Fresh Cards is a flashcard app that makes it easy to study consistently and remember what you learn. Smart scheduling, flexible study modes, and a clean interface that stays out of your way. Remember what you study — Every card you review gets automatically scheduled for the right time to see it again, so you're always reinforcing what's fading and not wasting time on what you already know. Just mark cards right or wrong; Fresh Cards handles the scheduling. Your Study Queue — Just open the app and start. Fresh Cards puts your cards in the best order to study right now — the ones you most need to review first, with new cards waiting at the end. Want a different angle? Switch to Seen or New with a tap, or pick from Weakest, Cram, Manual Order, or Starred when you need something specific. Three ways to test yourself — Classic card flip, word tile jumble where you arrange the answer, or typed input. Pick the mode that matches how you want to be challenged. Track your progress — See your streak, daily study history, and a full heatmap of past activity. A look-ahead histogram shows when your cards are coming due, so you can plan ahead and see your workload shrink over time. Cards that handle anything — Write in plain text, Markdown, or HTML, with MathJax support for math equations. Add images, audio, and text-to-speech to any card. Organize with decks, folders, and tags. Import from a CSV or text file to get started fast. Capture cards anywhere — Add new cards from any app with the iOS and Mac Share Extension, or use Quick Capture to jot down a card the moment an idea strikes. Siri Shortcuts and App Intents let you wire up your own study flows.
