About this app

Learn the flags of all 195 countries of the world, a few minutes a day. FlagWise builds a course tailored to your results: it brings each flag back just before it would slip your mind, gives extra practice to the look-alikes you mix up and moves on from easy cards to a choice among the six most similar flags when you are ready. One swipe or one tap per question, no typing needed. Learning works offline, without an account and without ads.

A COURSE TAILORED TO YOUR RESULTS
• Optional MindScan: 8 quick tasks (about 2 minutes) set up how you start. You can skip it.
• After that your own answers adjust the course: new flags a day, lesson length, how similar the wrong options are
• Reviews come back just before a flag would slip your mind
• You can see the five numbers behind your course and change them yourself

ONE GESTURE PER QUESTION
• Swipe cards: does the flag go with the country?
• Pick one of four, later one of the six most similar flags or names
• A right answer moves on by itself; after a miss you look as long as you like
• Near twins like Chad and Romania or Indonesia and Monaco get practised side by side
• Typing the names is there for advanced learners who want it

EVERY DAY A LITTLE
• Your Nemesis: the five flags you miss most, and Fix in 60 s
• Daily Flag: guess the flag of the day tile by tile. The same flag for everyone; share your result as a grid of squares
• A home-screen widget: a random flag with its name and Next for another one, today's flag to guess, or your Nemesis
• A friendly daily reminder and a gentle note after a few days away, only if you switch them on

ATLAS, MAP AND MEDALS
• An atlas of all 195 flags in their real shapes: search, continents, colours, look-alikes and 23 flag stories
• A map where every country is one tile that lights up when you master its flag
• Bronze, silver, gold and platinum medals for every continent, achievements and a passport full of stamps
• A Mind Card with your type (Detail Detective, Cartographer, Storyteller, Sprinter or Collector) and five numbers from your results, without your name, ready to share

MADE FOR EVERYONE FROM 9 UP
• No ads, no account, no sign-in and no data collected: your progress stays on your phone
• Learning works offline
• TalkBack, large text and dark mode
• 10 languages: English, Czech, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Japanese and Korean, on phones and tablets

FlagWise is free, with every feature. Grown-ups who like it can buy the developer a coffee: the cup at the top of the main screens, or More, under For parents and supporters. A coffee unlocks nothing: the whole app is free for everyone.
