### 5/5 — awesome

*2021-10-11, version 4.9.2*

awesome

### 5/5 — Best Logarithm, No frills

*2021-02-20, version 4.7.1*

It’s not a fancy app, I’m convinced a not for profit genius created it. 

The logarithm gets stuff in your head fast, so many tests in college I’ve aced using this app the night before lol!

I literally owe this developer for my grades, degree and job plus all the tests I’ve took for military training.

### 1/5 — Use quizlet

*2019-02-09, version 4.4.2*

This app is so awful! It’s not as easy to use as quizlet and not nearly as helpful

### 5/5 — Great help studying for wine certifications

*2018-09-24, version 4.4.2*

I love this app ... I’ve created cards for Certified Sommelier, CWS, FWS, IWS, WSET III, CWAS, ... you get the idea.  I’d change the GUI to have a more natural flow when managing cards but the modes for running the cards makes using them easy.

### 5/5 — Helped me so much

*2017-03-08, version 4.2.0*

Love this app!

### 5/5 — Great study tool

*2017-02-17, version 4.1.2*

I love using this for studying my notes at school . Works great for me

### 1/5 — Hideous Design

*2016-10-10, version 4.0*

This is an okay app as far as functionality is concerned, but it is so ugly and hideously designed, I don't even want it on my iPad. Such a shame, there's a wide open market for a beautiful and delightful to use flash cards app.

### 5/5 — good but..

*2016-09-16, version 3.8*

you can study on regular (real) flashcards and get the same result. but it is still good.

### 5/5 — Great study aid

*2016-03-04, version 3.7.1*

Does exactly as advertised, sharing card stacks is easy.

### 5/5 — 👍🏾👍🏽

*2015-12-03, version 3.7.1*

Pretty good app
