About Mindframes Flashcards

IF YOU WANT TO EFFICIENTLY MEMORIZE large amounts of information, this flashcard app may be for you! It is based on the Leitner system and is designed to minimize the time it takes you to achieve long-term memory.

CARDS SORTED BASED ON TEST OUTCOMES. Cards are classified into five proficiency levels. Correctly answered cards are moved one level to the right, and incorrectly answered cards are moved to the left. This neatly separates unknown cards from those you already know.

EFFICIENT CARD SELECTION MECHANISM. The matrix-style card selection screen enables you to select cards by set and by proficiency level, in any combination you choose. You have fine-grained control over which cards to include in your next review session.

CARD "URGENCY" INDICATED THROUGH COLOR-CODING. Cards are color-coded on a spectrum from green to black based on their test history to indicate how urgently they are in need of review. You always have detailed information about the state of your flashcard deck at your fingertips.

MATHEMATICS WITH LATEX. You can use LaTeX to include mathematics on your cards. LaTeX allows you to easily typeset polynomials, differential equations, integrals, symbolic logic, arrays, matrices and numerous other mathematical expressions.

USE IMAGES, SOUNDS AND VIDEOS. The app supports embedding of image (*.jpg, *.gif and *.png) and video files (*.mp4), allowing you to include photos, drawings, graphs, diagrams, structure charts, movies, animations, or other visual content on your cards. In addition the app supports audio files (*.wav, *.mp3), which can for example be used to memorize the pronunciations of vocabulary items.

SUPPORTS 4-SIDED CARDS. The app supports flashcards with up to four sides, If, for example, you are studying Japanese Kanji, you can separately uncover the Kanji character, the Japanese reading, the Chinese reading, and the English keyword.

IMPORT YOUR OWN FLASHCARDS. The app supports importing your own flashcard decks in *.csv and *.xlsx format (with a *.zip container used for multimedia decks). Using the import functionality requires an in-app purchase.

NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED. Mindframes does not run a back-end server and does not require any registration or login.

WORKS OFFLINE. No internet connection is required to use the app, so you can practice your cards on the subway, on an airplane, or wherever you go.

EXPORT FLASHCARD DECKS TO FILES. Save your flashcard decks to external files that store cards contents, proficiency state, learn history and deck settings. Make backup copies to protect your flashcard data, transfer your decks to other devices or share them with other users.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR STUDY. Versatile settings enable you to change the order in which card sides are displayed, select the number of proficiency levels by which unknown cards are demoted, control the order in which cards are shown during review sessions and change the algorithm for computing card "urgency".

USE SPACED REPETITION. The card selection screen makes it easy for you to select for repetition precisely those cards that you find most difficult to remember, and skip the ones you already know. By repeatedly selecting cards in lower proficiency levels on the left side of the screen, cards that you have already mastered will gradually get excluded from your review sessions, and cards that are difficult for you will show up with ever-increasing frequency.

FREE JŌYŌ KANJI DECK. Mindframes originally started out as a tool to help students memorize the Japanese Kanji - a free Jōyō Kanji deck covering all 2,136 characters, as well as free Hiragana and Katakana decks, are included with the app.
