Show HN: I combined spaced repetition with emails so you can remember anything

Hey HN,

I am a student shipping apps in my free time. This is my 4th for the year!

Non-fic books and podcasts have been part of my life for years now but I always struggled with remembering what I’ve read or listened to. I wanted it to stick even after years.

My notes list grew large but I never really revisited them. That’s why I created GinkgoNotes.

You can enter notes you want to recall and leave it to the app to create a personalised (based on spaced repetition) email schedule. That means you’ll get your notes emailed to you a couple of times exactly when you should read them again (based on Ebbinghaus's Forgetting Curve) so it’s certain that you’ll remember them.

I hope this will be helpful as it was for me. Would love some feedback!

Iskren
