AnkiMobile Flashcards
Anki Software, LLC
Genre: Education
Price: $39.99
Release Date: 26 May 2010

AnkiMobile is a mobile companion to Anki®, a powerful, intelligent flashcard program that is free, multi-platform, and open-source. Sales of this app support the development of both the computer and mobile version, which is why the app is priced as a computer application.

AnkiMobile was written by the lead developer of Anki and AnkiWeb, and it has been around since 2010. Beware other apps using "Anki" in their name that have sprung up recently - they are not compatible with the rest of the Anki ecosystem, and they offer far fewer features, despite charging expensive subscriptions.

Some of AnkiMobile's features include:

- A free cloud synchronization service that lets you keep your card content synchronized across multiple mobile and computer devices. This makes it easy to add content on a computer and then study it on your mobile, easily keep your study progress current between an iPhone and iPad, and so on.
- The same SM2 and FSRS scheduling algorithms that the computer version of Anki uses, which remind you of material as you're about to forget it.
- A flexible interface designed for smooth and efficient study. You can set up AnkiMobile to perform different actions when you tap or swipe on various parts of the screen, and control which actions appear on the tool buttons.
- Comprehensive graphs and statistics about your studies.
- Support for large card decks - even 100,000+ cards.
- If your cards use images or audio clips, the media is stored on your device, so you can study without an internet connection.
- A powerful search facility that allows you to find cards that match criteria such as 'tagged high priority, answered in the last ten days and not containing the following words', and automatically place them into a deck to study.
- Support for displaying mathematical equations with MathJax, and rendering LaTeX created with the computer version.
- Support for adding images drawn with the Apple Pencil to your cards.

Please note that AnkiMobile is currently intended as a companion to the computer version of Anki, rather than a complete replacement for it. While AnkiMobile is able to display and schedule your cards in the same way the computer version does, certain changes like modifying note types need to be done with the computer software. Add-ons are not supported, so while you can study image occlusion cards created with the computer version, they can not be created within AnkiMobile. For this reason, please start with the computer version of Anki before you think about buying this app.

The cloud synchronization service is optional, and data can also be imported/exported from the app via a USB cable or AirDrop.

Like all apps, AnkiMobile can be purchased once and then used on multiple devices in a household using the same Apple ID. Family sharing is also supported (apart from in India). For information on bulk discounts for educational institutions, please see Apple's Volume Purchase Program.

For more information on AnkiMobile, including a link to the online manual, please have a look at the support page: https://docs.ankimobile.net/support.html. If you have any questions or want to report an issue, please let us know on our support site and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Genre: Education

Flashnote Derby is a fun, effective way for kids to learn to read music through fast-paced note flashcard games.
Perfect for piano, guitar, band, orchestra, and general music students, this teacher-created app turns note recognition into an engaging game that works equally well at home or in music lessons.

————

Learn to Read Music — Fast

Each race is a fast-paced challenge: identify notes correctly as you learn to read music faster and speed your horse toward the finish line. Missed or slow answers allow the other horse to catch up.
After each round, students can review the notes they missed— turning every race into a meaningful learning opportunity.

————

New! Practice Mode (No Timer, No Stress)

Students can now choose a relaxed 'practice mode' with unlimited time for each note.
Perfect for beginners, this mode builds accuracy and confidence before racing competitively.

Multiple Ways to Answer

Players can answer flashcards in a variety of ways:
• Play the note on any instrument. Flashnote Derby listens and recognizes what you play (including transposing instruments).
• Use a MIDI instrument
• Tap on-screen letter names
• Or play notes on the on-screen piano keyboard

————

Fully Customizable for Any Student

Tailor each drill to match your student’s level:
• Treble, bass, alto, or tenor clef
• Select specific note ranges or individual notes
• Add sharps, flats, or full key signatures
• Adjust time limits (or remove them entirely in Practice Mode)
• Expand difficulty all the way up to five-and-a-half ledger lines above and below the staff.

As skills grow, you can increase the challenge. Higher difficulty earns higher scores—keeping students motivated.

————

Multiple themes keep practice fresh

In addition to the classic horse race, students can take flight with the whimsical Pretty Pegasus course, blast through an arcade-style space challenge in Ecliptic Encounter, or switch to the seasonal Reindeer Race during the holidays.

Built for Teachers, Loved by Students

Flashnote Derby is designed to fit easily into lessons:
• Quick to set up and perfect for a 1–2 minute warm-up
• Send homework assignments directly to students
• Track progress automatically
• See which notes need more review

Teachers see real improvement. Students stay engaged. Parents appreciate the progress.

Why Flashnote Derby Works

A little daily practice adds up quickly, and students learn to read music with confidence.

Genre: Education
Price: $2.99
Release Date: 08 Jan 2022

Master-Nav is a progressive COLREGS learning system developed by a Master Mariner. The COLREGS are notoriously difficult to learn and retain — Master-Nav makes it significantly easier through an interactive system built around how your brain actually works.

Instead of guessing through random question banks, Master-Nav guides you step by step through every rule from start to finish. Wrong answers are revisited until the rules stick — properly.

Complex regulations are broken down into learnable chunks — bite-sized sections supported by mnemonics, memory aids and interactive visuals designed around how the brain actually retains information.

Every incorrect answer is shown graphically alongside the correct one — immediately clear, no confusion. And with a single tap, the relevant COLREGS rule is accessible from any question at any time.

Master-Nav covers COLREGS Parts A to D — General, Steering & Sailing, Lights & Shapes and Sound & Light Signals — plus Annex IV Distress Signals. Over 1000 questions in multiple formats, with a dedicated Practice Section that tracks right, wrong and unanswered so you always know where to focus.

COLREGS — the easy way.

Pip and Tim Stage Plus 4 - Learning Logic

Pip and Tim Stage Plus 4
Learning Logic
Genre: Education
Price: $5.99
Release Date: 21 Sep 2015

Little Learners Love Literacy® is a sequenced phonics reading program designed to
give children confidence and success. Each stage has 5 beautifully illustrated books
with real stories about Tim and Pip and their adventures.

Stage Plus 4 fits between Stage 4 & 5. It introduces the graphemes ll, ss, ff as well as
words with ‘s’ for example, dogs and runs.

Stage Plus 4 introduces a new recording feature that allows children to record and
hear themselves read. This is an important step in developing fluency, as it gives
children a reason to reread and record. Fluency is an important literacy skill
requiring accuracy and comprehension.

Stages 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 have professionally recorded and produced audio. However,
Stages Plus 4, 6, & 7 allow children to read and record themselves. Children are now
more confident readers and will benefit from this new recording feature. They will
enjoy checking their accuracy by following the words in the book.

Each book provides vocabulary and comprehension questions.
All words, except the Heart words, can be ‘sounded out’. To do this, children point to
each letter or grapheme, saying the sounds then blending the sounds together to
read the word.

Little Learners Love Literacy Stage Plus 4:

The Little Vet

Sad Tip

No Ned

A Mud Picnic

The Big Wind Day

There are NO tricks in the Little Learner books.

Note: Please make sure to enable the microphone on your device when asked or you will not be able to record anything. Also make sure your device is not set to mute to hear the audio back.
