CardLoom · flashcards & study tools
Weaving knowledge
with flashcards and study tools.
A flashcard app that helps you actually remember what you study — and works completely offline. Create, study, and share decks, with no account and no cloud. Everything you make and learn stays private on your device.
Calm, playful, and quick to study
CardLoom on iPhone — the same app is coming to iPad, Mac, Windows, Android, and Linux.
Study smarter, not longer
Smart review that helps it stick, three ways to study, and a deck library that’s entirely yours.
Remember more, cram less
- Smart review brings cards back right before you’d forget
- Tell CardLoom how each card felt: Again · Hard · Good · Easy
- New and review cards mixed into every session
- Spend your time on the cards you don’t know yet
- Builds lasting memory instead of last-minute cramming
Study your way
- Classic mode — see the question, then flip for the answer
- Reverse mode — start from the answer instead
- Matching game — race to pair terms with their answers
- Pause and pick up right where you left off
- See your score at the end of every session

One-time purchase. No subscription.
Buy it on the store you already trust. No account required.
Each platform is a standalone, one-time purchase sold through the store you already trust — and Linux is free. We don’t offer a cross-platform bundle: verifying one would require us to know who you are, and we don’t. Apple’s Universal Purchase means one $9.99 payment covers Mac, iPhone, and iPad.

CardLoom is a tool, not a service
Most study apps charge you every month — and lock your own decks behind a paywall, or hold your progress on their servers. We think that’s the wrong model. You buy CardLoom once and it’s yours. We don’t host your decks, we don’t run servers you depend on, and we don’t have a business model that requires you to keep paying to keep studying. Your purchase never expires and never stops working.
“What you’re learning is your business. CardLoom keeps your decks and your progress private, on your device.”
