Swiftflip

No account, no tracking

Study without a Swiftflip account, ads or tracking.

No sign-up or HK Softworks-hosted profile. Your decks stay on your devices and sync through your private iCloud.

Your Apple ID is the account.

Decks move through private iCloud sync without a separate Swiftflip login or tracking profile.

Swiftflip is a private flashcard app for Apple devices. Your decks are tied to your Apple ID, with no separate Swiftflip account and no ads.

What private means here

Private means a few defaults:

  • no separate signup flow before you can start studying
  • iCloud sync through your Apple devices
  • export support when you want a backup or migration path
  • study data that stays tied to your devices and Apple ID rather than a separate hosted profile

Optional Cloud AI sends your generation topic, instructions and relevant card text to our service and OpenAI. Swiftflip asks before the first request. See the AI guide and privacy policy.

Spotlight and Siri work with the local library. Apple Watch receives the same iCloud-synced study data.

Language notes, coursework and research prompts stay in your own iCloud.

In daily use

You can create your first deck without setting up an account, and no service sits between you and your data.

Across Apple devices

Swiftflip stays inside the Apple ecosystem:

  • create and review decks on iPhone and iPad
  • edit and organize them on Mac
  • run quick review sessions on Apple Watch
  • keep progress in sync with iCloud

Who it suits

Swiftflip suits you if you want:

  • a flashcard app with no separate account
  • a private alternative to ad-driven study apps
  • a study tool that works offline and still syncs across Apple devices
  • a product with an export path instead of lock-in

Start with the main Swiftflip page, then read the guides for setup and first steps.

Frequently asked questions.

Does Swiftflip require an account?

No. Swiftflip does not require a separate account. You can use the app directly and rely on iCloud for sync across your Apple devices.

Does Swiftflip store my study data on your servers?

No. Your decks sync through iCloud, and Swiftflip has no hosted account system. The one exception is Cloud AI, the optional Premium card generator. It sends card text to our servers to generate, but we do not store it, and Swiftflip asks before the first request.

Can I back up or export my decks?

Yes. Export your decks to back them up or move them elsewhere.

Can I use Swiftflip offline?

Yes. Your decks live on your devices, so you can keep studying even when you do not have a network connection.
