• Covers both GCSE AQA Combined Science (Trilogy) and Biology (Triple Science), at higher & foundation level
• Flashcards on the required practicals
• Loads of handy tips and examples
• Easy but effective revision - you just answer the flashcards and the app automatically tells you when to review them
• Nothing is hidden behind in-app purchases, subscriptions or adverts

****

Biology has hundreds of facts, processes and concepts that you just need to know, and it’s a massive job to revise all of them… but don’t worry, we’ve got your back!

COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE

We've broken biology down into hundreds of easy-to-learn flashcards (including flashcards on the required practicals), sprinkled them with loads of handy tips and examples, then packed them all into our simple but effective app.

Each flashcard was hand-crafted by a science graduate who has worked for the UK's No.1 Educational Book publisher, and our apps have been developed in consultation with an experienced GCSE teacher.

And it doesn’t matter if you’re taking GCSE AQA Combined Science (Trilogy) or GCSE Biology (Triple Science) - the app covers both of those specs at higher and foundation level. You just select the spec and level when you first start the app, and you can change these options at any time.

REMEMBERING MADE EASY

The key to remembering facts, processes and concepts is to review them repeatedly over time. That sounds like a hassle, but each Key Cards app has an automatic review system at its core that uses the principle of spaced repetition for effective revision.

All you need to do is answer the flashcards and you'll be told when to look at them again - easy!

NO IN-APP PURCHASES OR SUBSCRIPTIONS

You'll get the fully-featured app and all of the content as soon as you buy it - nothing's hidden behind in-app purchases, subscriptions or adverts, and we don’t collect any of your data.

EASY TO USE, EVEN ON THE MOVE

Our apps work wherever you are - you don’t need paper, a pen, a calculator, or even an internet connection.

You can just jump in for a quick blast of revision whenever you've got five minutes free - perfect for when you're waiting for the bus.

COMPLETE THE SET - FOR LESS

Want to be super-prepared for your science exams? Get the Key Cards GCSE AQA Chemistry and Key Cards GCSE AQA Physics apps. And if you’re revising GCSE maths, the Key Cards GCSE Maths app (for AQA, Edexcel and OCR) is also available.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-04-13*

Now first year uni studying NatSci, so a bit late to review… I used these three years ago for my GCSEs and they cover EVERYTHING. They were the only source of revision that I used, and once I’d memorised all cards I flew through the exam and got a 9. If you put the time into learning the cards thoroughly, you’ve got all the content down (which is all you need for GCSEs)

### 5/5 — LITERALLY PERFECT

*2024-12-02, version 1.5.1*

these flashcards strike the perfect balance between having all the information you need and keeping it relatively simple. Using these helped me achieve a 9 in all my sciences at gcse, and I particularly found the spaced repetition feature useful to keep I am now doing a levels and if anybody would like some flashcard similar to these for a level biology and chemistry, I’ve made some on quizlet (username snowcat56). I tried to stick as closely to the style of these as possible. Hope this app or my flashcards can help someone out there!!

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing

*2024-09-02*

I did triple science this year and for my biology I only used this app for revision. The app is easy to use and especially helpful with revising little and often so is effective. I got an 8 but was only 1 mark off a 9 and I was estimated a 7 but got a 6 in my mocks. Honestly if you only do one bit of revision let it be using this app it is so helpful

### 5/5 — so you want a 9 in sciences?….

*2024-08-23*

This app is the most amazing thing to ever grace the planet for a gcse student. It WILL save your live and it WILL save your grades. All I ever did to revise was go through these flashcards and do past paper paper questions. That’s it. They are short, concise and to the point and feature everything you need to know. GCSE Results day 2024 was literally yesterday and I received 9s in separate science for bio chem and physics. Was I surprised? Not really 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️cause I knew I had this app and I knew used it well. Even If all the revision you do is just these flashbacks and you actually take the time and effort to genuinely go through them then I swear it’s IMPOSSIBLE to get less than a 7. Thank you to the creator of these apps I owe you one 🙏🙏🙏

### 5/5 — BEST REVISION APP EVER!!

*2024-08-22*

I just sat the recent exams series and today was results day. I was very pleased to receive grades 99 ( surpassing the grade requirements by nearly 60 marks) in combined science. I first got the biology app at the start of year 11 for mocks and the simple yet brilliant design allowed me to quickly confirm my strengths and focus on my weaknesses by showing wrongly answered cards on the daily. I quickly downloaded the Chemistry and Physics apps which lead to me achieving grades 99 in my mocks (chemistry at over 90%). I quickly recommended the apps to my friends both of whom received top grades today despite having never before. The app also doesn’t require any mobile data to use so I could do my science flash cards literally any where. However the only improvement I would suggest is the content for scientific working and around required practicals as they can count for quite a large proportion of an exam paper. Which isn’t currently covered in the app. Overall the cost of the apps was 100% worth it and couldn’t recommend enough!! P.s . I am doing both Biology and Chemistry for A level so an A level app would be greatly appreciated 😄.

### 5/5 — This app helped my Biology revison

*2024-04-28*

I decided to get this app because I was struggling to make flashcards for biology.
Make flashcards for every topic and sub topic was too time-consuming, and I was running out of time. Because of this I came across Key Cards. This app has single-handedly saved my science GCSE. This app has every single piece of content that you need in for detail. It really helped me with my exam technique as I memorise every single fresh card. It has all the required practical and equations that you need for the exam. also because I could use it off-line and it had no ads, I was able to use this on the bus and everywhere making my vision more effective. I would really really recommend getting this app and the chemistry and physics one because it’s so good and it has all the things you need in one place.

However, I would be really grateful if an Alevel AQA biology Key Cards app was made because it would really help me with my A-levels next year.

### 5/5 — Great for quick revision sessions

*2024-02-23*

Easy to use whilst travelling - for someone who spends a lot of time on the bus getting to school this app is great for effective revision without having to take lots of other equipment on the go.

### 5/5 — Amazing!!!!

*2024-01-25*

This app truly saved me, it was the best and (most fun) way to revise for Biology and got me 2 grades higher than I was predicted. I’m so thankful this app was created; anyone contemplating invest your time on the Flashcards and you won’t regret it 😊

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2023-11-25, version 1.3.1*

So glad we’ve discovered these!! All content for higher tier is here and it’s effortless to use. Just keep testing until they stick.

### 5/5 — Bloody fantastic app

*2023-09-21*

This was my only source of biology study, I didn’t listen in lessons, was never talented in science in any way and was terrified for my GCSEs. I was expected to fail. With about 8 months until my first exam, I began to use these biology Flashcards as well as the physics and chemistry ones that are also made by this developer. I can confidently say that these Flashcards changed my life because I genuinely would have failed and not have been able to continue my education. Because of these Flashcards I got a 9 and an 8 in my biology papers and an 8 overall in science. I am now doing biology as an A-level. I just wish they also made Flashcards for A-level as well!
