What Encodr can do - a complete feature overview

Every part of Encodr in one place - scheduling, card types, where decks come from, progress tracking, and the free tools - grouped by what each piece is actually for.

Encodr has grown into more than a flashcard app, and most of it doesn't show up unless you go looking for it. Here's everything, grouped by what each piece is actually for.

Scheduling: the part that decides what you see today

The core is a fixed-interval spaced-repetition scheduler - what spaced repetition actually does covers the mechanism, and how Encodr's scheduler decides what to show you today covers exactly how a card moves through it. On top of that, daily new-card and review limits let you cap how fast a class grows per day, separately from how many due reviews you clear.

Where you actually study

Cards live in a scroll feed instead of a desktop session - inside the feed: how studying becomes a scroll covers why that matters more than it sounds. Search and For You surface what to study next without you having to decide every time, and everything works fully offline - see why offline study matters.

Card types and how you answer

Encodr isn't just flip cards. Multiple choice, true/false, cloze, typed answers, and explain-style cards are all supported - flip cards, multiple choice, and typed answers and fill-in-the-blank vs. multiple choice flashcards cover when each format actually helps. Typed answers are graded for real, not just self-reported - see how Encodr grades typed answers - and studying by voice covers hands-free review on mobile.

Where your decks come from

Four ways to get content into Encodr: build your own, import an existing Anki deck (.apkg, progress carries over - see importing Anki decks into Encodr), pull from the curated Library of source-cited classes and books (the Library: classes, courses, and books), or connect an AI to build and edit decks for you (connect an AI to build your decks). Curated classes vs. building your own deck covers the trade-off, and every curated card traces back to a real source - see sources and citations in Encodr.

Knowing what you don't know

Encodr keeps three separate signals on trouble spots instead of one vague number: weak cards (early warning), missed cards (persistent trouble), and flagged cards (what you told it yourself) - see weak, missed, and flagged. Progress and streaks are covered in what Encodr's achievements actually measure, and streak celebrations and session moments covers how a win gets surfaced the moment it happens instead of only at the end of a session.

Studying with other people

Share a class with a single access code instead of exporting or re-teaching content from scratch - see sharing a class with an access code.

Free tools, no login required

Outside the app itself, Encodr publishes free calculators for planning study time and grades: the study schedule generator, study load planner, retention curve simulator, final grade calculator, GPA calculator, and a set of MCAT-specific tools including the MCAT score predictor and CARS timing calculator - the full set is at encodr.app/tools.

Where this fits against everything else

For how all of this stacks up against Anki, Quizlet, SuperMemo, AI generators, and the rest of the field, see best flashcard apps, compared.

Encodr turns this into a habit: study anything in a feed, and it schedules the rest.
