Hlayiso is the free CAPS-aligned study app that turns revision from Grade 1 to matric into short, clear sessions that fit your phone, your time, and your data plan. Whether you're a parent helping a Grade 2 learner read their first words, a Grade 7 student drilling Natural Sciences, or in the final sprint to NSC matric exams, Hlayiso grows with you. One app. Every grade. Every subject that counts. ⭐ WHY STUDENTS AND PARENTS CHOOSE HLAYISO ✅ Thousands of past exam papers with full memorandums, organised by year, paper and province ✅ Revision notes covering every core CAPS subject, with worked examples, diagrams and mathematics rendered properly ✅ An AI tutor tuned to the South African classroom — NSC command verbs for older grades, age-appropriate explanations for younger learners ✅ Snap any question with your camera and get a clean step-by-step solution ✅ Works offline for notes, past papers and flashcards, so you can study on the bus or through load-shedding ✅ Free forever plan. No credit card required. 📚 PAST PAPERS AND MEMOS Past papers from 2015 onwards, including NSC, preliminary and provincial papers from Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape, Western Cape, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, Free State, North West and Northern Cape. Every paper ships with its full memorandum. Built-in PDF viewer, fast search, and a memo toggle so you can mark your own work the way a teacher would. 🎯 QUESTIONS BY TOPIC Past paper questions re-organised by topic and difficulty. Struggling with fractions in Grade 5, electrochemistry in Grade 11, or essay-type Life Sciences in Grade 12? Drill the exact skill without scrolling through an entire paper. 📝 REVISION NOTES Clean, section-based notes with worked examples, diagrams and proper mathematics rendering. Track reading progress, jump to any section, and highlight what matters. Designed for phones, beautiful on tablets. 🧠 QUIZZES Instant-feedback quizzes with multiple choice, true or false, fill in the blank, numeric input, cloze dropdown, matching pairs and ordering questions. Memo-style explanations and a results screen that shows exactly where marks were lost. 🃏 FLASHCARDS Short cards with spaced repetition, so the app surfaces weak cards more often and eases off once they're mastered. Perfect for sight words, times tables, definitions and command-verb responses. 🤖 AI STUDY ASSISTANT Ask anything in chat. Upload a worksheet, a photo of a question, or a past paper, and the AI walks through the solution in plain language. Voice input and text-to-speech mean you can revise with your hands full. 📸 SNAP AND SOLVE Point your camera at any question — handwritten, printed, or on a screen. The AI recognises the problem, breaks it down step by step, shows its working, and offers a practice variant for the same skill. 🎓 NBT PREPARATION Dedicated prep for the National Benchmark Tests (AQL, MAT and QL) with practice questions, timed mocks and topic breakdowns for university applications. 💰 BURSARY FINDER A searchable database of bursaries, scholarships and funding opportunities with deadlines, fields of study and application links. 🏆 BUILT-IN MOTIVATION Streaks, XP, diamonds, daily quests and weekly leagues keep the study habit alive on the days motivation dips.
