Flashcards Maker Recall vs Retrieve

Meet Dumka, a little elephant who never forgets. Feed him a few cards a day, and he'll quietly slide each one back into view right before it would slip your mind. That is how things actually stick, no late-night cramming. This is spaced repetition doing its work: the better you recall a card, the longer the pause before it comes back. Dumka works out those pauses with the SM-2 algorithm, an idea that goes back to Hermann Ebbinghaus and his forgetting curve. You just swipe to say how well you remembered, and the intervals sort themselves out. Build a deck in seconds, or bring the ones you already have: Dumka imports .apkg decks, plus CSV and TXT files. Kanji and HSK characters, medical and nursing terms, exam revision, foreign vocabulary, formulas, faces and names. Whatever you need to keep, a few calm minutes a day is plenty. Your cards live on your device and in your own private iCloud, nowhere else. Come remember things with Dumka the elephant.
