Don’t download competitors. This has it all. If at first you think it doesn’t, keep exploring. This app has more depth and flexibility than the main competitors put together, and it’s completely free. Take it from someone who used a competitor for 18 months and then switched when it became clear this app does so, so much more than what I was using.

Anki is the best SRS. It's infinitely configurable but it's not very user friendly, in a way that is typical of free open-source software. You can't have everything. If you want to deviate from default settings and you're not technically oriented, be prepared to do some googling and be frustrated. I also highly recommend using this app in tandem with a desktop computer in order to make the cards, as it's much easier that way. In spite of those niggles, I couldn't do without it.

Simply the best tool out there to help you lock things into your fragile human memory-meat. Takes a little bit of learning to understand how to properly create cards, but it's worth it. Definitely learn how to create your own decks, although many of the shared decks are good starting points, because the power of this method is using it to focus on the specific things that YOU are having trouble remembering. Get it! Use it! Remember things!
