Anki specifically is a spaced repetition system (SRS) app available for desktop, Android, and iOS. The desktop (AnkiWeb) and Android (AnkiDroid) versions are free, while the iOS (AnkiMobile) version costs money; all three can download from the same freely available Anki-format flash card sets.
For a personal example, I've used Anki, along with a bit of private tutoring from a classmate, to successfully pass Calculus 2 in college the third time with a B+, while the two attempts before without it resulted in an F and a D, respectively.
lol ok yeah and here I am thinking there is an "anki" username on this forum that was using MLS 5g wow dont I feel stupid (and I dont mean that literally I mean that with a funny sense of humor tone) but thanks I guess I can look into it...
