How about something simple?

I learn best with the old fashion method of flashcards! Are there any good flashcard apps?

Well, that depends whether you want to pay for the app or not. I believe there are some good free apps out there, you only need to find them. I've made it a little easier and I've found you two links which could be very useful:

http://appadvice.com/appguides/show/flashcard-apps-for-the-ipad

and

http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/6-flash-card-apps-for-android-compared-which-is-the-best/

The first one provides you with a list of few types of flashcards - some you have to buy, some are, however, free. The second link compares 6 of the applications and shows their pros and cons. Do some research and then decide which ones could work best for you. I wouldn't recommend buying apps until you've tested them and know for sure you'll use them - otherwise, it's wasted money.

Evernote Peek sounds interesting. I'd check it out if I were you.

That reminds me of how I memorized math equations before, through flashcards. :D

It is really a simple but very useful  tool when trying to learn new things like languages. Nice to know that there are already apps for it but better if those are free apps.

Have you tried Memrise or Anki?

I use Memrise for most of my language learning and I find it very useful. A lot of people prefer to use Anki, but I haven't tried it. Memrise is completely free and Anki is free on desktop, but you have to pay for the app if you use iPhone.

I second the post about Memrise, I really like that site! It's worth mentioning that Duolingo also has a flashcard section--however, you can't make your own. But it tracks your progress and the words you haven't practiced in a while!
