## What is InkDeck?

InkDeck is the flashcard app you write by hand. Every card is a real drawing canvas — sketch diagrams, write formulas, practise kanji with Apple Pencil or your finger.

One-time purchase. No subscription, no trial countdown, no AI upsell.

BRING YOUR ANKI DECKS
Import .apkg files properly — Ink reads the collection database and brings your images and audio across, not just the text. CSV import works too, and you can export to .inkdeck.

STUDY FIVE WAYS
• Standard Review — flip and self-rate, with spaced repetition that schedules each card at the right time, plus reminders
• Quiz — four-choice questions with instant feedback
• Typing — type your answer, with fuzzy matching so a typo isn't marked wrong
• Match — tap to pair terms; Quick Fire, Batch Submit or Sliding Window
• Cloze Deletion — fill in the blank from context

FOUR GAMES BUILT IN
Card Shooter, Balloon Pop, Pair Hunt and Word Forge turn review into something you'll actually open.

RICH CARDS
• Mix handwriting and typed text on the same card
• Images, backgrounds and colour gradients
• Record audio for pronunciation practice
• Markdown for formatted text
• Organise with groups, topics and tags

TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
A calendar heatmap, review history, correctness stats and retention curves show exactly how you're improving. Keep your streak alive.

SYNCS, NO ACCOUNT
Your decks sync over iCloud across iPhone and iPad. No sign-up, no account to create.

Available in 11 languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, Arabic and Chinese.

Free to download with 3 sets of 10 cards. One purchase unlocks everything, forever, on every device on your Apple ID.
