Most flashcard apps make you build every card by hand. Flewi builds them for you — then shows each one right before you’d forget it. No setup hell, no gamified noise. Just spaced repetition that puts your time where it counts: on what you haven’t learned yet. CARDS BUILT FOR YOU Learning a language? Search a word and Flewi assembles a rich card automatically — translation, gender and plural where it matters, an example sentence, verb conjugation, and natural audio. Smart Add works across German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Turkish, Russian, Ukrainian, and Arabic. SPACED REPETITION THAT WORKS Every card is scheduled by how well you remember it. Recall it easily and it comes back later. Struggle and you see it sooner. Your memory compounds on its own — no schedule to manage, ever. MAKE A CARD FOR ANYTHING Not just vocabulary. The Manual Builder handles whatever you’re studying — math and formulas in real LaTeX, definitions, facts, diagrams — with photos, audio, editable IPA, and rich formatting. Save Card Styles so your layout sticks. SPACES FOR EVERY GOAL Keep each language or subject in its own Space — separate decks, progress, daily goal, and streak. No mixing German vocab with your chemistry cards. ARTICLES THAT STICK A dedicated Article trainer drills der/die/das until the right gender becomes instinct, with Article Tests for German, French, and Spanish. LIBRARY AND COLLECTIONS Build and organize your own decks in Library. Browse curated topic decks in Collections and add them to your Space — for an exam, a job abroad, a trip, or the words that keep escaping you. CLEAN AND FOCUSED No ads, no clutter. Just what you’re learning — across a redesigned Study, Library, Stats, and Profile. Built by someone learning languages in Berlin who got tired of apps that either oversimplified or buried you in setup. Download Flewi and start learning things that last.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: German Chunks at none against Flewi's 1. Flewi's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.6). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
