Ratings and reviews

It's fine. it has gotten slightly better over the past year since I've used it. There are a few notable problems. One, is that when you are reviewing flashcards, if you swipe up it will refresh the app. This makes it so you have to reset your filters and overall interrupts your study. There isn't really ever any need to refresh at all. The other issue is that Names of the flashcard sets have been removed from the suggested section, so it is just icons. This is bad if all sets have same icon.

So many problems. I downloaded this for Mandarin Blueprint and wish I'd have just stuck with Anki. The app is slow and has refreshing issues. If when selecting the answer the app thinks you swiped it refreshes, closes you out and you have to go back in. Frustrating if you were only reviewing a subset of cards. I feel the only reason they use this app is so they cannot publicly release their flashcards. It's hard to edit cards in as well. 2 stars because it technically gets the job done.

Not a bad app, but taking into account how basic it is, it's very slow. I can't really figure out the reason for this, as other flashcard apps are generally very quick to load. It can also be a bit frustrating that it doesn't work offline. Further, it's not possible to: go back to a previous card, predict number of cards for the next day, adjust the algorithm, recategorize cards that might have been mistakenly marked "don't show again", or get any data regarding recall rate or time spent.
