What’s the difference?
Compare Everycards with Anki, Kahoot! and Quizlet iPhone/iPad apps
You might be interested in how Everycards differs from similar apps. Hopefully this article answers your questions.
In all of these apps, you can make flashcards, study them, and track your progress. You can learn more about their differences from the brief descriptions and table below.
Everycards
Everycards is a simple but versatile flashcard and quiz app. It allows you to both create multi-level learning courses using game elements and simply study existing courses. It’s user-friendly and easy-to-navigate.
Everycards is also inclusive, multilingual and private. Its interface looks very familiar to iPhone and iPad users.
Quizzes in Everycards support multiple correct answers and can include a variety of media types in any combination.
However, Everycards doesn’t yet offer device synchronisation, the written answers or additional learning modes.
Anki
Anki specialises in the spaced repetition system (SRS).
It is an effective method if you not only want to pass exams, but also aim to effectively repeat the material over a long period of time for strong memorisation.
In Anki, you can use all kinds of media, even formulas written in LaTeX format.
Anki however does not offer a quiz mode or group classes. Also, it has a rather specific logic and interaction interface, which will take a long time to master, which could be better spent studying.
Also, you will have to deal with numerous “originals” and “clones” of apps that contain the word Anki in their name.
Kahoot!
The Kahoot! app is best suited for large group lessons in a classroom setting.
With this app, you can either create your own multimedia quizzes on various topics or choose from a selection of ready-made quizzes and broadcast them to multiple players simultaneously.
Of all the apps presented here, Kahoot! creates the most fun and competitive atmosphere.
However, Kahoot! requires an internet connection even for self-study, and its algorithms impose several restrictions that slow down the user experience.
Quizlet
Quizlet is a popular platform not only for card-based activities, but also for textbook solutions.
In addition to quizzes, it has several learning modes suitable for both individual and group learning.
Quizlet has a large collection of flashcards created by regular users, as well as content designed by experts.
However, in the free version of Quizlet, you cannot use images, videos or sounds. You also have a very limited number of free uses for quizzes, textbook solutions, and other features.
The table below compares the differences between each app.
