Ebbinghaus is a flash card application with an iTunes-like interface.
An easy to use interface
Organize your cards in decks, folders and smart decks. When selecting a deck, it‘s cards will be shown in a table. Each card has a progress indicator so that you see your overall performance at a glance.
A wonderful way to study
Select the deck and press "Study". It is that easy. Ebbinghaus will show you the cards one by one. You can type in your answer and Ebbinghaus will automatically detect whether your answer is right or wrong.
Smart decks
Smart decks allow you to specify a set of rules that determine which cards the deck will contain. For example, you could have a smart deck that always contains cards you recently studied and answered wrong.
“Ebbinghaus is awesome.”

LaTeX formulas
Ebbinghaus comes with a formula editor. The formula editor lets you create graphical formulas by typing in a LaTeX style text. For example, you can then drop the formula on any card. That‘s the best way to learn formulas of nearly any complexity.
Exporting to iPhoto
Do you own an iPod or an iPhone? Great! Ebbinghaus lets you export decks as a series of images directly to iPhoto with just a few clicks. You can then use iTunes to sync them onto your iPod or iPhone and study on the go.

@dB247365: You have to create a new deck and then start adding cards to that deck. Each card has a front and a back, like a real card. The text can be entered in the table view or in the text views.

well I’m happy with ProVoc. It is free and has a lot of different language files.

John, I guess you said it all! No other comments?

Well I’ve got one.
How would you get the text into this app?
Copy and paste each question and answer?
I read the product website. I didn’t see an import option. Perhaps I’m missing the obvious.
