GinkgoNotes

GinkgoNotes: Never forget what you've learned

Users save notes from books, podcasts, articles or other sources, and GinkgoNotes schedules review sessions using the FSRS spaced repetition algorithm, modified to a fixed four-interval schedule. Reviews are delivered via email or Telegram and are designed to take under five seconds each. Notes can be added by link, file upload or import, and links between notes are supported. A missed review triggers a reminder email the next day, and unanswered reminders automatically cancel the note's repetition. Each note's email includes a link to drop the note from repetition.
