About this app

Retrieve is a flashcard app built for people who actually want to remember what they study, not another subscription to manage.

SMART SCHEDULING, ZERO SETUP
Retrieve uses a modern, science-backed spaced-repetition algorithm to show you each card right before you're about to forget it. No configuration, no algorithm tuning. Just tap, flip, and grade yourself. Each grade button even shows when you'll see the card next.

BUILD YOUR DECKS YOUR WAY
• Add cards by hand, as basic or fill-in-the-blank (cloze) cards, with photos and tags
• Paste any text and Retrieve detects the format automatically
• Import a CSV or TSV spreadsheet
• Bring in an existing flashcard deck file, including images, tags and notes

IMAGE OCCLUSION, BUILT IN
Turn any photo, like a diagram, a map or a textbook page, into flashcards that hide one label at a time. No add-ons required.

STUDY THE WAY YOU NEED TO
• New cards arrive gradually, 20 per deck per day by default, so a big import never buries you
• Custom Study lets you cram by tag across every deck
• Made a mistake? Undo your last grade
• Daily reminder at the time you choose
• A home screen widget shows how many cards are due today

SEARCH EVERYTHING AT ONCE
Find any card across every deck instantly, right from the main screen.

YOUR DATA, YOUR DEVICE
Everything lives on your phone. No accounts, no analytics, no ads. Export any deck back out as a CSV whenever you want, so your data is never locked in.

ONE PAYMENT. NO SUBSCRIPTION. EVER.
Try Retrieve free with up to 150 cards. When you're ready for unlimited decks and cards, unlock everything with a single one-time purchase. No monthly fees, no recurring charges, ever.
