### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed

*2025-03-21, version 1.1*

I’ve wanted a simple flash card app for so long and this is so perfect! No ads or trying to get you to “upgrade” to something else. Thank you so much for making this! 👏🫶🙏

### 5/5 — Excellent flash card app

*2025-02-20, version 1.1*

Really impressed with this app already, but v1.1 has made it loads better. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Perfectly simple!

*2025-02-12, version 1.0*

Just what I’ve been looking for, Many thanks!!
Is there a way to study a set more than 1 time per day?

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2024-06-14, version 1.0*

I like the app and the science based learning approach. It would be awesome if you could share decks with friends who have the app.

### 4/5 — Just needs a shuffle mode!

*2023-09-11, version 1.0*

Nearly a perfect app for basic flash card learning, a shuffle mode for decks would make it 5-star!

### 1/5 — Lol

*2024-06-04, version 1.0*

Bro you need to make people able to preview the decks.. you can’t even use it to review in your own. I just wanted to use the flash card feature not the actual method… but there’s no way to actually just review the deck itself .. if there is.. it’s not obvious at all

### 1/5 — It just shows me my flash cards answer

*2024-03-22, version 1.0*

I can’t even guess what’s on my card it just shows me the title and the answer :/

### 3/5 — App is plausible

*2025-09-25, version 1.1*

This app needs to import, export feature extremely.

### 3/5 — Folders

*2025-07-13, version 1.1*

Would be good if decks can be arranged into folders

### 3/5 — I concur with other criticisms made here…

*2024-09-18, version 1.0*

Came upon this app through developer’s Reddit post.  Started building the decks, but I can’t select them to use the flash card function. I can’t test myself. I only see the whole info for each card on one page. It’s a bummer.

### 3/5 — Need more flexibility

*2024-08-08, version 1.0*

To be useful, it should have the ability to review your flashcards at any time.

### 4/5 — Effective, simple flash card app

*2025-06-24, version 1.1*

Very useful app. Create and review flashcards. No ads or upselling. Dev - can you add a shuffle or randomizer to increase the difficulty of playback?

### 4/5 — Great but not enough features

*2025-05-05, version 1.1*

I love this app!! I use it all the time. Its super simple and very visually pleasing.

Some simple features I would suggest adding…

- randomize the order of flashcards when reviewing
- ability to reorder/organize decks in the main list you see upon opening the app
- archive decks (and retrieve them later)
- ability to type mathematic/scientific equations in flashcards
- ability to add small images

Regardless, I will continue using the app. This would just make it so I can have all my digital flashcard decks here instead of using other platforms for my math/science/image ones

### 4/5 — Nice and simple

*2025-03-05, version 1.1*

The app is great, it’s minimalist and usable offline. I would like it better if there was an option to shuffle the cards in both the Spaced Repetition mode and Free Review mode since the app’s two modes (as far as I know of) currently only present the cards in the order that they were added to the decks. It would also be nice to have the option of studying multiple decks in one session. If these features could be added in an update, that would be great!

### 4/5 — How does it work?

*2024-12-29, version 1.0*

Not sure how to start the flash card portion. It just lets me add cards, then there's a button that says "Nothing to review today" which does nothing.

UPDATE: go to the cards screen and click the text "X to review" or "X total" to start the lessons. UX nightmare please make it more obvious, add a play triangle button or something!

### 5/5 — Absolutely Phenomenal

*2026-03-26, version 2.0*

This is a simple flash card app. You do not need an account. You don’t even need Wi-Fi. You’re not bombarded with ads, and I just cannot think the developer for taking the time to create something like this.

If possible, could you please update it so I can move decks because they’re in just kind of whatever order I created them, but it would be nice if I could kind of just organize them a little nicer and move them around but other than than that, it’s absolutely perfect! 😊

### 5/5 — Gostei

*2025-10-16, version 1.1*

É simples mas eficiente

### 5/5 — Ebbinghaus is GREAT

*2025-09-21, version 1.1*

I personally love this as it is free and does a great job. They don't make you pay for any of the features, and let you review the card infinitely. it does a better job than may paid apps and has helped me go from grade 6 - 8. Love it.

### 5/5 — Easy, simple, and free

*2025-09-09, version 1.1*

It was so difficult to find a flashcards app for IOS that works offline, without requiring a ridiculous subscription fee. Thank you for your work ❤️

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-08-06, version 1.1*

A lot of freedom in what you want to do.

### 5/5 — Good potential

*2025-07-26, version 1.1*

This app has really good potential, but I find it quite feature lacking but I mean it looks quite new. I’d advice to make it so the deck shuffles automatically when reviewing, since it is quite an easy feature to add. Like a quick and easy way of doing it would be to duplicate the vector of flashcards then take a random index, remove the item from the vector and redo.. redo.. until the size of the vector is 0. Also adding image support or audio support would be nice, but not really needed. Also I’d like to be able to set the colour of the background of the card based off its side, lime being able to set the colour of the front or the back, which again quite easy because you only need to add a Color variable to your struct for the cards

Anyways, the design of the app is nice and looks modern so yeah

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2025-05-24, version 1.1*

Simple & easy to use and very nice design, I use it almost every day now. Would be great to have an option to shuffle the cards when reviewing, and to edit colours when filling in the card info instead of only after. Well done making the app!

### 5/5 — Free + Clean UI

*2025-05-11, version 1.1*

This is by far the best flashcard app I’ve used, I really like the design of it, and how you can create unlimited decks and flashcards.

### 5/5 — Clean, Free and made with love

*2025-04-25, version 1.1*

absolutely loving this app so far, makes using flash cards on mobile efficient and not a headache. I’d like to say thanks to the dev for such a great app :)

### 5/5 — The best flash card app

*2025-04-03, version 1.1*

It’s definitive. I don’t know why you would use anything else particularly Quizlet(which I hate).
