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!

Couldn't have done law school without brainscape
Love brainscape genuinely the only way I can study and lock in during finals. It's so easy to make flashcards and the interface/UI is way better than any other flashcard app I have tried. Love the features. The development team is also super responsive and take feedback really well!
It's easy to use.

+ Level of confidence - Pro subscription
I appreciate this application because it allows me to evaluate my mastery based on my confidence. However, I wish it was possible to make a class Private without a Pro subscription. Also, I’d like to be able to make a limited amount of AI flash cards in a month, without a Pro subscription.

Worth the money!
I've struggled to stay motivated while studying for my ASWB exam. I'm so glad I found this app. I've tried others, such as quizlet but it wasn't for me. The study mode on brainscape has helped me remember all the information. I was sold on the AI help with creating flashcards. I was able to add my notes onto the app and AI created flashcards for me in minutes. That definitely cut down on my time. The additional things on the app - the breakdown of how much time I've spent studying, the daily reminder to study, etc. are super helpful. This helps me visually see where I'm at which puts me at ease. Worth the money.
Flash cards have always worked
Flash cards have always worked. Now there’s a way to have flashcards on your phone and accompany you wherever you go. Brainscape is a terrific way to take your lessons with you and whenever you wait for someone or something pull out your flashcards on Brsinscape and use that time to further many mini installments to have information stick in your brain! The only thing in the way is remembering that you have it with you at all times!
They are honestly the best flashcards…
They are honestly the best flashcards app I've tried. The biggest plus for me is that they aren't all up in your face to get you to sign up for premium. And their system is honestly great, it makes you feel like you're studying not playing games.
Easy to develop new lists
Easy to develop new lists. A breeze to enjoy lists to utilize the flashcards of others.
This is a thoughtfully designed format
This is a thoughtfully designed format. With its blend of review questions, progress indicators, and multiple tactics, it effectively supports a wide range of learning styles.
All Needed!
I have been using Brainscape for about three weeks. I have also used other apps such as Anki for reading vocabulary. Please note that Brainscape vocab decks are suggested to me by ETS (the official GRE organizer), so I study their pre-generated flashcards. About the app, though, I really enjoy the confidence-based learning process, the user interface design, and the user friendliness of the app. It totally meets my expectations of a flashcard app, especially with the content provided by ETS.
Flash cards was very helpful to get…
Flash cards was very helpful to get repetition in. also, the ability to target areas of weakness that required more repetition. All in all great coverage of th material. the only constructive feedback would be to bring the QME course up to date with regards to anti bias and labor laws.
