FlashBuddy assists you creating flashcards to learn vocabulary or other stuff. You can edit flashcards with the rich text editor in FlashBuddy. It does also support as many images as you want.

If you want to learn vocabulary you can use the easy to use dict.cc import. Simply type you search string and pick the answers you want.

For an easy import of new flashcards you can use your Mac or Pc and create CSV or Markdown files and import them via iTunes File Sharing, iCloud or Dropbox and other providers on your iOS device. See the short format description for both in FlashBuddy.

FlashBuddy supports subjects, topics and tags for your flashcards. A flashcard is in one subject or topic and can be in many tags. A topic is in a subject or topic.

FlashBuddy uses a spaced repetition system. When you add a flashcard it is in level 0, this is your stash. The first time you learn you flashcard in your daily training it is in level 1 (card for today), when you know the correct answer it is moved to the next level 2 (due in 3 days) and so forth, until the flashcard is in level 6 the last one. All flashcards in this level are considered to be learned.

If you want, you can adjust the durations and level count per subject.

You can also learn certain flashcards by subject, topics or tags without changing or even considering the level they are in.
