Flashcards
Flashcards feature is at the core of the app, and the main way that this app helps you learn.
Spaced Repetition System
Vocarrot uses a spaced repetition algorithm that:
- Shows you words you're struggling with more frequently
- Reduces frequency for words you've mastered
The system prioritizes words with lower scores during practice sessions.
Once you get the word three times correct in a row, we can consider it learned. We can still review it from time to time though.
Practice Interface
The flashcard interface features:
- Swipe left: Mark as "Don't know"
- Keyboard shortcut on desktop: F
- Swipe right: Mark as "Knew"
- Keyboard shortcut on desktop: J
- Tap: Tap to see the answer/translation
- Keyboard shortcut on desktop: SPACE
You can also use the controls on the bottom or keyboard shortcuts if you are on desktop.

Practice a little every day rather than long sessions occasionally.
Be Honest to Yourself: Learning happens when you are honest about your recall ability.
