    Flash cards are a HUGE help for me when learning/memorizing any sjbeuct (and especially new vocabulary). I’ve tried Anki before on just the PC and liked it but missed the ability to just pick up physical cards on the way out the door in the morning. However, I’ve never tried using the Android app sync’d to a web account. I’m going to have to try this as, my handwriting is atrocious and I can definitely type out new vocabulary quicker than I can write it out by hand. I may still prefer a hard-copy of my flash cards but this is definitely something for me to experiment with as an alternative.Thanks for the tip Eoin!Kelly
