RemNote review

RemNote is the most study-focused app on this list. Instead of copying notes into a separate flashcard tool, students write notes and mark parts of them as flashcards, which RemNote schedules with spaced repetition. The free plan is generous where it matters, with unlimited notes, flashcards and synced devices, but it caps annotated PDFs at 3, image occlusion at 5 images, handwritten documents at 1 and the Exam Scheduler at 1 exam. Pro, at $8 per month billed $96 yearly, removes those caps and includes 1,000 AI credits. Pro with AI, at $18 per month billed $216 yearly, adds a Lecture Recorder, AI flashcards, quizzes and summaries from PDFs, and 20,000 credits. Its pricing page features testimonials from medical students, but it is a heavier tool than Notion or OneNote for general class notes, and the card syntax needs some practice.
