What AR Flashcards is
AR Flashcards is an iOS learning app that uses augmented reality to make flashcards interactive for toddlers, preschoolers, and other young learners. Its subjects and earlier apps are combined in one app, with a menu for choosing a module. Alphabet includes 26 animal models that say a letter and animal name when tapped. In Create mode, educators and learners can make flashcards or drawings and augment them with animal models. Ground plane mode places life-sized animals on the floor for viewing and posing alongside them. Space covers eight planets and two dwarf planets with audio and text facts; Apollo 11 cards add a lunar lander activity and facts. Addition has 100 equation cards with animal visuals and answer checking, while AR Portals offers nine narrated trips to real-world locations tied to Abraham Lincoln’s youth in Kentucky and Indiana. The app requires a camera and printable flashcard markers. The free plan includes selected cards and models; paid plans provide all content and priority support. Subscriptions are managed through an Apple App Store account.
