Ebbinghaus is a simple, focused flashcard app built around the science of spaced repetition – so you remember more in less time, without clutter or distractions.
Create your own decks for any topic (languages, exams, work, hobbies) and let the app handle the review schedule for you, based on Ebbinghaus' classic forgetting curve.
+++ WHY EBBINGHAUS? +++
+ Minimal, distraction-free design: Just your cards. No feeds, gimmicks or noisy UI – ideal for deep focus.
+ Spaced repetition built-in: Cards are automatically scheduled using increasing intervals so you review right before you’re likely to forget.
+ Free review mode: Want an extra run-through before a test? Flip through any deck (shuffled) freely without affecting your spaced-repetition schedule.
+ Progress you can see: A simple chart shows your recall ability over time at different intervals (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32 days), plus lifetime correct vs incorrect cards.
+ Smart reminders: Optional daily notifications per deck so you never miss a review session.
+ Dark mode: Easy on the eyes for late-night study sessions, with a thoughtful dark theme throughout the app.
+ Private by design: Your cards live on your device. No account required.
Whether you’re learning a language, preparing for an exam, or just want a better memory, Ebbinghaus gives you a calm, science-backed way to make what you learn actually stick.
This is a simple flash card app. You do not need an account. You don’t even need Wi-Fi. You’re not bombarded with ads, and I just cannot think the developer for taking the time to create something like this.If possible, could you please update it so I can move decks because they’re in just kind of whatever order I created them, but it would be nice if I could kind of just organize them a little nicer and move them around but other than than that, it’s absolutely perfect! 😊
Very good but I am afraid to lose my cards

It is an amazing app thank you for it. I use it every day and write down all I learn in it. But I am really afraid that I can lose all my cards due to technical problems. Could you please create an option to export my cards out of the app or maybe upload it to my Apple account? It would be grateful.
Nice and simple

The app is great, it’s minimalist and usable offline. I would like it better if there was an option to shuffle the cards in both the Spaced Repetition mode and Free Review mode since the app’s two modes (as far as I know of) currently only present the cards in the order that they were added to the decks. It would also be nice to have the option of studying multiple decks in one session. If these features could be added in an update, that would be great!
Exactly what I needed

I’ve wanted a simple flash card app for so long and this is so perfect! No ads or trying to get you to “upgrade” to something else. Thank you so much for making this! 👏🫶🙏
