### 2/5 — Please update

*2025-02-04, version 1.24.2*

When you define a term, the keyboard is in the way of answer with length. In other words, the Flashcards does not scroll so you can see what you are typing.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-05-29, version 1.24.2*

I really like the simplicity and power of this app.  I have used it to study many topics.

I recently discovered the import feature, which really saves time & tedium!

### 1/5 — You have to buy flips

*2023-12-12, version 1.24.2*

I supported this app on the website and still have to pay 8$ for unlimited flips! Ridiculous!! It also isn’t formatted for new phones

### 4/5 — Recommended

*2023-10-19, version 1.24.2*

The app is a bit cumbersome but generally user friendly with useful features. 

Words can be categorized into practice groups. The term and its definition (or word and its translation) can be practiced in forward or reverse order to benefit both expressing and comprehending the term. As one practices a category, a correct response moves the term into a learned column but a wrong response leaves it in the practice column for a further attempt later on.  

For the low price, the unlimited flash card purchase option is a steal.

### 2/5 — Good app but

*2023-09-04, version 1.24.2*

When I signed up online, I all of a sudden got a bunch of spam emails. I think they sell ur email 😭🥺 Disgusting 😡

### 3/5 — Great app, wish better support.

*2023-06-14, version 1.24.2*

I’ve been using the app for a couple of years, creating all sorts of sets for certifications and languages. I even made a spreadsheet that helps formatting for easy importing. The only reason why I’m giving a three star is that the support isn’t responsive. I’ve given suggestions and bug reports, still waiting for answers, and I really am unhappy about that. It’s a good app, but as an example if the number of cards are over a certain amount it’s truncated. I have one set that had 2,868 cards, but in the list it says 28... The names are also truncated. Still, even though the flaws are minor I am happy with the app and still want to use it.

6/13/23 edit: Still happy about the app, still unhappy about the lack of tech support. Anyone else using it able to get a response?

### 1/5 — Bad

*2020-03-18, version 1.24.2*

Why pay when you can go online for free

### 1/5 — Useless after 100 flips

*2019-07-16, version 1.24.2*

Once you use it up, it's no longer useful in the slightest.

### 3/5 — Great app, wish better support.

*2019-01-31, version 1.24.2*

### 1/5 — What’s the point?

*2019-01-17, version 1.24.2*

What’s the point of getting the app and paying money for ‘more flips’ when it’s just as easy to log into your Flashcards account online and do flashcard sets without paying. 
Everyone keeps telling me to use Quizlet for a better experience, but I’ve been using this site for years and didn’t want to move over my card set. However, Quizlet might just be the next step so that I can use an app for the intended purpose — to just learn.
