Retrieve — native iOS flashcard app, one-time purchase, no subscription

Built Retrieve, a native SwiftUI flashcard app for iOS. Currently in App Store review.

Why it exists: AnkiMobile is powerful but dated and clunky. Brainscape locks its best features behind a subscription. Flashcards Deluxe can't search across all your decks at once. Retrieve fixes all three the real FSRS spaced-repetition algorithm, a Home/Lock Screen widget showing cards due, and cross-deck search built in from day one.

Hey, I'm Scott

Hey all Scott here, based in Nashville. By day I'm not a professional developer, but I've been teaching myself iOS development by building Retrieve, a native flashcard app for iOS.

The short version: I was an Anki user for years but got frustrated with the dated UI, the sync bugs, and the lack of a simple "cards due today" widget. So I decided to build the app I wanted native SwiftUI, the real FSRS spaced-repetition algorithm (not the older SM-2 stuff), a Home/Lock Screen widget, and cross-deck search. Free to use, with a one-time unlock for premium features no subscriptions, ever.
