Description
SuperMemo is the original software based on the spaced repetition system (SRS) algorithm, designed for maximum efficiency in long-term memorization. It is not a pre-made course but a powerful tool that allows you to create your own flashcards and learning materials. It is renowned for the effectiveness of its algorithm but also notorious for its steep learning curve and dated user interface. This tool is best for highly dedicated, self-directed learners who want ultimate control over their study material.
Drops is a visually engaging app designed to make vocabulary acquisition feel like a game. Through short, five-minute daily sessions, users learn new words by associating them with images and playing quick mini-games. Its strength lies in its focused, microlearning approach, making it an effective supplement for building a word bank. However, the app intentionally omits grammar, sentence structure, and conversational practice, making it unsuitable as a standalone learning tool for achieving fluency.
