Genius Flashcards: Pass Your Next Exam Studying for TOEIC, TOEFL, IELTS, JLPT, HSK, the SAT, or USMLE? Stop re-reading your notes for the 47th time. Genius Flashcards pairs AI with spaced-repetition science so you actually remember what you study — and walk into test day ready. AI-GENERATED FLASHCARDS Tell the AI what you're studying — "TOEIC Part 5 verb + preposition pairs," "IELTS academic vocabulary," "JLPT N3 kanji" — and get a polished flashcard set in seconds. No formatting, no typing. IMPORT FROM ANKI, EXCEL & CSV Coming from another app? Bring your decks with you. Import cards from Anki (.apkg), Excel (.xlsx), or CSV, pick which columns go to the front and back, and you're in — up to 5,000 cards at a time. IMPORT FROM PHOTOS & PDFS Turn your handwritten notes, lecture slides, or a textbook chapter into a clean, focused set. Snap a photo or drop a PDF — the AI reads it and builds the cards for you. PASTE A LIST Drop in a list from anywhere — notes, a spreadsheet, ChatGPT — and instantly turn it into flashcards. Just paste, and it's ready to study. SPACED REPETITION The app tracks what you know and schedules each review at the right time. Focus on weak spots, skip what you've already learned. Study less, remember more. STREAKS & DAILY GOALS Build a real habit in the run-up to test day. Daily goals and smart reminders keep you consistent — and rest days don't break your streak. Track progress across iPhone, iPad, and web, with a home screen widget so you stay on top of it. STUDY GROUPS WITH LEADERBOARDS Create a group for your class, prep cohort, or study circle. Share flashcard sets and track everyone's progress on the leaderboard. Friendly competition keeps everyone showing up. FRIENDS KEEP YOU ACCOUNTABLE See your friends' streaks and study activity at a glance. When no one's studied today, you'll get a nudge. Subtle social pressure that turns into real consistency. HUNDREDS OF READY-MADE SETS Browse community sets for the big exams — TOEIC, IELTS, TOEFL, JLPT, HSK, SAT, USMLE — plus languages, science & tech, history, business, and trivia. FLEXIBLE SHARING Keep sets private, share with a link, or publish to the community. Switch any time. CLEAN, CUSTOMIZABLE DESIGN No ads, no pop-ups, no clutter.

FlashHack turns any document or photo of notes into a smart study deck — instantly. Point your camera at a page of handwritten notes, upload a PDF, or snap a photo of a textbook chapter. FlashHack uses AI to read the content and generate high-quality flashcards in seconds. Edit, delete, or add cards to fine-tune your deck before studying. Once your deck is ready, study with spaced repetition (SM-2 algorithm) that schedules reviews based on how well you know each card — so hard cards come back sooner and easy cards fade into the background. Rate each card as Again, Hard, Good, or Easy, and FlashHack handles the rest. Not sure about something? Open Chat Q&A and ask any question about your document. The AI answers based on your uploaded content, so you get relevant, focused answers instead of generic web search results. What you can do in FlashHack: • Scan handwritten notes or printed pages with your camera • Upload PDF documents or images from your gallery • AI instantly generates 10–30 smart flashcards per document • Edit, reorder, add, or delete cards to personalize your deck • Study with flip-card UI and spaced repetition scheduling • Rate each card: Again / Hard / Good / Easy • Track mastered cards and study progress per deck • Chat Q&A: ask AI questions about any deck's content • Chat history saved per deck for reference • Free tier: 3 deck generations per day with ads • Premium: unlimited generations, ad-free, priority AI Subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
