History Master vs Scrivium

History Master is a history study app covering events, dates and timelines for learning and revision. Its topics include prehistory, ancient civilisations, the Middle Ages, the modern age, the 19th century and the world wars. Syllabus material is presented through clear, schematic explanations and summaries. Students can practise topic by topic with multiple-choice quizzes and exercises, and use interactive timelines to review chronology. An AI tutor answers questions, explains material step by step and helps with difficult topics. The notes scanner uses AI to turn photographed notes into mind maps and flashcards. The app is available on iOS and Android in 16 languages. It is free to download; the listed Free plan costs nothing, while some extra features or content may be optional. MasterApps describes its educational apps as intended for middle-school, high-school and university students. The privacy policy says studying works without registration or accounts, does not request personal study data and does not create advertising profiles. Anonymous diagnostic and statistical data may be collected through Apple and Google, while preferences remain on the device.

Scrivium offers study guides and interactive lessons in history and literature, with guided paths through the material. Lessons pair brief readings with questions and activities; learners can read or listen at their own pace. The app listing describes daily lessons of 5 to 10 minutes, three-week guided journeys featuring historical figures, and practice sessions based on methods associated with those figures. A personal commonplace book holds saved lines, reflections, and practices. Study guides are free to read, and opening lessons from released courses are available without signing up. Users can unlock titles with credits purchased once or through a yearly Early Believer plan; unlocking provides lifetime access and updates. Credits generally expire 12 months after they are granted, and unused membership credits expire at the end of the billing period after cancellation. Scrivium is available on Android, iOS, and macOS. Individual account holders must be at least 13 unless a parent, guardian, or authorized school arrangement applies. Its terms say user inputs and outputs may be used to provide and improve the service, with an email opt-out for improvement use.
