I wrote a free spaced-repetition app for iOS a while back:

My plan was to release packs of things to memorize (e.g. Famous Quotes, Ten Commandments, etc.), but with 0-10 downloads a week, I just gave up on it. If there's some interest, I'll consider releasing an update.

- aabajian 12y agoNice, haha, there's probably a dozen or so such apps. My motivation was to make an app that pings me when it's time to remember a certain item. So I could be anywhere and all of a sudden I'd get a message, "Propranolol (INN) is a sympatholytic non-selective beta blocker". I was in med school at the time.
- gingerlime 12y agoAt Kenhub[0], we built an anatomy learning platform that uses spaced repetition. The algorithm might not be as elaborate, but the basic concept is the same. In our case, it's a little different from a flashcard system, because anatomy structures are typically grouped and asked together (e.g. choose the right term from the following images, choose the correct term in the picture from the following list etc). There's also more complex topics such as origin, insertion, innervation, function - which covers the way anatomy structures 'interact' (e.g. this muscle flexes the arm...).
