SuperCards Mobile turns your iPhone into a powerful tool for learning, thinking, and remembering. Sync decks you've created in SuperCards for Mac or import decks that have been shared with you. Tap a deck in your Library to open it in Study Mode, an immersive, distraction-free interface that renders each card just how you designed it and makes navigation seamless with intuitive gesture controls. First time downloading SuperCards? The app comes with two sample decks, so you can try Study Mode the moment you open it. STUDY MODE Turn your phone sideways and its screen is the same shape as a paper notecard. Study Mode brings the simplicity and versatility of a double-sided 3x5" paper card to your mobile device—how you use it is up to you. • Swipe left or right to move through the deck • Double-tap to flip a card • Flick a card away to remove it from the session, and shake to bring it back • Swipe down to see your progress and study time • No scrolling, no notifications, nothing else competing for your attention CARDS THAT LOOK THE WAY YOU MADE THEM Cards are designed on the Mac, where each side is a freeform canvas. On your iPhone they appear just as you designed them, with contents that can include: • Rich text with fonts, colors, highlights, and inline code • Images • Code blocks with syntax highlighting • Math equations FOR ANYTHING WORTH REMEMBERING Vocabulary and exam flashcards. Sales objections and product specs. Playbooks, recipes, chord charts, the lines of a speech. If it fits on a notecard, it fits in SuperCards. HOW DECKS GET TO YOUR IPHONE • iCloud: decks you make in SuperCards for Mac appear in your Library automatically through your own iCloud Drive • Shared files: add a .supercards deck that someone sends you by AirDrop, Messages, Mail or Files Decks are created and edited in SuperCards for Mac, a free download at supercards.io/download. This app is for studying them. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No tracking. Your decks are files stored in your own iCloud Drive or on your iPhone. They never reach our servers and we can't see them.
