About the rating
Store average 4.76, text average 4.43, 76% five-star reviews one of the most honest ratings in this batch. Criticism is detailed and specific: concrete mechanics like the inability to skip mandatory card ratings, no fixed-count sessions.
Strengths
What users love
- A five-point confidence scale on every card directly drives review frequency this is honest SRS. Cross-platform: easy to create decks in the browser
- Easy to study on your phone.
Weak spots
What users hate
- You can't set a fixed number of cards per session. No text-to-speech. The algorithm sometimes resurfaces cards you just reviewed while ignoring ones you haven't answered.
Who it is for
Students and self-learners with ready-made card sets or who want to build their own. Especially good for people who study on both phone and computer.
