Bible Flashcards contains thousands of Greek and Hebrew flashcards to help you learn the alphabet and vocabulary words. Based off of the lessons provided by CrossWire Bible Society’s free FlashCards program.
Please note that in the 2.1.5 update, due to a change in how cards are stored and retrieved1, you will need to clear your learned database through the preferences screen.
Features:
- 16 Lesson Sets, 1315 lessons, and thousands of words/cards in both Greek and Hebrew
- Includes lesson sets used in popular seminary courses. Lesson sets from authors like Bill Mounce (Basics of Biblical Greek)
- Ability to mark cards learned/unlearned
- Ability to choose a random card
- Cards now cycle so that if you are on card 1 and you attempt to go backwards, you are taken to the last card. Likewise if you are on the last card and you attempt to go forwards you are taken to the first card.
- Menus also cycle so that if you hit the back button you will go from the active card view to the lesson chooser to the lesson set chooser and back to the card view.
- Preferences to control settings such as card text size, whether to display learned cards, and a button to remove all learned cards from the internal database.
You can find Bible Flashcards in the Android Marketplace by searching for “Bible Flashcards” or by scanning the barcode below:

- They are no longer stored in escaped Unicode in case you are interested in the technical details. They are now stored in their final encoded form which should translate into faster render times. [↩]

the card cycle, first to second or last, is good. The menu cycle is not so good. I have two devices with the program. One has a home screen button always showing, so I can get out of the program. The other device, once in your program, does NOT have a home showing. All the other apps I have on that device get a nice exit to home screen by using the back button, but in your program, it’s just an endless cycle through card, lesson set, and lesson. The lesson set back button ought to exit the program, or you should provide some other way out. Just my two cents worth. Otherwise, GREAT progam!

I tested bible flashcard 2.1.6 on android 2.2 and 2.2.1. There’s a big problem: Learned cards are still shown – only empty. Let’s say I learned 34 of 35 cards from some chapter. If I proceed most cards will be empty. In the top center it will say for instance for every learned (!) card with number n: “Card n/35 Not learned”. On the top right at the same time “34 learned”. This bug makes the software unfortunatelly practically unusable.

Wonderful program with the exception discussed above in comment 3; I do not go so far as saying its “practically unusable” since you can simply quickly scroll thru all those other blank words that you already know, but would developing a way to TRULY hide those words would be a tremendous improvement…
also I don’t understand the option I have in preferences of “quiz” every so many seconds, does anyone else here understand that?

Good program for Greek, but not much use for Hebrew due to the the pointing never being in the correct place on either an HTC Desire or Samsung Galaxy S2. I’ve looked at other programs that work fine with Hebrew, so hopefully this is fixable soon.

Good program – the Ross Hebrew vocab finishes at lesson 8 – how can I add the rest?

My flashcard application is based on the CrossWire Bible Society’s Flashcard system (http://www.crosswire.org/flashcards/index.jsp) which allows easy creation of lessonsets and lessons, each lesson containing multiple flash cards. If you want to use that to create .flash files that I can import I’ll be happy to add the rest.

Hi Wes, I looked at the crosswire site, and tried the flashcards program, but I can’t see how to create .flash files. Can you give me some further pointers? Thanks, John.

There is a card editor component to the Crosswire Flashcard app. You can see it in the 2nd screen shot here: http://www.crosswire.org/flashcards/index.jsp?section=Screenshot
I believe you’ll have to do the manual download and install in order to see/use it.

I was going thorough the mounce vocabulary but after the 14 word I got a black page. I close the program started again and I went through 4 words and I got same blank page.
