Knowt is a Quizlet alternative with the most intuitive and effective approach to studying flash cards I’ve seen in any learning platform. You can choose which types of questions you want to see when studying each flash card set, and if you chose multiple, it will introduce each term with a simple true/false or multiple choice answer before testing your active recall with written response questions. Knowt also has intelligent typo detection to mark very close answers as correct, and allows you to override correct answers as incorrect and vice versa.My original review was critical of some recent features that I thought were obstacles to studying and alienated users who wanted to escape from Quizlet’s feature bloat. After I submitted an admittedly whiney support ticket vaguely complaining about my gripes (expecting a bot response or none at all), the CEO reached out to ask for my genuine opinion. We exchanged emails and a patch was rolled out the same day that fixed the issues I had with the new streak and XP systems’ intrusive pop-up notifications. The team behind this app are really passionate about it and are hands-on with real user feedback to an extent that is rare and refreshing in this day and age!

I love the numerous features on Knowt. Like others, Quizlet has gotten ridiculous to work with, and I felt I needed continuous support with flashcards and memorizing. I loved the spaced out repetition on Knowt, which made me feel confident in my materials. I liked how– and this may depend on what you’re studying on there– but I could find all the units of my choice. I could focus on one unit or look at them all. I could do flashcards for the entirety or also search up another section (ex: Supreme Court cases). Because Knowt is on your phone, you can open the app and practice anytime. Everything is in one place and it makes it so easy. My favorite feature might be the MCQ practices, again, I could use it anytime I wanted and it was nice to practice with my friends. Thank you Knowt for being the support I needed!! I hope to see more updates and hopefully I find it just as useful for other APs and IB classes. P.S if you follow Knowt on Instagram you get even more practices! I love how it’s integrated with helpful tips everywhere.

I’m currently using the knowt apps practice exams features because that’s the best way I learn but here are some things I realized. 1. The practice exams are really limited from 8-12 questions at a time which is great but I would like the option to choose how many questions so I can practice like an actual exam. Another problem I have is that since I’m implementing about 19 pages worth of material the AI can’t handle that and they ask the same type of questions from one section consistently while disregarding the 100s of other types of questions they can ask from all the material available . So I then tried to break it up section by section so it’s more digestible for AI and while that helped a ton it’s again the same questions over and over and not asked in a different way and I’m still noticing that some material is still not being asked of me on the practice exams. Which is quite annoying since I enjoy using the practice exams other than the learn method. Overall though the app is great if you want to actually learn the material and have a better understanding but you’ll have more luck writing your own exam and letting the AI work with what you wrote rather than what it’s coming up with.

I think this app is on par with Quizlet especially the free version. I do think that Quizlet has some features Knowt should add. If Knowt added them, it would be better than Quizlet hands down. The one bad thing I have to say about this is app, is when studying and doing multiple choice, it can be difficult. If you have a 2 different questions with same answer, it will pull the answer from both and put as a choice... If you don't pick the one for that question it's counted wrong, even though it's the same answerI still use Quizlet and paid for a year subscription bc I think it edges Knowt out in creating flashcards from PDF/Images.. Quizlet has a feature where you pick your photo of your document and you can highlight to make a flashcard... That feature makes it a little bit better bc the AI on both apps isn't the greatest at reading a document and making flashcards. I think Knowt AI is a little better at reading documents and making cards over Quizlet. But Quizlet has been doing this a long time and it's easier.... Other features that are better are real small but it's what make me use this app...
