### 4/5 — I liked it at first..but

*2020-10-29*

..I could not see progress. Maybe it’s because I wasn’t reviewing like the algorithm told me to.. I just wasn’t learning/progressing in comparison with other apps.

**Developer response:** Hi Magnoliea and thanks a lot for you feedback! The success of the Spaced Repetition method and hence of the app Spacify is vastly dependent on following the review intervals the app creates for you. Maybe try and stick to the app's schedule (which will become less and less the more time passes by) in order to get the most out of your memory! Contact us anytime for any further questions you might have via support@spacify.app ☺️

Thank you and best regards!

### 4/5 — Readwise sync support?

*2020-09-22*

This would be so nice!

**Developer response:** Dear Big Appletite, thanks a lot for your feedback and suggestion, we will put it on our list! Best regards and keep enjoying the app ☺️

### 5/5 — I’m sold!

*2020-09-10, version 2.1.8*

As a self-learner, I’ve been looking for a simple yet powerful spaced-repetition tool. After testing several popular ones, I’ve decided to commit to Spacify. The interface is elegant. The timing of cards are on the money. I have to say it’s still a bit slow but the developer support is great. I feel they are dedicated in making this app one of the best learning tools out there.

It’s a big decision for me to commit to a tool that needs to be used for the long term. I’ve tried a lot. I’m sticking with this one.

### 5/5 — Great and amazing app

*2020-07-28, version 2.1.6*

This app uses scientific learning method to help your memory stay longer. Only few minutes per day can help me boost my vocabulary. Highly recommended.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-05-17, version 2.1.1*

Paid and found out that it doesn’t work. Developers are not fixing issues.

### 5/5 — Great app! - really works!

*2020-04-30, version 2.0.2*

This really helped me remember the key points I needed to pass my exams for my diploma! Love it and will continue to use!

### 5/5 — Intuitive yet powerful

*2020-01-31, version 1.5.2*

An app that completely blows its competitors out of the water, especially given its elegant design, it’s free price tag and the fact automates the entire Leitner process for you. I cannot fathom how this app hasn’t become mainstream.

### 4/5 — nice

*2020-01-29*

highly recommend a new icon

**Developer response:** Hi Aneericens, 
we have, together with some newly implemented features, updated our icon and of course would love to hear what you think about our new one! Best regards and we hope you keep enjoying the app ☺️

### 4/5 — One thing holding it back

*2019-10-18, version 1.5.2*

As the order of the cards does not change from when you input them, you end up memorising the order of the cards, rather than the content.

The app would be 5 stars if the shuffle feature was brought back.

Other than that, basically the same as Anki. But it costs nothing.

*changed review because they fixed previous issue where app froze on start up*

### 5/5 — Super

*2019-10-10*

So far it meets my needs better than any of the many flash card apps I tried. In particular I only want to create and review my very own cards on a spaced review basis without taking on communities of users and monthly subscriptions. One additional feature that would help me would be the ability to reverse the cards, so to speak—not only use the questions to probe for the answers, but also use the answers to probe for the questions answered. Essentially I want to view sides A and answer side B or alternately view sides B and answer side A of two sided cards. My info is best learned in both directions, say, on alternate days or morning and evening.

**Developer response:** Hi xx??!! and thanks a lot for your nice feedback! The mentioned feature of flipping the flashcards depending on your review needs is definitely a thing we want to implement in the future! Keep enjoying the app and happy spacifying!

Images and formulas are free for everyone now.

### 2.8.2 — 2026-08-08

A new paste button shows up in the toolbar only when you've got something to paste — and you can now hide any buttons you never use.

### 2.8.1 — 2026-07-30

• 30% fewer reviews for the same results: the new scheduling engine remembers how you forget.
• Google Sheets import is now one step: paste a share link, done.

See you when the algorithm says so.

### 2.8.0 — 2026-07-08

It's been a while since an update this big.

The new Insights screen shows how well you actually remember — your retention rate, and the cards that keep slipping away. We all have a few of those.

The dashboard now has a reviews graph: a whole year of your studying, streak included. It's lovely to watch it fill up. Want it on your home screen? There are widgets for that now.

Done with a topic? Archive it. The cards leave your reviews but stay in your library, just in case you get sentimental and can't bring yourself to delete them.

And Spacify now speaks Korean. 환영합니다!

While we were in there, we made search instant and fixed 17 bugs. Thanks for learning with us — see you at the next review.

### 2.7.5 — 2025-06-09

• Greatly improved performance: app launches instantly.
• Added button to return to main screen during review sessions.
• Enhanced CSV import: delete rows before importing, count total cards, shuffle for better study distribution.
• Fixed "Start Review" button to correctly show next review time.
