ZapCardz

ZapCardz is a flashcard app for iPhone by Valentin Mille. It uses AI to create flashcards suited to a user's study needs, so time goes into studying rather than into writing cards. It is aimed at students learning a new subject, professionals refreshing their knowledge, and anyone curious about a new topic, including people who want to learn a language without a dedicated language app.

Cards can be produced in three ways. The AI generates a set of personalised flashcards for a subject; since version 1.4.6 it can also build flashcards from a user's notes or from text on the clipboard. Cards can also be written by hand for a personal touch. Any card can be updated and customised on the go, and study sessions are interactive, with the user working through the cards rather than reading a static list.

ZapCardz is free to download with in-app purchases, sold as Zap Pack at 4,99 € and 34,99 €. The app requires iOS 17.0 or later and is only for iPhone; the interface is in English. The developer collects identifiers and usage data that are not linked to the user's identity, and the privacy policy is published on the ZapCardz website. The app is 15,5 MB and rated 4+.
