Voice-triggered review removes one small friction from a daily habit: opening the app. Swiftflip ships App Shortcuts that work with Siri out of the box and a Shortcuts action library you can build your own automations on top of.
App Shortcuts that work without setup
Four actions are available the moment you install Swiftflip:
- Practice Due Cards: start a session with the cards that are due now
- Check Due Cards: ask how many cards are due without starting a session
- View Decks: open the decks list
- View Insights: open the Insights tab
Say “Hey Siri, practice due cards in Swiftflip” and a session starts. Say “Hey Siri, check due cards in Swiftflip” and Siri reports the count.
Phrasings that work with Siri
Each App Shortcut accepts a few wordings. The English phrases that match without setup:
Practice Due Cards
- “Practice due cards in Swiftflip”
- “Study flashcards in Swiftflip”
- “Review due cards in Swiftflip”
- “Practice in Swiftflip”
Check Due Cards
- “Check due cards in Swiftflip”
- “Due for practice in Swiftflip”
- “What’s due in Swiftflip”
- “Show due cards in Swiftflip”
- “Cards due for review in Swiftflip”
View Decks
- “View decks in Swiftflip”
- “Show decks in Swiftflip”
- “Open decks in Swiftflip”
View Insights
- “View insights in Swiftflip”
- “Show my progress in Swiftflip”
- “Check study statistics in Swiftflip”
Each phrase ships with a Swedish equivalent so Siri works in either language.
Build your own Shortcuts
Swiftflip exposes more actions than the four App Shortcuts above. In the Shortcuts app under the Swiftflip section you can also pick Practice a Specific Deck, where you choose the deck name as a parameter.
From there you can:
- attach a practice session to a Focus mode
- chain actions (open a specific deck, then start practice)
- trigger from time-of-day automations
- add a Shortcut to a Home Screen widget
Why this matters
Spaced repetition rewards consistency. Voice and automation make a daily session something you can trigger with a sentence or a timer rather than navigating into the app. The cards do not change, but the hardest part, starting, gets shorter.
