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.

• Tells you exactly which marks you missed, what would have earned them, and how to phrase it next time
• Explains any concept — leaders, ideology, treaties, turning points — three different ways until one lands
• Chats one-on-one when you're stuck — patient, no judgment, no waiting for office hours
• Marks entire mock exams in seconds with mark-by-mark commentary on every response

• Stats per module so you know where to focus the next 30 minutes

• Phone-first design — designed to fit a 15-minute revision window on the bus
• Notes are short, structured, exam-relevant — never padding
• Multiple app icon options so it doesn't blend in with every other study app
• Universal: works on iPhone and iPad (Apple Silicon Mac too)

PRICING
• The app: one-time purchase. Everything in "THE FULL SYLLABUS" stays unlocked forever — yours to keep.
• Amy Live ($4.99/mo): unlocks Amy's AI marking, chat, and explainers — month-to-month, cancel any time
• Crunch Time ($9.99/mo): Amy Live + 1.5× the daily AI cap — built for the 4-6 weeks before exams
• Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled. Manage in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

John Hattie's meta-analyses put formative feedback and self-assessment among the highest-impact study habits, with effect sizes of around d = 0.7-1.3 — well above the d ≈ 0.4 average effect of typical teaching. Amy makes that quality of feedback sustainable for every response.

Made by an experienced senior History teacher with deep curriculum and assessment expertise — so Year 12 students have study tools that actually match what examiners look for.

Hideout: Early Reading - Third Rail Games LLC

Hideout: Early Reading
Third Rail Games LLC
Genre: Education
Price: $4.99
Release Date: 08 Apr 2013

Hideout teaches early reading skills using research-based principles and applications, presenting phonic patterns used in context within an expansive set of captivating (and a little silly) mini-games:

-AP (It's stormy and windy outside. Tap the cap and map to zap them away!)
-OP (Visit the pop shop to pop the popcorn til it reaches the top of the bucket!)
-IT (Hit the rocks to split them into bits so they fit into the pit!)
-ET (Catch the pets in the net so they don't get wet; then load them onto a jet!)
-EN (Move the ten hens into the pen where ten men can feed them!)
-AG (Drage the rags into the bags, and then tag each bag!)
-UB (Scrub and rub each cub in the tub until it's clean!)
-IP (Dip the chips and watch the dip drip as you feed the little guys.)
-OCK (Visit the dock to knock over the towers of blocks and rocks, and then put them into the socks!)
-ACK (The snacks are arriving on a track. Stack them on a rack!)
-IN (The pictures arrive in a bin. Pin them each to the wall, and then spin them away!)
-UG (Tug the plug from each jug so the bug can crawl free!)

Letters, sounds, and phonic patterns are introduced and practiced in contexts that are playful and appealing to children, yet give meaning and purpose to the skills they learn. Children practice purposefully sequenced skills and identify word patterns, learning to recognize the words so they can read about what they do and observe. The contexts and activities keep children engaged with constant variety in the way they present and illustrate word meanings. Each captures children’s interest and invites them to read and create words that describe or explain it. Developed at Brigham Young University by those who created and administer the Systematic and Engaging Early Literacy (SEEL) classroom program, Hideout replicates the kind of interactive face-to-face lessons that are taught by SEEL teachers and available on the SEEL website (education.byu.edu/seel).

Hit the Button Maths is an app designed to help develop mental maths and calculation skills.

The app is aimed at 5-11 year olds. There are 166 different game modes of varying difficulty so it is useful throughout the primary school age range. Answer as many questions as possible in minute-long games, or you can now practice without the pressure of a countdown timer. Questions are randomly generated which means it is very replayable.

Six main topics are covered:

* Times tables - up to 10 or 12
* Division - up to 10 or 12
* Square numbers
* Number bonds

* Halving

Between these topics, the four standard arithmetic operations are covered: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

You can create up to 30 player profiles per device to track an individual's scores. If you prefer there's also the option to play as a guest. All data is stored locally on your device so you don't have to worry about privacy issues. We've also made it very easy for children to quickly switch between profiles after playing a game, if they're sharing a device.

After each game, the score achieved is displayed along with the child's high score. Bronze, silver or gold stars and trophies are awarded depending on the score achieved in each game.

Luke Bartolomeo
Genre: Education
Price: $7.99
Release Date: 03 Aug 2011

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.
