I use Brainscape to expand my Spanish vocabulary. The built-in Spanish flashcards are great, I don't need to create any of my own. I love the "rate how much you knew the answer" system that works on a scale. Things I know well, I see less. I like it over DuoLingo because I don't need to practice pronunciation. I just want to know more words. I'd like to know where the words are spoken though. I'd like to focus on the common Mexican words for things but they aren't differentiated. ❤️u Brainscape!

The app gives you what it promises: an easy, practical and simple way to create and study flashcards. The pro option comes with the possibility to download some specific decks from the market - but be careful about that. Some are user made and may contains incorrect statements. The ones made by companies, however, are not always correct also. So, my recommendation is: make your own flash cards. That will help you study and be sure about the statements. The app, again, is awesome. Go for it!

The app helped me memorizing, but it has several errors in the answers and plenty of typos. I contacted the owner with regards to the errors but I did not hear back. The app is helpful if you have the Oncology Nutrition book and can check the answers for accuracy, since all the questions are from the book. I would have liked to be able to make a note to myself on the flashcards noting the correct answers but there is no option to make notes.

If you can run Anki (a free open source flashcard app) and you like to create your own cards for private use then there is no reason to pay for Brainscape. The user interface and navigation is clunky. You have very few options when designing your own cards. I think they made an effort to streamline all cards to make it easier for users to share decks with other users and this severly limits your options when designing cards. A few examples: images can't be pasted into the text field of a card, they have to be attached. Also you can't just create a deck, you have to make up a "class" that the deck should belong to. Another issue is there is no spaced repetition system at all! If you rate a card a level 4 it stays level 4forever?! Then what's the point? I could just type a list of questions in a word document and review them.. It would be the same thing! On the Brainscape blog it says they use a "5-bucked (sic) Confidence-Based Repetition method; works at your own study pace" huh? I thought I was paying you to decide my study pace, so I got to review things BEFORE I forget them..

I love this app. I've always struggled with hand written flashcards, always wanting to edit and rewrite which wastes a lot of time. I also forget to carry them with me at all times. This app allows me to study as little or as much as I have time for. I can optimise my ten minute train commute in the morning and evening without having to rake through my bag looking for notes. It's all right here on my phone! Missing one star due to not being able to specify a colour of cards to study

Do not use this if you want to do actual spaced repetition. What it does is repetition of flash cards. But for me the "spaced" is the important part. They're also good at locking away features to get you to pay (which I did), for example to share my decks. But turns out my "students" also have to pay, and they most likely won't. So that was a waste of money.

Its interface is simple and easy to use. The cons are because audio and images are only for vips.

Amazing app! More than I was looking for. Simple interface and cross platform (I can also use it in my desktop browser).

The PC version is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I like the Android app but it doesn't have the ability to view tbe cards with answers simultaneously which does exist in the PC app. That feature is really useful for studying new terms for the first time. If you can fix this issue, I'll change my review to 5 stars.
