The Helper writes your cards
Say what you want — "20 cards on Spanish animals" — and read back what it wrote. Nothing lands in your deck without you seeing it first.
- Create flashcards from a description of the deck you want.
- Import from text — paste your notes, or pick a PDF, .txt or .docx.
- Ask for changes to the cards you just made, before you save them.
- Explain a card you keep missing, in plain language.
- Split a card that is quietly testing three things at once.
- Make a mnemonic and save it as the card's hint.
- Tidy a card — fix typos and tighten wording without changing the meaning.
- Find duplicates across your decks — on your device, nothing sent anywhere.
- Study plan — what is due, and how to spend ten minutes on it. Also on your device.
The seven AI skills need a connection and, after your first ten AI-written cards, QuickMem Plus at $4.99 per month. The last two run on your phone and are free.
Five ways to study a card
Every card has a type, and the type decides how you answer it. Pick one when you make the card, or switch it later in the editor.
- Flip: front and back. Turn it over and grade yourself.
- Multiple choice: pick the right answer from up to four. Leave the wrong answers empty and they are filled from other cards in the same deck.
- Type the answer: type it out. Capitals, accents and extra spaces are forgiven.
- True / false: a statement that is either true or false, answered in one tap.
- Fill in the blank: a sentence with one word or phrase hidden, which you type back in.
In the daily review, a card that marks itself counts a right answer as Good and a wrong one as Again. The Helper writes flip cards; any card can be switched to another type in the editor. All five types are free. More on each card type.
What it looks like
The Helper, a nested deck, and a review session.
And then it gets out of your way
Organise what you made, bring what you already have, and study a few minutes a day.
Nested decks
A deck can live inside another deck. Put "Irregular Verbs" and "Food" under "Spanish", and the parent shows the total for everything beneath it. Move a deck and its contents come along — with your progress kept, not reset.
A queue that ends
Spaced repetition schedules each card for about the moment you would forget it, so a deck of 500 is a few minutes a day. The daily queue holds what is due plus a handful of new cards, and then it stops.
Bring your Anki decks
Open an .apkg file and QuickMem reads it — decks, notes, note types and cloze cards, with the images following behind as they upload.
PDFs and notes in, cards out
Pick a PDF, a .txt or a .docx — or paste the text yourself — and the Helper turns it into cards. The file is read on your phone; only its text is sent.
Read aloud
Your phone's own voice reads a card out, with the voice, speed and pitch set the way you like — useful for pronunciation, and for studying with your eyes somewhere else.
Share with friends
Add a friend and share a deck with them, each keeping your own progress. Handy when a class is all revising the same material and only one person has to build it.
Also: images on cards from your camera or gallery, cards cached on your device so a review session survives a dead connection, decks synced between Android and iPhone, and the whole app in 14 languages — it follows whatever your phone is already set to.
