AQA GCSE Biology, Chemistry, Physics
& Maths · Launching November 2026

Learn it once. Still know it in June.

revolve. is a flashcard app built on the AQA spec. It tracks what you’re about to forget and puts that in front of you first, so ten minutes a day actually sticks.

Waitlist perk: your first week of Pro, free

Free for students. No card needed for the free week. No spam. Privacy

Biology · 4.1 Cell biology

What do mitochondria do?

Tap or press space to flip

Answer

They are where aerobic respiration happens, releasing energy for the cell.

How well did you know it?

  • Flip the card, then rate it. Each rating sets a review date.

Why it works

Your brain quietly deletes most of what you read.

Re-reading notes feels productive, but within a week most of it has gone. Testing yourself just before you forget resets the clock, and every time you do, the memory lasts longer.

That’s spaced repetition. revolve. does the scheduling, so you don’t have to.

How it works

Ten minutes, three steps.

  1. 01

    Pick a topic

    Every card is written against a numbered AQA spec point, so you never waste time on content that isn't on the paper.

    57 cards · Biology topic 1
  2. 02

    Answer, then be honest

    Flip the card and rate yourself: Again, Hard, Good or Easy. That one tap is all the schedule needs.

    Good · back in 4 days · try the others
  3. 03

    Come back when it says

    revolve. works out the day each card is due. Some come back tomorrow, some in three weeks. You just clear what is due today.

    Back after 4 days, then 6, then 15

What’s in it

The whole spec. All four subjects.

1,426 cards across Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Maths, every one written against a numbered AQA spec point. Split by Foundation and Higher, and by Triple or Combined for the sciences. Pick a subject and a topic to see a real card.

Inside the app

More than flashcards.

Each day starts with a short list: the cards that are due, today’s new ones from your exam plan, and a quick quiz. Streaks, weekly leagues and a predicted grade for every subject keep you coming back.

For parents

See how revision is really going.

You can’t see revision happening. With Pro, you get a short email every Sunday with the facts: how much your child revised, how ready they are for each exam paper, and what needs work.

  • Real numbers, not guessesRevision time, days studied and accuracy, compared with the week before.
  • Every exam paperHow ready they are for each AQA paper, with a countdown to the day.
  • On track, or notWhether each subject will be learned in time at their current pace, while there’s still time to fix it.
  • Where to helpThe topics they keep forgetting, and the ones that are going well.

Your child adds your email, or sends you a link to pay for Pro yourself, and nothing is sent until you confirm. One click to unsubscribe.

Pro is £5.99 a month or £59.99 a year, less than an hour with a tutor. Cancel any time. See pricing →

Who made it

Built by someone who sat these exams.

Hi, I’m Alex. I’m a second-year Biomedical Science student at university. When I was revising for my GCSEs, I felt the tools out there weren’t good enough, so I built the one I wish I’d had: every card written against the AQA spec, and a schedule that brings each one back just before you forget it.

Science and Maths come first. After that, I plan to add many more subjects, and A-levels.

Questions

Before you join.

Anything else? Email support@revolverevision.co.uk.

When does revolve. open?

In November 2026. Everyone on the waitlist gets an email the day they can make an account.

What’s free, and what do I get with Pro?

Every flashcard, spaced repetition, the required practicals, a Daily quiz, the AI tutor, your exam plan and a predicted grade for every subject are free, for good. Pro is £5.99 a month or £59.99 a year, and adds detailed reports, a weekly email for a parent, the grade boost plan, cram mode, full quiz mode and more tutor messages.

How does the free week of Pro work?

Join the waitlist before we launch and your first week of Pro is free. Start it from the Pro page in the app whenever you’re ready. You don’t need a card: if you don’t add one, Pro ends after seven days and you’re never charged.

I’m doing Combined Science, or Foundation tier. Is it for me?

Yes. Every card is marked Foundation or Higher, and Triple or Combined (Trilogy), so once you tell it your tier and science route you only study what’s on your papers.

What about Edexcel, OCR or other exam boards?

revolve. is AQA only for now. Every card is written against a numbered AQA spec point, so it won’t line up exactly with another board’s spec.

Does it work on my phone, and without signal?

Yes. It runs in your phone’s browser, and you can add it to your home screen like an app. Once it’s loaded it keeps working without signal, and syncs your progress when you’re back online.

I’m a parent. What happens to my child’s data?

We collect as little as we can: their name, email and revision progress, stored in a database in Ireland. We never sell it or use it for ads, there are no tracking cookies, and they can delete all of it from Settings at any time. You need to be 13 or over to make an account. Read the privacy notice →

How is it different from Quizlet or Anki?

With Quizlet and Anki you make your own cards, or find someone else’s. revolve. comes with 1,426 cards written against the AQA spec, and plans around your exam dates: what to learn each day, a predicted grade for every subject and, with Pro, a weekly report for a parent.

Will there be more subjects, or A-levels?

That’s the plan. Science and Maths come first, then more GCSE subjects, then A-levels.

GCSEs start in May.

The earlier you start, the less you have to do each day. Get in first when revolve. opens in November 2026, with your first week of Pro free.

Free for students. No card details, no spam. Privacy
