for Step 1 studying? I'm torn between First AID facts, Anki, and Firecracker.

Try them and see which you like. Me telling you that I like FC isn't going to help you if Anki is more consistent with what you're looking for.

The one you will actually use. Honestly there's really no other difference in terms of effectiveness. I liked FC overall and used my own anki card as needed for classes.

FA is the newest kid on the block. Anki is most customizable. FC costs a lot of money.

Is there a way to get First AID Facts on your iphone? I can't find anything for it in the app store.

Do you know of anyone that's actually used the FA Facts?

Memorang (memorangapp.com) has a relatively cheap subscription and they indexed a ton of FA material into a really user friendly app format. I'm only a MS1 but I use it all the time for making my own cards and plan on integrating the premium step 1 content into my studying next year.

I like Anki. My roommate let me borrow his memorang subscription, but for some reason didn't find it as intuitive as other people do. If you're an M1 you have plenty of time to try them all out and see which one works best for you.

No, it just came out.

I'm a big supporter of using anki and making decks of facts that you personally miss and need work on. Otherwise, people seem to get bogged down in thousands of cards that aren't relevant for their particular knowledge deficits, and eventually can't keep up with all the cards.
