I became interested in iDoRecall because it allows learners to easily use the most powerful tool in all of learning–retrieval practice. iDoRecall is unlike most flashcard programs in that it allows learners to easily create cards building directly from the materials under study, which also allows them to easily see the context of the recall.

This is why I use iDoRecall in my own work.

iDoRecall is hands down the most powerful and easy-to-use retrieval practice tool on the market–which means it is a world leader in innovative online educational tools.

about learning

Upload your learning materials

Upload all of your learning materials into your iDoRecall library. Word files, PowerPoints, PDFs, images, media hosted on YouTube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, and much more.

Create linked Flashcards

Read and study your learning files. Watch your educational videos inside iDR. Create flashcards that are linked to every fact, concept, term and formula that you want to remember. We call our linked spaced-repetition flashcards Recalls.

Practice only what you’re about to forget

iDR’s spaced-repetition algorithm will schedule only the recalls for retrieval practice that you are likely getting close to forgetting. This keeps your practice time to a minimum.

Click to see the source if you’re struggling

If you struggle with an answer during retrieval practice, just click the link and the source file will open at the exact relevant location so that you can quickly refresh your memory in the original context.

Create iDR classes and study groups

iDR’s GROUPS feature is the iDoRecall social hub where teachers can create a CLASS and students can create STUDY GROUPS. Here’s the place where you can share learning content files and recalls.

Clone files and recalls from groups

Members of a class or study group can clone learning materials and recalls into their personal accounts to use them there.

Track your knowledge growth

See your personal progress in iDR. Groups can see a leaderboard of their activities. Teachers can see deep metrics of student activities in their iDR classes.

Do you have a mobile app?

iDoRecall is a web application that works in most modern web browsers on all contemporary computers and mobile devices. If your device or browser are vintage, you may have issues because iDoRecall is a very large and complex solution. If you are unsure, we suggest that you give the FREE FOREVER Plan a try.

Can I use iDoRecall for free?

Yes, we have a FREE FOREVER Plan but it does have some limitations such as a max of 200 recalls, 10 files in your LIBRARY and 10 MB of storage. If you hit the ceiling on one of the limits, you will have to delete some items or subscribe.

What is Paddle and why do I see them on my credit card bill?

Paddle.com is our merchant of record. When you subscribe to iDoRecall, you are purchasing the subscription from Paddle, our worldwide reseller. They will apply, collect and remit to the proper authorities any VAT or sales taxes that are applicable. Paddle offers a certain amount of support to our subscribers but if you have any concerns or need support, please do not hesitate to reach us through our chat widget or write to us at support@idorecall.com. We will respond during our waking hours, 7X365.

What if I want to leave iDoRecall, can I take my content with me?

You will be able to download a CSV file of all of your recalls which you should be able to import into several well-known flashcard apps. You cannot download LIBRARY files because of copyright law reasons. So you should maintain your own copy of any files that you upload to iDoRecall.

What are BONUS DAYS?

Bonus Days are a perk offered to iDoRecall users as a reward for performing certain actions which are good for users and which benefit the growth of iDoRecall. When a user performs one of these actions, such as having a practice streak of 15 days in a row or sharing iDoRecall with a friend who then signs up, bonus days will be awarded. A Bonus Day extends the renewal date of your current subscription cycle. As an example, if you are on a monthly subscription that is set to renew in 3 days and you just earned 4 Bonus Days, your renewal date will be changed to 7 days from today. Bonus Days effectively reduce the cost of a subscription. Free Forever users can accumulate Bonus Days too. They will be awarded once a free user eventually subscribes and will extend the next renewal date.

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

You can continue to use iDoRecall until the end of your current subscription cycle. After that, you will be downgraded to the Free Forever Plan. That plan has certain limitations. If you have exceeded those limitations, you will still be able to practice your recalls but you won’t be able to add new files to your LIBRARY or create new recalls.

Will iDoRecall ever sell my data?

NO. We will never ever sell your data. You can delete your data from our servers at any time, right from within your account.

Do you offer student discounts?

Sorry but we don’t routinely offer student discounts. Students are one of our main target markets. We have awarded license grants to indigent learners and we will be developing a more formal plan to scale this program. But we haven’t done that just yet. Our long-term mission as a for-profit business is to utilize a significant portion of our earnings in order to make iDoRecall available for free or for reduced prices to those who cannot afford the service.

It's without a doubt that iDoRecall has been pivotal to my success as both a college student, and aspiring medical worker.

Before iDoRecall I only studied passively by re-reading notes I had and that was if I even studied at all. I had no idea if I was truly using my time well, and my motivation to study was at an all time low. My grades reflected that attitude and I was a mediocre to low-scoring student all throughout High School.

Now that I have a ready to go, flashcard based system that is quizzing me only on what need to learn the most, all of the leg work is done for me. This has personally transformed my academic life, as someone who used to never study and received grades that reflected that, to a 3.7 GPA Honors College student.

Aaron Meil

Undergad student at the University of Texas at San Antonio

iDR is a fantastic study tool! It helped reduce the amount of time I studied, increased my recognition & recall skills and kept me accountable to practice every day - even for only 15 min! You can add diagrams to the flash cards, which saved my hand from cramping, and it was helpful to visually see concepts I struggled with. I also really enjoyed the practice feature, which selects your worst rated cards and reminds you to practice them. This has been an amazing way to enhance my studying and I've been able to achieve higher grades!

Carly S.

B.S. nursing student McMaster University, Canada

IDoRecall is the perfect answer for students who ask, "I studied for two hours, but I bombed the test. What can I do differently?" It helps students chunk the right concepts and then discover and focus on the information that they understand the least in order to build their knowledge. A great learning tool!

Martin Stegemoeller, Ph.D.

Malcom K. and Minda Brachman
Master Teaching Chair at St. Mark's School of Texas

Since using iDoRecall, I know the time I spend studying is not wasted. I am able to recollect the vast majority of the material I have studied over the last few months.

I love how you are able to link a recall to a specific part of your uploaded study materials. You are also able to link to a specific point in a video, or to a webpage. I am a visual learner, and this feature has helped me enormously.

Adele Cotton

Emergency Medicine CMO at Peninsula Health

iDoRecall has changed the way I work and the way I see the world.To summarize, here are the three advantages:

(1) Huge time saver. Indeed, it is now possible to read a book and/or follow a MOOC once and remember the most important concepts for life-thanks to flashcards and IDR's spaced repetition algorithm

(2) Intuition enhancer, because by practicing IDR flashcards daily, the concepts learned come to mind quickly when I need them the most

(3) Creativity booster, because practicing flashcards randomly allows me to connect the dots and generate unexpected ideas.

In sum, I sincerely believe that iDoRecall can have an incredibly positive impact on the education of people who use it consistently.Thanks to iDoRecall

Rassul Kalfane

PhD Candidate in Finance at University of Montpellier

I am a 40 y.o. mom of 3 going back to school in order to earn a Master's degree in Physiotherapy. I have been using iDoRecall since September 2019 and I really enjoy it. Setting up my recalls is a great way to make sure I understand the corpus well, and I get to study them on my iphone during my commute (by bus).My grades have been amazing (A+ all the way!) and I enjoy using the app to study. I give IDoRecall an A+!

Annie Charest

University of Ottawa, Canada

iDR is an essential part of my daily routine and I use it to help me to remember all kinds of things that are important to me. Its spaced repetition feature helps me to retain information that I know I would have forgotten without it. When I do forget something, it is so easy to quickly review the original document to refresh my memory without any wasted effort spent trying to find the original document or the specific relevant passage within that document. iDR eliminates friction points in my studying and allows me to efficiently spend my time either learning the material or reviewing my recalls; not looking for information. With iDR I have created more systematic and organized study habits that provide me a greater sense of confidence that I am keeping up with all of the important information in my life.
