Master ABRSM music theory vocabulary the smart way. ForteDeck is a flashcard app built for the Italian, French, and German musical terms that appear on every ABRSM grade theory exam. With native audio pronunciation for every term and a Leitner spaced-repetition system, it gets vocabulary out of your textbook and into your long-term memory. WHO IT'S FOR β’ Piano, voice, string, and wind students prepping ABRSM Grade 1β5 theory exams β’ Music teachers building a vocabulary curriculum for their students β’ Anyone reading Italian-marked scores who wants to hear the words said correctly HOW IT WORKS Each card shows a term β crescendo, con fuoco, Γ demi-voix β on one side and the definition on the other. Tap the speaker icon to hear it spoken. Mark whether you got it right, and the Leitner box system schedules when you'll see it again: known terms move up and surface less often; missed terms come back tomorrow. No grinding through cards you already know. FEATURES β’ 185 ABRSM Grade 1β5 terms covering Italian, French, and German β’ Audio pronunciation for every term, every grade β’ Leitner box progression with five levels and automatic scheduling β’ Per-grade study sessions and progress tracking β’ Per-grade reset for re-studying from scratch β’ Works fully offline after first download β’ No account, no signup, no personalized tracking β’ Optional one-time $2.99 unlock to remove banner ads (Restore Purchases supported) PRIVACY No accounts.

ABOUT Built for daily 5-minute practice sessions that actually stick. Designed by a developer who got tired of forgetting poco a poco crescendo halfway through a Bach prelude.
