Getting started

Start with Memorics

From signing in to your first study session, step by step.

1. Sign in and choose a username

Sign in with Continue with Google. The first time, Memorics asks you to choose a username. It’s how other people see you if you share a topic or add friends, and you can change it later. See Sign in and your username.

2. Add a topic

The app opens on Topics. Choose Add topic (or press N) and give it a name, such as the subject or the lecture you’re studying for. Memorics gives it an icon and a color, which you can change by clicking its tile.

A topic can hold subtopics, for example one per chapter or per week of a lecture. Studying a topic always includes its subtopics. See Topics and subtopics.

3. Write a few cards

Open the topic and choose Add card. Pick what kind of card it is, write it, and save it with Save, or press Ctrl Enter (⌘ Enter on a Mac). The editor stays open with an empty card, so you can write the next one right away.

Not sure which kind of card to use? See The four kinds of cards.

4. Add your material (optional)

On the topic’s Sources tab, add the slides, papers, notes or links you study from. You can read them in Memorics next to the cards you write, and every card can say where it comes from. See Add sources.

5. Study

Choose Study on the topic. Memorics shows you one card at a time: try to remember the answer, reveal it, then say how it went. After a few cards you’ll get the hang of it. See During a session.

6. Come back each day

From now on, Today shows what’s due across all your topics and about how long it takes. Press Study in the middle of the navigation and Memorics goes through all of it, one topic after another. See Today and the day’s session.

If you have an exam coming up, add it under Exams, and Memorics plans its topics so you’re ready on the day. See Add an exam.
