How to Create Flashcards

  1. Type a question in the Front field and the answer in the Back field.
  2. Click Add Card to save it to your deck.
  3. Repeat for each card you want to study — up to 20 cards per session.
  4. Click Edit on any card to modify it, or to remove it.
  5. When your deck is ready, click Study Cards to enter study mode.

How to Study with Flashcards

In study mode, each card shows the question first. Tap or click the card to reveal the answer. Then mark it Got it (you knew the answer) or Still learning (you didn't). After going through all cards, your score shows how many you got right. Click Study Again to repeat the full deck.

The Science of Flashcard Learning

Flashcards work by leveraging active recall — forcing your brain to retrieve information rather than passively re-read it. Studies show active recall is up to 50% more effective at long-term retention than re-reading notes. The most effective flashcard technique is spaced repetition: review cards more frequently when you're struggling and less frequently once you've mastered them. Tools like Anki automate this schedule, but even manual review sessions with flashcards beat passive study methods.
