## What is Lorebyte?

Lorebyte is a flashcard app built on FSRS spaced repetition — designed for language learning and certification study. Review at the optimal moment, right before you forget.

◆ Science-based spaced repetition (FSRS)
- The modern FSRS algorithm picks what to review next
- Just rate each card: Again / Hard / Good / Easy
- Done for the day? Keep going in Practice mode without affecting your schedule

◆ AI-generated flashcards
- Paste text or import a PDF/photo, and AI drafts flashcards for you
- Runs fully on-device via Apple Intelligence on supported devices — nothing leaves your device
- Or bring your own API key (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, and more) for cloud-powered generation
- Review and edit every generated card before saving

◆ Create cards fast from your materials
- Import from PDFs, photos, and screenshots (English/Japanese OCR)
- Bulk import from CSV and plain text with automatic format detection
- Optional Japanese translation aid for English study text (on-device)

◆ One study flow across iPhone, iPad, and Mac
- Decks, cards, and history sync automatically via iCloud
- No account sign-up required; works fully offline
- Build and organize on Mac or iPad, review anywhere on iPhone

◆ Built to keep you going
- Daily goals and up to three study reminders per day
- Streaks with recovery, so a missed day doesn't reset your progress
- Organize decks with icons and colors; view stats per deck
- Automatic leech detection and flagged-cards-only review

◆ Privacy first
- No ads, no tracking, no third-party analytics
- Your study data stays on your device or in your own iCloud

◆ Pricing
- Try every feature free for 7 days
- Then unlock with a single one-time purchase (in-app). No subscription, ever
- Moving to a new device? Use Restore Purchases

For vocabulary, certification prep, and lecture notes — make remembering a daily habit.

Improvements to study tracking.

• Pausing or ending a session now records the study time and the number of cards you reviewed up to that point
• Choose which decks count toward the "cards remaining" on Home (Deck settings → Advanced), so a large import no longer hides what you planned to study today
• Import candidates can now show explanations
• The screen no longer closes and the device no longer sleeps while translating
• Refreshed the import screen design on Mac

### 1.0 — 2026-08-10

No release notes.
