Questions, answered.
What FlashFeed is, what it costs, and how it works.
What is FlashFeed?
FlashFeed is a free microlearning app for iPhone. It turns big subjects into Knowledge Packs of short cards, quick games and study guides, all in one feed you can scroll when you have a minute. It's on its way to the App Store.
Is FlashFeed free?
Yes. Every pack is free, there are no ads, no subscription, and nothing to buy in the app.
Do I need an account?
No. Open the app and start. Your progress is kept on your device.
What is a Knowledge Pack?
A Knowledge Pack is one subject, split into lessons. Each lesson has short cards for the feed, a written study guide, objectives you can test yourself on, and questions the games draw from. There are 36 packs today, with 20,341 cards across 391 lessons.
What subjects are there?
AI & tech, Money, Mind & habits, Ideas & belief, History & places, Science & numbers, Skills & culture. See all 36 packs.
What games are in the app?
24 short games, including Higher or Lower, Fill the Blank, Type It, Flashcards, Trivia Bet and Word Hunter. Each pack offers the games its content fits.
How does review work?
Get a question wrong in a game and it goes to Review. Answer it right twice and it is retired, so you only drill what you actually missed.
What are Flash Bucks?
Flash Bucks are the app's points. You start with 1,000 and earn 10 for each correct answer, plus a bonus each day you open the app. You can wager them in Trivia Bet, Knowledge Wheel and Buy a Clue. They can't be bought.
Does FlashFeed work offline?
Installed packs, with their pictures and study guides, are saved on your phone, so they keep working without a connection.
Is there an Android version?
Not yet. FlashFeed is built for iPhone.
Who makes the packs?
FlashFeed builds every pack, with AI assistance, and each one passes review before it goes live in the app. A pack based on a book is our own study notes on it, not affiliated with or endorsed by its author or publisher.
What does the app collect about me?
The privacy policy sets out exactly what the app collects and what the servers that deliver packs log.
