How it works

From a word you spot to a word you own.

1

Capture words anywhere

Reading, browsing or watching – send any word to Vocards and it builds the card for you: translation, a real example sentence and audio pronunciation.

2

Learn by playing

Swipe cards, answer quick quizzes, fill in the gaps. Every card is a small, satisfying move – learning that feels like a game, not homework.

Remember it for good

Five-minute sessions, powered by spaced repetition. Each word comes back right before you’d forget it – no self-grading, no endless pile.
