Traditional flashcard apps require constant screen interaction, making them impractical for many daily activities. Audio Flash solves this problem by offering a truly hands-free learning experience that lets you study while walking, exercising, cooking, or during any activity where your hands are occupied but your mind is free to learn.

Intuitive and effective

The Audio Flash website makes it incredibly simple to create audio-only flashcards, and the iOS app gives you an intuitive interface to study in an optimized way. The combination is exactly what's needed to maximize your study time and minimize your screen time. We accomplish this with the following features.

Anki Integration

One of Audio Flash's standout features is its seamless integration with Anki, the world's most popular traditional flashcards app. You can import your existing Anki collections directly into Audio Flash, converting your visual cards into audio format. This means you can continue using your carefully curated Anki decks while enjoying the benefits of hands-free audio learning.

AI-Generated Content

Audio Flash also makes it painlessly easy to import flashcards from your existing content. Use any LLM to generate question-answer pairs, then import them into Audio Flash and enjoy them hands-free, offline on your device.

QR Code Import

After you've created your flashcards, you can efficiently scan a QR code to import them into the Audio Flash app on your device.

Hands-free autoplay

Audio Flash automatically plays through all cards due for studying that day, which means you don't have to look at your screen or use your hands to study.

Text-to-Speech Technology

Audio Flash uses the most up-to-date iOS text-to-speech technology to play clear audio for all your flashcards. This also allows you to download premium and enhanced voices from Apple for even more natural sounding speech, making your study sessions more engaging and easier to follow.

Voice Recognition

Audio Flash leverages iOS advanced voice recognition combined with a machine learning model for handling slightly varied pronunciations. This ensures that your spoken answers are accurately recognized even when you pronounce words differently or have varying speech patterns.

Spaced Repetition

Audio Flash leverages the FSRS (Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler) algorithm, a scientifically-proven method that optimizes your review schedule for maximum retention. The algorithm learns from your performance and adjusts the timing of reviews to ensure you see cards exactly when you need to see them—not too early, not too late. This means you'll remember more while studying less.

Offline first

All of Audio Flash's features work on your device without a network connection. That means you can study while off the grid out in nature, and we don't have any slow network requests to make. Your flashcards, study progress, and voice recognition all function perfectly whether you're connected or not.
