Build your own flashcard decks and study them with flip animations and progress tracking.
Step-by-Step Guide
Navigate to Flashcards — Open any document and find the Flashcards section, or go directly to the Flashcards tab in your dashboard.
Create Cards — Add a question on the front and answer on the back. Keep cards focused on single concepts for best results. Tip: The best flashcards test one specific fact or concept per card.
Organize by Deck — Group related flashcards together by subject or topic for focused study sessions.
Study with Flip Mode — Review cards one at a time. Try to recall the answer before flipping to check. Tip: Say the answer out loud before flipping - this engages more of your brain.
Track Your Progress — VoiceBrief tracks which cards you've mastered and which need more review.
