## What is BoldFace Aviation?

BoldFace is an aviation study application designed by pilots for pilots. Create cards, manage decks, flag cards, review past sessions, and sync everything between devices to stay sharp. The app now includes 321 cards meant for the Private Pilot coming up on a Biannual Flight Review or the student pilot getting ready for a check ride; additional cards will be added frequently and consistently with information ranging from IR, CPL, CFI, and more. A simple flashcard methodology removes the ability to guess on multiple choice and all cards include references that encourage deeper study for better understanding. More cards will be continuously added by the creators!  

Most importantly, BoldFace allows the user to create custom cards, including a photo on the question and answer side, to incorporate into the study sessions alongside the app provided ones. Study specific aircraft details without having to go to a different app.

BoldFace lets the user organize any way they want; by category, deck, or flagging for the more difficult topics that are missed regularly. Users can review past sessions, export session details to PDF to send to a CFI or friend, and see performance by category. 

Key Features:
- Build custom cards with photos to add into categories and decks.
- Create decks with user selected cards.
- Send created decks, to include with custom cards, to other BoldFace users.
- Flag cards that require additional study or research later.
- Shuffle study sessions to avoid order memorization.
- See all past study sessions in a list and select a study session to see details including all missed cards from that session.
- Fully sync custom cards, decks, flagged cards, muted cards, and past study session information / statistics across devices.
- PDF exporter allows sending session results via iMessage, email, or saving to files.
- Create custom study sessions including categories, decks, missed cards, and flagged cards.
- Set notifications throughout the day to remain consistent in study.
- See all details of and mute any card in the Master Card List to remove the card from study without permanently deleting the card from the app.

This app will continuously be updated with new cards and features! If you have a recommendation for the app please reach out to us so our team can implement them!
Next update scheduled for 15 October and will include a preliminary batch of CPL cards including Pt 119, 121, 125, 135 specific questions.
