Does anyone know of any software that could create a drill app?

Maybe something that lets you fill in boxes for longer than a card, for memory drill for a small paragraph, or memorizing states and capitols, poetry, that sort of thing.

I'd want to connect it to the peg system of #s.

Connected to code words, it could be useful for drilling code to an object for mentalists.

I hope you can tell what I'm asking for.

I'm sure it exists, but I'm not sure what to search for.

It may be an educator's tool for creating online drills for classes like 'Who invented what?' or 'What year did this happen?'

There are quite a few. Here's some of them:

AnkiDroid Flashcards (Android) / AnkiMobile (iOS) — A classic spaced-repetition flashcard app where you build your own decks. You can add text, images and audio to cards.


Brainscape — Lets you create your own electronic flashcards (your own content), and supports images/sounds and sharing.


StudySmarter — Lets you input your own materials / flashcards and uses spaced-repetition to help with memorization. Good if you want a full revision/study-tool with custom content.


RemNote — A note-taking / study-app that cleverly transforms your own notes into flashcards (with spaced repetition), helping you memorise information you enter yourself.


Personally, I use Anki Web. I have a lot of sets of data (decks) that I study on my laptop and mobile. Also, there are prebuilt "decks" on lots of topics that you can download, edit if necessary and study.

Thanks to the two of you.
Thanks to Mary for asking this valuable question.
And it thanks to Claudio for providing these resources that I did not know existed.

Hi Claudio,

I got a chance to download Anki. It will take a little while to do anything but it seems like it will be great.

Thank you so much.

Hi Mary,

You're welcome! If you run into any issues, feel free to message me—I have plenty of experience with it. I currently have it installed on both Windows and Android.

Their help file is also quite clear.
