The most effective web and mobile flashcard app.✓ Securely find, create, and share digital flashcards, then optimize studying using proven cognitive science. Perfect for educators and students; school, foreign languages, professional certifications, and more! Brainscape's learning system is based on several decades of cognitive science research into how people learn best. Using a combination of active recall, metacognition, distributed practice, spaced repetition, and interleaving study, Brainscape's algorithm ensures that you are studying each flashcard in the format, pattern, and interval that best optimizes your speed of learning and length of retention. If you're a teacher, professor, tutor, or employee trainer, Brainscape also allows you to easily collaborate with many colleagues (or with students themselves) to create the flashcards, and to track over a dozen different metrics about your students study and mastery patterns. With Brainscape, you can feel confident that your students are studying in the most effective way possible, so you can instead focus on what you're best at!

Giving a high amount of questions in the flashcards helps with covering as much of the material possible. Pretty great app.
Realy great, even on free account
Awesome tool I use for learning a foreign language. After each class, I create a deck with new words, then practice them in the following days. Cards/words you have more problems with appear more often than the ones you're confident about. I would just advise entering new cards on a keyboard, not a touch-screen. Much faster that way. The tablet works great for studying them afterwards. You can do all this without limits on a free account; it gives a lot. Paid one is good for downloading already created premium decks, even though you can also download some free ones as well.
The app has been great
The app has been great. Some of the most helpful tools are only available in a paid subscription, but the free version is still very helpful. Works great in tandem with BaseLang.

Brainscape has become an essential study tool for me. Its spaced‑repetition flashcards are intuitive and effective, helping me retain information more quickly and study with greater confidence. The clean interface and easy deck customization let me tailor sessions to my courses, while progress tracking and smart scheduling keep me motivated and on track. I highly recommend Brainscape to any student who wants to study smarter and improve long‑term retention.
Passed WSET Level 3
The software is amazing. The flashcards are well developed and answers go into depth. I like that I can shuffle easily and review. I passed my WSET level 3 with distinction and I believe Brainscape was a big part of sifting through the information.
It’s been pretty good
It’s been pretty good. If you Use the right format (either a comma or a tab space between sides of the flash card) you don’t need to use the ai tool.

Brainscape - Great Flashcard Experience
Did its job perfectly , made me use it for every test!
Great app
An excellent app, supported me massively in studying sanskrit grammar and building vocabulary
Amazing learning tool.
The flashcards are really good
The flashcards are really good, but whenever I accidentally click, the answer appears before I’ve had a chance to respond, which isn’t ideal. I do like that previously answered questions show up again later because it helps with memorization and extra practice, but I’d love to see more varied versions of the questions instead of the same ones repeating, as that would make the practice even better.

Brainscape experiance in A-Levels
Brainscape is been one of the most useful resource in my A- Level revision , its a great tool for active recap aswell as getting more exposure to the markscheme answers.
Simple, easy, all in one place, spaced repetition
- I love how it does the spaced repetition part for you (maybe it would be even better if Brainscapes could recognise what decks you haven't studied in a while and promt you to study them periodically)
- it is simple and easy to use and I just love how all my flashcards can be digital and in one place and that you can share/collaborate decks (so it's not just me having to make the revision material all the time but I can still benefit from it)
