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!

Brainscape and me <3
I've been using Brainscape on my desktop and phone to learn new vocabulary, and it's been a truly seamless experience. What I value most is the flexibility—I can create as many custom classes and decks as I need, filled with my own words and phrases. It's incredibly easy to set up, and I've been able to make significant progress with my language studies, all without a paid subscription. Highly recommend!
Work and Study
I use Brainscape’s free version, and even that is awesome. I’m working toward a certification for work, and Brainscape makes it easy to turn the slower moments in my day into productive study time. The app makes progress feel simple and tangible—which keeps me motivated, even with ADHD (not always an easy thing!).
Brainscape flashcards easy to use and effective results
Brainscape flashcards have supported my learning for WSET wine qualifications. Using the online cards on a daily basis reinforced my learning and made the facts stick in my memory to use in essay questions and share my wine knowledge. As a result I got a distinction! They are very easy to use on a phone so easy to spend a spare few minutes learning.
Great tool!
Great tool! Used it for different subjects like Wine or languages already.
WSET Diploma
I´m doing my WSET Diploma examination and it´s a lot of stuff to learn. With brainscape it´s a fine method to recap and fix in mind. So I passed the test with distinction...
The app is great and has endless decks…
The app is great and has endless decks to study as well as creating my own. I've used it for years and can identify every country in the world on a map. I'm about halfway through capitals and flags :)
The format is really well thought out
The format is really well thought out. From recurring problem questions to dynamic status indicators and different tactics, it feels like different learning modalities can all be accommodated here.
I’ve been using Brainscape for…
I’ve been using Brainscape for approximately 30 days, and coupled with my online learning platform, it has greatly improved my recollection and memory of vocabulary and phrasing.
For me, it has been an excellent addition to my learning strategy, and has helped me a great deal.
Easy to use and effective.
Good Study Resource
User friendly! Really good platform/app for learning and studying. The only thing I’d like to see is a multiple choice option so you can test yourself that way too! Other than that this is a very solid study tool.
Fantastic flashcard tool with great results!
We use Brainscape for my daughter's multiplication and division facts. She was struggling with recall, but after a few weeks of using Brainscape, we have seen a huge improvement in her instant recall of these facts. It simplifies keeping track of the facts she is confident with and the ones she needs extra repetition of. It is incredibly easy to use, and she loves tracking her progress.
German language Learning
I decided to study German, and the package includes this app. It is user friendly and helps me expand my German vocab along with it’s pronunciation. I highly recommend.
An excellent approach to support learning at many levels
This approach really does work in helping not just embed knowledge but also the ‘why’ of something. I have used it twice now to support qualifications and each time it has been instrumental. For me it doesn’t replace the need to know the core content from the course provider, and that isn’t what I want or expect. What it does do is to support the process of embedding that learning. I have found the ‘mastery score’ to be a good indicator of my level of progress and anticipated outcome.
Best For Exam Prep
Amazing, resource to help revise for my exams. The spaced repetition is the perfect method.
good for studying
Buy the ETS-GRE official flashcards…
I bought the ETS official flashcards from the GRE and it brought me to this website. I've been hooked ever since. It's made learning vocab (my toughest area) fun. I love that this app gives me a streak because it's motivating to maintain it. I also appreciate that this app has 5 categories of mastery to choose from after reviewing each card it breaks down 2 steps further from the classic 3 categories of mastery: new, review, and familiar. If you're studying for the GRE and Verbal is your weakest subject then have NO FEAR, Brainscape is here to help!
Great study tool!
Great for preparing for any of the Praxxis II exams.
