Why it works
Spaced repetition powered by the open-source FSRS algorithm.
From a page you're staring at to a card you'll remember.
Three steps from a book or dense PDF to something you'll remember.
-
Drop in a book or PDF
Open a textbook, ebook, paper, or lecture slides. Read your way, highlight what matters, and listen with read-aloud.
-
Capture flashcards & notes
Pick cards, key terms, a summary, or an explanation — grounded in what you selected.
-
Review until it sticks
Spaced repetition brings each card back right before you'd forget it. Rate Again, Hard, Good, or Easy, and the schedule adapts — weak spots get extra attention.
When the card goes fuzzy, the page is still there.
The loop is simple. What holds is how study material stays tied to the page you were reading — and a reader built for learning, not just flipping.
Flashcards that quote the page they came from.
Lumlu writes flashcards, key terms, summaries, and explanations from exact quotes — and treats your highlights and notes the same. Every card and note anchors to its page and passage. When a detail slips, one tap puts you back on the source.
A reader built for learning, not just viewing.
Scroll or turn pages, Day or Night. Select any passage and the toolbar is there: highlight, note, make a card, or send it to AI study. When your eyes are done, read-aloud continues word by word — at your own pace.
Watch a page become a memory.
