Why we expect it: Clear lock screen flashcard concept, thoughtful FSRS scheduling, test-date planning and well-presented widgets make a compelling debut.

In short

Terminus: Flashcard Maker shows your own flashcards on your Lock Screen, asking one term each time you pick up your phone. It is aimed at students preparing for tests, with sets that can carry a test date and spread card reviews across the days left. One notable point is that it schedules cards with FSRS, an open spaced repetition model, and the app is free with no sign-up.

About

Terminus puts your own flashcards on your Lock Screen. Each time you pick up your phone, a card asks you a term. Think of the answer, tap to check it, then tap Again or Knew it. You never open the app.

MAKE A SET IN SECONDS Paste the list you already have, from Notes, a spreadsheet or another app's text export. Terminus reads one card per line and splits each line at a tab, a dash or a comma. Or type the cards yourself, or say "Hey Siri, add a card to Terminus".

READY BY YOUR TEST DATE Give a set its test date. Terminus fits the reviews of every card into the days you have left, so each card comes back before the test. Each set shows how ready you are: the share of its cards you would likely remember today.

REMEMBER IT FOR REAL Terminus schedules each card with FSRS, an open spaced repetition model. The card you are about to forget comes first. A card you miss comes back within 10 minutes. A right answer moves you on by itself; a wrong one waits so you can look at it.

SEE HOW WELL YOU KNOW EACH WORD A ring on every card shows its strength, from New to Known, and when it comes back. Filter a set to Due, New, Still learning or Known, and study just those.

WIDGETS THAT KNOW WHEN YOU ARE DONE Widgets for the Lock Screen and the Home Screen, on iPhone and iPad. Answer right on the widget. When nothing is due, the widget shows today's count, when the next cards come back, and Learn 5 more. It goes back to your cards by itself when they are due.

A SMALL DAILY GOAL Set a goal of 5 to 30 words a day. Go past it and Terminus counts the extra. Your streak gets one free freeze each week.
