## What is Flash Cards?

Remembering things just became much easier. Based on Forgetting Curve, using the SM2 algorithm to repeatedly remind you to review. The goal is to help you remember anything you don't want to forget, such as learning a language or preparing for medical and legal exams, and even your whimsy that you don't want to be obscured by time.

You can set questions for card front, then recall the answer according to the question.

Your data will be backed up automatically to your iCloud account. That means all your stuff — flashcards, tags, preferences, and more — is safe, up to date, and available on all your devices.

You can share notes with other users and invite them to contribute to your notes.

Some of Flash Cards' features include:

· Support for setting font size of the text to make it catch the eye of the reader.
· Support for different font families to help differentiate between sections of the content that serve various purposes (e.g. main text and a side quotation or a recap).
· Support for both markers (background color) and pens (text color) to make the text stand out even more and draw attention.
· Support for advanced text styling features such as subscript, superscript, link and code. 
· You can embed online video and audio players within notes. 
· The Code Block feature which allows inserting and embedding syntax color highlighted code snippets into the editor.

### 1/5 — Difficult to customize with no guidance online and will not let you move forward

*2026-08-21*

I’ve been using this app for a couple weeks and after finally getting all of my study questions inputted I’ve been trying to study repeatedly so I can absorb the information. However, it keeps putting up a timer stopping me from studying saying I can’t study for another 18 minutes. I’ve tried to change the settings. I’ve tried to Google search how to change the settings and nothing stops that from popping up. I’m very disappointed and will likely not be using this app much longer. It also made me purchase it twice in order to use it on my phone and on my MacBook rather than the one purchase attaching to my iCloud account and counting for all devices which is really scummy.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-05-17*

Eigentlich finde ich die App gut aufgebaut, aber sie lässt sich nicht zwischen dem MacBook und IPhone synchronisieren… einen funktionierenden Support gibt es scheinbar nicht. Damit für mich rausgeschmissene 6,99€
