Pocket Cards

Pocket Cards is spaced repetition that fits in a pocket β a short daily study session that ends when the number reaches zero. Build a deck, add cards by hand, or let the app draft them from pasted notes or a photo of a page. Then study in small sittings. After each answer you grade yourself: Again, Hard, or Easy β and every button shows exactly when that card will come back, so the schedule is never a black box. A proven algorithm decides the timing. Cards you know drift further out. Cards you miss return in minutes. The home screen is a due count and nothing else, because the only job of this app is to make that number reachable in under five minutes a day. Anything the app drafts for you stays a draft until you read it and accept it. Nothing enters your memory on an optimized schedule without a person saying yes first. No streaks. No XP. No confetti. No mascots. Just the cards that are due today.
