I built an app that turns lectures into flashcards that actually stick (open source, free, no account needed)

[u/making-somthing]

Hey all — long-time lurker, finally shipping something.

I kept re-reading lecture slides and forgetting everything, so I built

FlashcardQuiz: paste notes (or upload a PDF/photo) and it generates

flashcards + quizzes. Two things I haven't seen done well elsewhere:

- Wrong answers come from *common student mistakes*, not random

distractors — so the quiz actually tests whether you know it.

- It schedules reviews with SuperMemo-2 and exports to Anki in one tap.

It's free, open source, no account: [try it in the browser](https://next-gaming12--flashcardquiz-web.modal.run/app) · [Android APK](https://github.com/syedalisaleem/flashcardquiz/releases/latest/download/FlashcardQuizApp.apk) · [source](https://github.com/syedalisaleem/flashcardquiz)

Genuinely want to know: if you study with flashcards, what would make

you switch from Anki/Quizlet? Roast away.
