digital flashcards

App-based memory aids

Digital flashcards are electronic versions of paper study cards, typically displaying a question or term on one side and the answer on the other.

Apps and websites offer features impossible with paper: spaced repetition algorithms that schedule reviews, progress tracking, and shared decks.

I used digital flashcards to study for the bar exam.
