Coming from Anki?
The Anki alternative without plugins or setup
If you already use spaced repetition in Anki, MetraCards keeps the method that works and removes the work of configuring plugins, audio add-ons and manual sync.
Same method. No add-ons, no setup.
You keep the spaced repetition you already know, but audio, sync and the interface come ready.
