keep studying, but it does not enforce a routine or prevent distractions.

Key features

• Timer and goals: Custom break settings and study goals make it possible to shape sessions around a personal routine. There is no Pomodoro mode, so users who want that familiar work-and-break structure should choose another timer.
• Study tools: A Study Tracker, To Do list, flashcards, subject or task labels and progress statistics bring planning and review alongside the timer. That breadth is useful for students who want one compact study workspace; those who only need a clock may find the extras unnecessary.
• Motivation: Optional Happy Meter changes the bunny’s mood, and Honesty mode asks users to report distractions. These features add a playful accountability cue, but both depend on honest participation rather than restricting app use.
• Background timing and saving: The timer keeps running when the app is in the background, but Study Bunny does not block other apps. Users can create an account and save or load progress manually; cloud backup is not automatic and requires internet.
• Ads and offline use: Forced ads can be removed and offline use enabled through one-time purchases. That can suit users who want a cleaner or disconnected setup, though cloud saving and loading still require internet.
• Language and privacy: The app has been translated into 14 languages, but some store and music text remains in English and right-to-left writing is unsupported. Google Play says the app may share location, app information and performance, and device or other IDs; data is encrypted in transit, and deletion can be requested.
• Support: Questions or unresolved issues can be sent to [email protected].

Pricing

Study Bunny is freemium, with a free download that contains ads and offers in-app purchases. The free plan is the sensible starting point for students who want to try the timer and study tools, but ads and backup features vary by purchase.

• Free app — free: Free download, with ads and in-app purchases. A fit for users willing to accept ads and decide later whether paid extras matter.
• 100 coins and 100 carrots — $1.99, paid once: A one-time purchase for 100 coins and 100 carrots. It adds currency, not the premium cloud or ad and offline features included in higher tiers.
• 250 coins and 250 carrots — $4.99, paid once: Adds premium cloud login and a monthly gemstone skin alongside 250 coins and 250 carrots. Choose it for those extras if forced ads and offline access are not priorities.
• 250 coins and 250 carrots, no forced ads — $14.99, paid once: Includes premium cloud login, no forced ads and offline use, as well as 250 coins and 250 carrots. This is the relevant one-time option for users who want fewer interruptions and offline access.
• 500 coins and 500 carrots, no forced ads — $19.99, paid once: Adds 500 coins and carrots, premium cloud login, no forced ads, offline use, a study buddy and a monthly gemstone skin. It is the fullest listed package for users who value those extras; others can avoid paying for the larger currency bundle.

There is no free trial. All paid prices are one-time purchases rather than recurring subscriptions.

Platforms

Study Bunny is available on Android, iOS and macOS. Apple lists iPhone support for iOS 12.0 or later; Mac use requires macOS 11.0 or later and an M1 chip or later. Google Play lists more than 5 million downloads under SuperByte.

Who it's for

Study Bunny is best for students who prefer a self-directed timer and want goals, tracking, to-dos and flashcards close at hand, with rewards to make study time feel more engaging. It is less suitable for anyone who depends on distraction blocking, Pomodoro sessions, automatic cloud backups or right-to-left language support.

Pros and cons

Pros

• Combines timer modes, a tracker, to-dos, flashcards and progress statistics, reducing the need to separate those basic study tasks across apps.
• Custom break settings, goals and subject or task labels support a more personal study routine.
• One-time paid options cover ad removal and offline use without a recurring subscription.

Cons

• No Pomodoro mode and no app blocking, so it cannot provide either a standard Pomodoro cycle or enforced protection from distractions.
• Cloud progress must be saved and loaded manually, and those actions require internet.
• Right-to-left writing is unsupported, and some store and music text remains in English despite the 14-language translation.

Verdict

Choose Study Bunny if you are a self-directed student who wants a timer, practical study tools and a playful reward loop in one place.
