Cardfox

Features

FROM BOOK TO FLASHCARDS

  • Scan a vocabulary page, pick a photo or open a PDF
  • Cardfox recognizes each word and its translation, even in columns and tilted photos
  • Check, deselect and swap sides before saving
  • Add words from any app: select, share, “Add to Cardfox”
  • No book at hand? Vocabulary suggestions for any language, level (A1 to C1) and topic

LEARN AT THE RIGHT TIME

Cardfox schedules every card with FSRS, a modern spaced repetition algorithm that adapts to your memory. Answer “Again”, “Hard”, “Good” or “Easy” – or just swipe. What you know well comes back less often, what's hard comes back sooner. Set an exam date and Cardfox makes sure everything sticks by then.

STUDY YOUR WAY

  • Flip cards or type the answer
  • Learn in both directions
  • Listening mode: Cardfox reads out each word and its translation – perfect on the go, even with the screen locked
  • Article quiz for der, die, das and other languages
  • Practise your tricky words

PRACTISE YOUR PRONUNCIATION

Hear every word in a natural voice and say it yourself. Cardfox listens, rates your pronunciation and tells you which word to say more clearly. Speech recognition runs on your device.

REMEMBER, DON'T FORGET

  • AI memory aids for the words you keep forgetting
  • Example sentences show how a word is really used
