I tried every AI to generate language decks but app doesn’t import them. I manually check everything and decks follow their described format precisely, still app don’t see cards when importing ### 4/5 — Très bien mais peut être améliorée *2026-08-04* Il faudrait à tout prix un mode révision basé sur un nombre de nouvelles cartes + des révisions des cartes non connues qui repassent en boucle jusqu’à ce qu’elles soient connues. Cela aiderait énormément pour l’apprentissage (comme sur AnkiDroid). Merci par avance pour la mise à jour !! ### 3/5 — Changed for the worse *2026-08-02, version 14.2.0* Since your last update, you have made it a lot harder to edit my content. If I have one line of entry, it is not a problem. But if I have a paragraph and need to scroll up to reach the area I need to edit, it does move. Please allow me to scroll upward to edit content. Thanks ### 4/5 — Review *2026-07-24, version 13.3.2* Been using for a while now and the recent updates have made saves more reliable and flashcards don’t disappear, no issues. ### 2/5 — Upper case *2026-07-13, version 13.3.0* Shame this app only supports lower case Cyrillic rather than the every day upper case Cyrillic for Bulgarian. ### 4/5 — Change in free cards *2026-07-09, version 13.3.0* Bummed to see they recently change their free cards from 100 to 80. Other than that a nice app, it takes a bit to get things set up. I do like the option of being able to hear the cards spoken. ### 3/5 — Мало бесплатных просмотров *2026-06-25* Уменьшили до 80 количество просмотров, которые можно делать бесплатно! Не честно по отношению к тем, кто мало пользуется приложением! ### 3/5 — Version 13.0.0 startet nicht auf Mac OS 13.7.8 *2026-06-15* Ich arbeite gerne mit Algo App - schon seit Jahren. Schön war die Portierung auf den Mac. Leider startet das Programm seit dem vorletzten Update nicht mehr auf dem Mac, obwohl die Version des MacOS funktionieren sollte. Der Support bietet keine Möglichkeit, das zu melden, nur FAQ. Das führt bei mir zu den drei Sternen und sollte das alles so bleiben, gibt es dann nur noch einen Stern von meiner Seite. Also vielleicht etwas mehr Kontakt im Support (klar, kostet) oder eine leicht erreichbare Meldefunktion für Bugs und bitte die Fehlerbehebung oder einen Hinweis, woran es liegen kann, wehalb das Programm nicht mehr startet. ### 5/5 — Thank you *2026-06-12, version 13.0.0* I’ve used AlgoApp since 2015. Got me through high school, bachelors, masters, job info I needed to know and countless certifications. Thank you making a massive difference in my life. Cheers ### 5/5 — Super appli *2026-06-09* Marche très bien utilisation fluide seulement j’aurais bien aimé pouvoir réduire le volume de rétention car je travaille avec des cartes assez lourdes et je me retrouve souvent avec des cartes qui reviennent trop souvent surtout au début. ### 5/5 — Best. *2026-06-09, version 12.1.0* I tried about 7 different apps on AppStore + original Anki and this is hands down the best: Flawless AI integration, ease of use, extra features, FSRS, etc. Amazing. ### 5/5 — Best *2026-06-08, version 12.0.1* I tried so many flashcards apps (around 7 original Anki) and this is hands down the best: Flawless AI integration, FSRS, easy-to-use, built-in contents, extra functions, simple syncronization across the platforms, etc. I hope more people would try this because it is genuinely awesome. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rort *2026-08-15, version 14.4.0* Used to be good now locked behind a pay wall to get a basic app idea, flashcards shouldn’t cost $15 a month ### 1/5 — Service keeps getting worse with each update. *2026-08-07, version 14.3.0* The maximum daily reviews for non-paying customers is being lowered with every single update. Today I did my review as normal and was stopped after 80 cards even though the daily limit was 100 cards before. Before it was 100 cards, I never even hit a limit. If you want people to pay to use your service, make it a paid service from the start. ### 1/5 — Not the real Anki *2026-08-06, version 14.3.0* This app is not the real Anki. They copied their name. ### 1/5 — Not Happy with New Update *2026-08-06, version 14.2.1* When I first started using your app a couple of years ago, I was very satisfied. But I noticed that every time you update it and make changes you create problems that were not there before. Currently I cannot edit my content if it extends more than a few lines because I cannot advance the screen upward to access it. Furthermore, it is no longer allowing me to copy and paste content. It allows me to paste it, but not save it. It just disappears. I have to type everything by hand. Please correct. Thanks! ### 1/5 — Deleted cards I spent hours on *2026-07-05, version 13.3.0* I spent hours over several days creating flashcards on this app. I paid for the pro version. I recently added cards to my deck, and today I wanted to review a specific card, so I searched the name of the content on the card and nothing came up. That’s when I realized that my deck was all of a sudden only 83 cards, when it had over 150. I never lost connection when creating these cards, and I always saved them properly. Now all my hard work is wasted and I have to scramble to rewrite all my cards using another app I will now have to find. Thanks for the headache and distress, Aglo. ### 1/5 — Reduced number of reviews on free version… *2026-06-30, version 13.3.0* They recently changed from 100 daily to only 80 daily… such a shame, and the algorithm has gotten a lot worse too (keep getting recommend the same cards, never shows older cards so you easily forget them over time) ### 1/5 — App won't open on Mac *2026-06-19, version 13.1.1* Don't know how else to report an issue. I click on the app and a white window flashes onto the screen for a second and disappears. Doesn't open at all ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work properly *2026-06-09* After updating the sound doesn’t turn on simultaneously with the word translation when I flip the card in reversed ( card orientation) mode . It was much better earlier . Please fix it ! ( and I can’t find any other way to write to your app support 😭) **Developer response:** There was a temporary issue which is now fixed. Please try again. ### 1/5 — Não invistam nesse aplicativo *2026-06-05, version 12.0.1* Aplicativo lixo, horrível, se você precisa exportar cartões do aplicativo a ferramenta é muito ruim. Além, na versão gratuita você só pode revisar 100 cartões por dia, e o preço anual é 150,00, não invistam nesse aplicativo, se for pra pagar esse dinheiro, paguem no Anki oficial mesmo. Tem muito bug dentro do aplicativo e não é nada funcional, maior arrependimento ### 1/5 — 本当に使いにくい *2026-06-04* クソアプリ。フラッシュカードを作る時にわけわからん。 デッキのタイプを選ぶ時に、 わたしの場合、別のノートにまとめた英文を写真撮る。 希望としては、このアプリに和訳してもらい、表に日本語で裏に英語、英語を出してもらった時に音声を出す仕様にしてほしい。デッキのタイプで言語（フロント）、言語（裏）、音声、翻訳を選びますよね？その時に色々パターンを試すも全く希望通りにならない。 何と何を組み合わせたらどうなるかがすごくわかりにくい。コンフィグというボタンがあるので、たぶん選んだものがどうなるかプレビューみたいに見える？んですけど、それと全く違うものになってるし。。私がただのバカかもしれませんが、とにかくわかりにくい。 こんなん誰が使うんよ。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Brilliant for revision *2026-08-07, version 14.3.0* Amazing app, has helped me massively in A level physics where you absolutely must understand The content in order to get to the higher marks, I would recommend to anyone. The ai generated flashcards save SOOO much time aswell. Amazing app, couldn’t do all this without it. On track for A’s btw ### 5/5 — Über die Jahre stark verbessert *2026-08-01* Ich nutze die App seit ca. 3 Jahren, um für die Uni auf große Prüfungen zu lernen. Zu Beginn hat die App zwar ihre Aufgabe erledigt, aber sie war dabei definitiv noch ausbaufähig. Allerdings sind insbesondere im letzten Jahr wirklich einige große Updates gekommen, die die App wirklich unglaublich verbessert haben, und das auf allen Plattformen (Mac, iPad und iPhone). Mittlerweile kann ich die App definitiv empfehlen. ### 5/5 — Niceeeeeeee *2026-07-26, version 13.3.2* the best ### 5/5 — Love this App *2026-07-26, version 13.3.2* Love this app with everything i have. Used it for GCSEs using it now for my a-levels. I know people complain a lot about the premium package but tbh you don’t really need it. If you set yourself 100 cards as a daily goal, for me that’s an hour to an hour and a half a day so perfect for consistent revision. Tags are also incredible, dividing each cards into each subsection, i’ve done tags for the entire spec i love it. Strongly recommend if you need a free easy way to have repetitive spaced revision on your phone. ### 5/5 — The best *2026-07-13, version 13.3.0* This app is the best flashcard app I’ve ever used and it’s free so I love it. Thank you algo💞💞 ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-07-11, version 13.3.0* Enjoyed using the algo app and had helped me stay motivated in learning Spanish ### 5/5 — The auto generate cards is crazy! *2026-06-30, version 13.3.0* This is such an incredible tool even just with the free version, the AI image processing lets me take a photo of chunks of my french textbook with verb definitions and it automatically adds them to my review decks, even automatically handling duplicates. Really incredible stuff! ### 5/5 — BLESS YOU FOR LATEX SUPPORT *2026-06-26, version 13.2.3* It took me a while to figure out handling the AI for LaTeX-only entry (needs some very direct commands) but my cards no longer make me want to cry, thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️ if you never sell out or restructure you have my undying loyalty ### 5/5 — The best flash card app *2026-06-23, version 13.2.0* I know it started off as a knockoff of Anki, but after years of updates, it has left that barebones app in the dust. This is the best flash card app on the App Store ### 5/5 — UI Update *2026-06-17, version 13.1.1* Looks nice! So far so good --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
