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!

Flashcards have helped me in my…
Flashcards have helped me in my studies, I always get high grades thanks to BrainScape, i especially love the rate your knowldege on the flashcard feature.
A great app
A regular to use flashcard app that just about gets the ideal balance between brief, repetitive and user friendly.
Amazing resource
Amazing resource!
I use the app importing csv files that I generate using chat gpt and pdf files of the most recent updates on medical guidelines , so that I can keep myself up to date even if I work so much that I have near to zero time.
Using it for years
Using it for years, it is a bit pricey but it's so worth it. I have passed my dental nursing diploma NEBDE with it, my sedation qualification NEBDN, now I am studying ORAL health science at university and still using this app. It's just very helpful, it has it's pros and cons but if you learn to use it. Life saver. I bought subscription fo life
Flashcards for Language Learning
I only needed text flashcards to learn a new language, so Brainscape was the perfect app. It gave me the flexibility to add flashcards to various categories and the space-repetition feature allows me to learn the words as I needed.
A superior flashcard study app
I love the rating feature in brainscape. This feature along with the percentage trackers really encourage me to study my flashcards regularly. Brainscape is so much better that the popular "Q" flashcard app.
Awesome tool!
This app was great for me as future examenee for Cicerone tests. Flashcards really make a difference on the way the Beer Scholar presents a tool for testers to memorize and actually exercise the knowledge. I even extended the membership after the test to keep using as knowledge base and also to maybe go further into other themes.
A personal resource and tool
Brainscape has a very smart application for learning using flashcards that are color coded to acquisition level so it allows you to learn directly and easily.
This app is the absolute best
This app is the absolute best. As a bar exam repeat taker, I am so glad I found brainscape this time around. It has saved me so much time in terms of preparing my own flashcards and allows me to truly focus on learning and memorizing the material in a strategic way.
Easy to use
Easy to use. You start learning right away. Simple and user-friendly design without distractions
really great flashcards
really great flashcards. helped me a lot in reinforcing my knowledge as well as gain new knowledge. Keep up the good work and thanks again!
Perfect flashcard study app
Perfect flashcard study app, I have now passed tests and achieved accreditation for two different subjects in the banking & payments industry and I'm working on my third. Creating Brainscape flashcards alongside the exam prep programs and adding the quiz questions and answers has been a life saver.
I love all the features that are freely offered, but they could give a little more.
I appreciate how everything is ad-free. On other free flashcard websites there are always SO many ads.
I also love how well the spaced practice part of Brainscape is incorporated into Brainscape, and how they have a Brainscape Academy where I can read all these articles that have all these learning tips and tricks that have helped me so much as a student.
All this is for free!
The only thing that bugs me is that you can't use other Brainscape-certified flashcards(except for something like 3 decks that you can use fully), and after you make 2 classes(in those 2 classes you can study them), you can't study the next class you make. You can study the decks individually, but you can't mix all the decks in a class and study them. It only works for your first 2 classes. You need to pay to get these features.
Edit: What I also dislike is that there's all these things you can do on the mobile app that you can't on the web browser version(for example Smart Study). As someone who doesn't have a phone, that can be frustrating.

The site as a whole is great
The site as a whole is great, only one small problem for me. I feel like there's a disconnection between the online site and the app, like what I learn on the browser site is different to what I learn on the app, despite using the same profile. Otherwise, it has helped me greatly with learning a foreign language on a bigger scale.
