ADHD & executive function

I built this because I couldn't sit down and use my own flashcards.

I have ADHD. I knew how to study well — retrieval practice, spaced repetition, the whole evidence base — and still couldn't reliably get myself into a chair to do it. So I stopped trying to fix the sitting down.

The hard part was never the studying.

A flashcard session asks for four separate things before you review a single card: start it, decide what to work on, sit still, and hold your attention there. If any one of those is expensive for you, the whole thing stalls — and knowing that retrieval practice works does nothing to get you past it.

Most study tools treat that part as free. It isn't, and not only for people with a diagnosis.

What FlashPod takes off the list.

Starting and deciding what to study. Press Study and FlashPod already has your due cards ready. Narrow the subject if you want, but you don't have to set anything up first.
Sitting still. Review happens while you walk, pace or do the dishes. Nothing to hold, nothing to look at.
Holding attention for an hour. A card takes seconds. Five of them counts. So does fifty.
Finishing what you started. Cards you didn't reach are simply still due. There's no broken streak and no unfinished queue sitting there judging you.
Keeping track of any of it. What's next, what's shaky, what's coming up — that's FlashPod's job, not yours.
