Do I need Excel installed to use the app?

No! Desk Dojo is a standalone learning app. Practice on your phone, then apply what you learn when you're at your computer.

What subjects does the app cover?

Two full modules: Excel (formulas, shortcuts, pivot tables, dynamic arrays) and Finance (accounting, corporate finance, markets, fixed income). Both are included with one subscription.

Is this for beginners or advanced users?

Both! Excel starts with navigation and SUM, then builds to XLOOKUP and dynamic arrays. Finance starts with financial statements and builds to options and derivatives.

How long does it take to complete?

Each lesson takes about 5 minutes. Complete a world in a few weeks of daily practice, or go at your own pace.
