Paper2Anki is your way to write your flashcards. Goodnotes 5 released a gamechanger in my opinion. You just write your flashcards,and you can study with them. However, I don't like the idea of only learning in Goodnotes and their algorithm needs some work imo. So I decided to create a way to make flashcards in Goodnotes (Or any other notes app) and export them to Anki!

Anki is a program which makes remembering things easy. Because it's a lot more efficient than traditional study methods, you can either greatly decrease your time spent studying, or greatly increase the amount you learn.
Anyone who needs to remember things in their daily life can benefit from Anki. Since it is content-agnostic and supports images, audio, videos and scientific markup (via LaTeX), the possibilities are endless. For example:
Learning a language
Studying for medical and law exams
Memorizing people's names and faces
Brushing up on geography
Mastering long poems
Even practicing guitar chords!
