Description

FlashCards++ is the premier flash cards app for iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. Create cards on your phone, or download text and images flash cards from Quizlet (including private sets and groups!), Flashcard Exchange, or Dropbox. Use FlashCards++ to study any topic, like vocabulary, definitions, grammar (or anything else!) so youll ace the test and also develop long-term memory. Build a database of knowledge and gain real understanding by using FlashCards++ to study every day.

FlashCards++s advanced study system is modeled upon the scientifically-proven SuperMemo spaced repetition algorithm, developed over the past 25 years to make studying efficient and effective. Also use the Smart study mode to quickly learn new cards before a test.

THERE ARE LOTS OF FLASH CARD APPS! WHAT SEPARATES FLASHCARDS++ FROM THE PACK???

NEW! Download private sets and access your groups from Quizlet to get your cards from your class. Most other apps only let you access public sets and no groups.
Import cards from Excel. Most other apps force you to use special file formats which don't work with special characters.
Advanced "spaced repetition" and "smart study" algorithms help you study more efficiently and learn better. Some other apps have "spaced repetition," but the FlashCards++ algorithm is more sophisticated and is based on a more recent version of the SuperMemo research. FlashCards++ will prompt you to study again when it comes time to review your material.
Text-to-speech lets you listen to your vocabulary and learn pronunciation.
Back up your cards to Dropboxhave peace-of-mind that your hard work won't get lost
I am a graduate student who built the app to study foreign languages. I use it every day myself and am always working to make it better!

ABOUT THE APP:

I built FlashCards++ to learn Russian and German vocabulary, but it can be used for anything you want (as long as it is text-based): math, history, GRE, LSAT, and other heavy-duty exams, whatever you like!

Easily study by swiping to switch cards and touching to flip to the back. You can rate your answers on a scale 1-5 (including no score if you dont want to save a score), and also go back and change a score.

Make flash cards on your iPhone or iPod Touch, or import from Quizlet.com, FlashcardExchange.com, or a CSV file (which you can create in Excel or OpenOffice).

FlashCards++ supports all special character sets and Unicode, making it perfect for studying foreign languages.

Quickly search through your cards (both front and back), and edit them even while studying.

FlashCards++ collects data about your study habits as you learn new material and helps you monitor your progress through advanced statistics on both your card sets and individual cards.

If you have any issues, please e-mail flashcardsforiphone@gmail.com before leaving a review. I am always here to help and will work my hardest to resolve any bugs you have. I am also always open to new ideas and feature suggestions.

FlashCards++ is not affiliated nor associated with SuperMemo.

Customer Reviews

Works Good (4 stars)
I'm using to learn a few phrases in German prior to a trip. Functional and easy to use.

Best flash card app (5 stars)
Spend less time studying with equal retention! It's true the build in algorithm is great. Two areas for improvement:
(no longer needed --update corrected both! Thanks!)

These are minor, but I wanted to mention it as you pursue perfection in this application. Thanks!

Add copy/paste feature for images and equations! (4 stars)
This is a great app for studying as many subjects as you like. I use it on a regular basis, but one feature i would LOVE is

a) Built in copy/paste support so that I can paste images when creating a new flashcard.

OR

b) Built-in formula editor or LaTeX support for creating math equations.

Currently I am writing equations in word on my computer, capturing separate images for front and back, converting the
