Description

Brainscape’s SMART FLASHCARDS foster hyper-efficient studying and strong habits to DOUBLE your learning speed, with the strongest implementation of spaced repetition and active recall of any flashcard app on the planet! (And probably in the universe, assuming some super intelligent alien species out there hasn’t beaten us to it.)

With a knowledge bank created by millions of global users and experts, you can FIND, MAKE, and SHARE flashcards anytime, anywhere, and on any device, while keeping all your content meticulously ORGANIZED and seamlessly IN SYNC across web, mobile, and all your devices.

How does it work? Brainscape’s intelligent study system has been designed in accordance with decades of proven cognitive science to help you learn faster and remember longer than with any other flashcard app. (And we don’t waste time on games. Our flashcards are for serious learners.)

Brainscape distills any subject down into bite-sized facts (neatly organized into decks and classes), which are posed as question-and-answer pairs, compelling you to actively recall information from scratch. You then rate how well you know each concept on a scale of 1 to 5, and Brainscape determines the perfect time interval at which to repeat that flashcard again.

If you know the answer well, you’ll see that flashcard less often; if you don’t know it well, you’ll see it again and again, at frequent intervals, until it’s deeply ingrained into your brain. And it’s this totally unique combination of active recall, self-assessment (metacognition), and spaced repetition that is scientifically proven to significantly slash your required study time!

Where do all of Brainscape’s awesome flashcards come from? Three places:

THE WORLD’S TOP EXPERTS. Brainscape partners with top publishers, schools, and educators to create comprehensive collections of certified flashcards for a diverse array of subjects, from foreign languages (we are the best language-learning tool in the world) to high-stakes exams like the AP series, MBE (bar exam), Series 7, NCLEX, MCAT, and more.

YOUR PEERS. Top students, professors, teachers, tutorpreneurs, and businesses around the world have created over 1 million subjects that are available to search on Brainscape’s Knowledge Genome.

YOU! You can easily create and organize thousands of multimedia flashcards featuring text, images, and even audio files, both on Brainscape’s website AND within the app itself. You can also share your decks with your classmates and collaboratively develop content together.

How much does it cost? Creating and sharing great text flashcards is FREE. (Woohoo! And sorry, we do have to charge for image creation for security reasons.) And for unlimited access to ALL of Brainscape's user-generated and premium, expert-curated content, as well as optional features, like bookmarks and card reversibility, you can upgrade to Pro for $19.99 (monthly), $59.99 (every 6 months), or $95.99 (annually). Alternatively, you can unlock a LIFETIME of learning with Brainscape for a one-time cost of only $199.99 American dolla billz.

The fine print: The three recurring subscriptions (monthly, semiannual, and annual) will renew automatically within 24 hours before the end of the current period, unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the period. You can cancel auto-renewal any time by going to Account Settings, and the cancellation will apply after the active subscription period is complete. Go ahead and learn more about our Terms and Privacy Policy at brainscape.com/terms.

What’s on the horizon? It’s our vision to empower everyone, everywhere to rise to the challenge of personalized forever-learning. And for this reason, we love hearing from our community of users: it’s through your feedback that we can continue to innovate our learning platform to be more convenient, efficient, and even fun and social to use!

Sehr nützliche App

Benutze diese App inzwischen seit Jahren, zuerst während des Bachelors und nun auch im Master. Ich bin sehr zufrieden! Man kann damit karteikartengeeiegneten Stoff sehr gut lernen, dazu sieht sie schön aus und hat viele praktische Features! Wenn man den riesigen Aufwand des Programmierens wertschätzt, sollte man auch kein Problem damit haben, ein paar Euro den Entwicklern zukommen zu lassen. Wie 'wenig' sind 5€, wenn man sich eine Packung Kippen oder sonst was kauft.

Algorithmus Top, Editor Flop, keine Benachrichtigung

Der Algorithmus und das Grundkonzept der App ist wirklich einmalig😎😍, wäre da nicht dieser viel zu kryptische und umständlich Editor. 😔🤯 Das machen andere Apps aus dieser Kategorie eindeutig besser. Brainscape selbst beschreibt auf der Website wie wichtig Farben beim lernen sind, bieten aber die Textgestaltung nur unheimlich kompliziert und viel zu „programmier-lästig“ über HTML Quellcode an. Somit brauch man immer mindestens ein Fremd-Tool um Schriftart und Farbe anzupassen. 🤬🤯 Dabei kann man echt Kopfschmerzen bekommen. Als User möchte ich das meine Karteikarten EINFACH erstellen, die Schriftart und Farbe EINFACH ändern können und nicht schon beim erstellen so viel Energie investieren müssen🤯, dass ich dann keine mehr zum Lernen habe😔, worin bei Brainscape nämlich das eigentlich Potenzial liegt! 😍🥰 Ich hoffe INSTÄNDIG, dass Brainscape dieses Problem erkennt und SO SCHNELL WIE NUR MÖGLICH, einen EINFACHEN Editor implementiert. 🙏🙏🙏 Dann kann ich mich auch über die Lifetime Version freuen. 💡 Was ebenfalls fehlt, ist eine Lern-Benachrichtigung, 💭 am besten an den Algorithmus angepasst, so dass man effektiv lernt, weil die Karten zur richtigen Zeit (manchmal schon nach 4 h, statt erst am nächsten Tag) gelernt werden sollten und können. PPS. Die Rate Funktion aus der App heraus funktioniert wohl auch nicht.

Bisher beste Lernapp

Habe bereits einige Apps zum intermittierenden Lernen getestet inkl. meinen vorherigen Spitzenreiter Anki. Jedoch kommt keiner der Testkandidaten an Brainscape in seiner Gesamtheit heran. Anki kommt Brainscape zwar sehr nahe und hat teilweise sogar ausgereiftere Features, ist aber die Bedienung betreffend ein Graus, unnötig kompliziert und daher häufig nicht intuitiv nutzbar.
Beide ermöglichen das Erstellen volumenreicher Lernkarten die über die Dimensionen gemeiner Vokabelkarten weit hinausreichen.
