Our verdict on Metrum

Metrum is a study-planning application for students who need to organize subjects, syllabus topics, focus sessions, and study tasks in one place. Its planning model centers on study cycles with weighted subject rotations, while syllabus topics can move through theory, revision, and mastered states. Pomodoro and free focus timers support timed sessions, and manual logging covers sessions outside the timers. Study groups, shared syllabi, and checklists extend the app beyond individual planning.

The free plan is substantial for students starting with one study cycle. It includes one owned group with up to five members, daily analytics, and syllabus, session, and task management. Pro costs $4.99 per month or $39.99 per year. Both paid options add unlimited study cycles, unlimited groups and members, daily through yearly analytics, and analytics export. The paid tier is most relevant to students managing several courses or wanting longer-term progress analysis; a single-cycle plan may be enough for simpler needs.

Metrum supports web access and an iPhone beta that synchronizes through the same account. Its strongest fit is for students who want study planning tied closely to syllabus progress and logged focus time rather than a general routine checklist. The app also suits collaborative study through shared syllabi and groups. Students looking for Android access, a broad general-purpose routine planner, or a non-beta iPhone experience should choose a different tool. For web and iPhone users who value cycle-based planning and can work within its focused scope, the free plan offers a practical starting point.
