App Features

  • Adaptive Flashcard System
    Brainscape uses spaced repetition and your own feedback to schedule when you see each flashcard. Instead of bombarding you with everything at once, it finds the sweet spot—showing stuff you struggle with more often, and backing off when you’ve nailed it.

  • Massive Expert-Created Library
    Browse tons of flashcards made by publishers, teachers, and top students. There are decks covering just about every subject, from languages to those big-name tests like MCAT and AP exams.

  • Easy Flashcard Creation
    Build your own decks right in the app with just text, or go wild and throw in images and audio clips. You can keep your sets private, share them with classmates, or even collaborate on them in real time.

  • Straightforward Progress Tracking
    You rate how well you know each fact on a scale. The app handles the rest, adjusting its reminders so your brain gets just the right amount of practice.

  • Flexible Learning On Any Device
    Brainscape: Smarter Flashcards is great whether you’re on your phone, tablet, or checking things out on your laptop (yes, it works easily on BlueStacks too).

  • Community Knowledge
    Explore flashcards crafted by peers all over the world—use their work as a shortcut to new info, or share your own decks if you’re feeling generous.

  • Upgrades for the Power User
    Dig deeper with Pro features: unlock all expert content, shuffle cards both ways, save bookmarks, or keep your study sets for your eyes only if you want more privacy. There are plenty of options to fit how and what you want to learn.
