Update guide
Version 3.0 (build 9)
This guide covers version 3.0. The current website catalog lists version 2.2.1. Check the App Store for availability on your device; the features below require version 3.0 or later.
Study your own notes with an offline flashcard library, spaced review, and mock exams.
NEW IN 3.0 Search deck titles, questions, answers, and tags. Export a portable deck-library backup through Files, preview a restore, and preserve the previous library before replacing it. Recover unreadable deck, review, or exam-history files explicitly without silently discarding their originals.
STUDY YOUR WAY Use flip-and-grade, multiple choice, typed answers, cloze cards, tags, and custom study sessions. Spaced review uses FSRS-based calculations with app-specific learning steps. Exam Lab builds repeatable practice exams with results and confidence comparisons. Exam Countdown shows model-based recall estimates, not a validated prediction of your exam result.
CREATE FROM NOTES Import screenshots or PDFs for on-device text recognition, use CSV/TSV, or enter cards by hand. Compatible Apple Intelligence devices can generate cards with an on-device language model when available. Otherwise, or for longer material, labeled rule-based generation selects usable notes. Check generated cards against the original sources.
YOUR LIBRARY Included starter decks cover selected geography, arithmetic, elements, language vocabulary, units, roots, geometry, and music topics. They are introductory study aids rather than complete references. Edit cards and tags, keep review activity, and export decks.
BACKUP AND IMPORT DETAILS Deck backups include cards, tags, exam dates, and card schedules. They exclude review history, exam results, reminders, and preferences. Restore replaces the whole deck library after preserving the previous file; separate histories remain unchanged. Backups and recovery exports are unencrypted.
Backups: up to 25 MB, 2,000 decks, and 20,000 cards. CSV: up to 10 MB and 20,000 cards. Note extraction: up to 12 sources; images up to 25 MB and 40 megapixels each, 75 MB total; PDFs up to 50 MB and 50 pages each; up to 500,000 extracted characters per deck.
No account required. iPhone and iPad.

About SnapDecks: Flashcard Maker
SnapDeck turns scattered class material into a study deck you can actually use.
Import a batch of screenshots from Photos or bring in one or more PDFs from Files, then let SnapDeck extract the text and generate clear, grounded flashcards in a simple question-on-front and answer-on-back format.
Built for focused study:
- Batch-process screenshots or PDFs
- Use on-device Vision OCR to pull text from typed or handwritten material
- Generate clean flashcards from notes, textbook excerpts, worksheets, and review packets
- Study one card at a time with tap to reveal, next card, restart, and shuffle
- Keep decks saved locally for quick review later
- No account, no subscription, no clutter
SnapDeck is designed for students who want faster review, stronger retention, and a privacy-first utility they can buy once and keep using.
EXAM COUNTDOWN (NEW IN 2.2)
Put a date on the calendar and SnapDecks answers the only question that matters: will you be ready? A forward simulation of your deck's real FSRS memory model forecasts recall on exam day - if you keep up versus if you stop today - corrected by your own measured Exam Lab overconfidence. The cards that won't survive to exam day get flagged, and one tap rescues them while there's still time.
