Flashcards turns the proven Leitner system into a calm daily habit. Create cards in seconds, study offline without an account, and watch every card climb from box 1 to box 5. HOW IT WORKS • Create: type a card, add a photo from your camera or library, or record a voice memo. • Study: flip the card and rate yourself. Known moves it up a box, Again sends it back to box 1. Mark tough cards as hard to practice them more often. • Remember: each box waits longer – 1, 3, 7, 14, then 30 days. You only review what you are about to forget. FREE, OFFLINE, NO ACCOUNT • Unlimited topics and cards • Text and images on either side of a card • Five Leitner boxes with clear intervals – you always see why a card is due • Daily reminders at your time, streaks and progress • Your library stays on your device: study on the plane, in the subway, anywhere • Light and dark mode, iPhone and iPad, 9 languages • No ads, no tracking FLASHCARDS PLUS (OPTIONAL SUBSCRIPTION) Plus adds the online features.
