Snap your textbook. Then just remember it. Making flashcards by hand is a chore—and when your exam is close, it’s hard to know if you’ll ever finish in time. FlashSnapCards eases both of those at once. Photograph the page, crop the part you want, and you’ve got a card. A schedule that counts back from your exam date then shows you just today’s share. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Photo flashcards — snap your textbook or notes and crop only what you want to learn - Or type them — question on the front, answer on the back; photos or text, your call - Exam countdown & finish forecast — see at a glance if you’re on pace to finish in time - Smart review timing — cards come back right before you’d forget them (spaced repetition) - Detailed stats — your forecast breakdown, the next 7 days of reviews, and retention - Edit & delete cards — fix a typo anytime - English and Japanese On supported devices, a short word of encouragement appears at study milestones, generated on-device (Apple Intelligence devices only; nothing is sent online). WHO IT’S FOR - Students facing a mountain of facts before an exam - Working adults studying for a certification in spare moments - Anyone memorizing heavy material—anatomy, law, vocabulary, and more - People who’ve tried to keep a flashcard habit and stopped PRIVACY & PEACE OF MIND - No account needed—start in seconds - Your cards and study data stay on your device - Photos are used only to create your cards
