(5 stars)So far this is the best I think. But it could be better. I've been using Flashcard Deluxe for one more years, and it helped me memorized 10000+ English words. I cannot imagine how I could accomplish that without it. Now it is the app I am using most frequently. But I think it could be little better. For example, new words need to review more times, actually, I think it is better to treat new words particularly. Indispensable (5 stars) Got me through Arabic DLI with 3 kids 2 dogs a wife that was pregnant for half of it. First time go! Amazing Wonderful, wonderful (5 stars) This app blows away all the competition among flash card apps. It has advanced learning modes, audio clips, a spelling mode, and easy synchronization - what else could a student want?
