## What is Swiftflip?

Swiftflip is a spaced repetition flashcard app for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. Create rich cards with text, images, and audio, then review what’s due in quick, focused sessions. Sync with iCloud across your Apple devices.

Spaced Repetition
Swiftflip uses an FSRS scheduling model to bring back each card at the right time. Review what’s due, build momentum, and spend less time cramming.

Rich Flashcards
Make cards with text, images, and audio on both sides. Keep your material organized with decks and search, and edit quickly when you spot something to improve.

Across Your Devices
Pick up where you left off with iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. Practice on Apple Watch for quick due-only sessions on the go.

Focused Practice
Tap to flip, then mark answers to keep moving. Helpful onboarding hints guide first-time users, and accessibility settings like Reduce Motion are respected.

Review Both Ways
Turn on Review Both Directions for a deck to keep separate Front → Back and Back → Front progress. Build Custom Practice sessions with the decks, first side, order, size, focus, and retries you choose.

Pause Reviews
Pause a card or a whole deck when you are not studying it. It stays in the library and comes back with its schedule when you resume.

Import & Export
• Import from Anki (.apkg / .colpkg)
• Import and export CSV
• Export as a Swiftflip archive for backup and sharing

Shortcuts
Use the Shortcuts app and Siri with App Intents to practice due cards, practice a deck, view decks, and view insights. Home Screen quick actions help you jump in faster.

Insights

Made for Apple Devices
Swiftflip feels at home on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch with smooth animations, clean typography, and an interface that stays out of your way.

Privacy
Swiftflip does not track you. Your flashcards sync through iCloud. Cloud AI is included with Premium on iPhone and iPad and asks before it is first used. When it runs, your topic, instructions, and relevant existing card text are sent to Swiftflip and an AI provider to generate cards. You can turn it off in Settings. No account is required.
