### 3/5 — Great, clean app - needs a few fixes

*2025-05-17, version 1.17*

Personally, this is the best-looking app for studying two major stacks, and works well. However, there are a few things that could be incorporated to really enhance the app and would be worth paying for.
1 - Add a button to easily jump, or “reset”, to the beginning or end of a stack without having to swipe through 51 cards every time.
2 - The Watch crib is great, but it does not fit the screen (at least on the Apple Watch 6). With no way to zoom in or out, I cannot see all the info in the first or last columns so I can’t use it to train or as a peek.
3 - I would LOVE a way to build/save a custom stack order! Many magicians working with stacks supplement a major one with lesser known or mathematical ones and it’d be awesome to use this app for that.

Thank you for the app and feel free to contact me. I’d be happy to discuss these implementations further and try to help grow the user base

### 3/5 — Aronson stack is wrong

*2024-08-09, version 1.07*

6 of clubs is replaced with the 6 of spades. Would be a great tool otherwise

### 3/5 — Aronson bug

*2024-07-03*

I really love the interface of this app and want to use it to learn Aronson. Unfortunately there’s a bug where the quiz mode only works for Tamariz. I hope the developers see this and fix it.

**Developer response:** Fixed.

### 4/5 — Great, clean study app with 1 small bug and two suggestions!

*2025-04-14, version 1.17*

First of all, great UI with a simple interface that does exactly what it says. One simple request would be the addition of either a “Restart” or “Start from Top/Bottom” buttons. If I am trying to start back from 1, I have to flip through all of the cards again. Adding a reset button would be a convenient time saver, and being able to skip to 52 would help those learning reverse order.

The small bug I’ve encountered is that the stack crib does not display correctly on my Apple Watch 6. 1-13 and 40-52 are cut off with no way to scroll over. It would by great is the full stack dynamically adjusted to fit the watch screen.
This led me to an idea which could even be an in-app purchase: is there a way to show the crib when the watch is raised, then show a dimmed watch face when resting (similar to how the always-on display works)? That way you could use the cheat sheet to track a card when you raise your wrist, but have it look like just a watch face to others around you when your arm is down. Slightly angle sensitive, but would be awesome in a pinch!

Thank you for the work on this app!

### 5/5 — Amazing App!

*2026-06-23, version 1.17*

The app i was dreaming of is just here!!! Thanks a lot!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2025-03-28, version 1.17*

I'm really enjoying the app so far. It's helping quite a bit. One thing I'd love to see added is the ability to choose what type of questions I get in the quiz. I'm doing good remembering which card comes before some other card. I'm having a harder time remembering which number each card is. It would be nice to quiz myself just on the numbers. But it's still an awesome app.

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-01-06, version 1.17*

The app is great, but I would love being able to add any stack deck.

### 5/5 — Aronson bug

*2024-07-16, version 1.06*

Great app

### 5/5 — Fantastic Study Tool for Magicians!

*2024-06-06, version 1.05*

Stack Memory is an exceptional app for anyone looking to master the Mnemonica and Aronson stacks. The intuitive interface and quiz make learning and memorization enjoyable and effective. Highly recommend for both beginners and seasoned performers!

### 5/5 — Best one

*2024-06-06, version 1.05*

This is by far my favorite stack practice app.

### 5/5 — Good job. One bug

*2024-05-28*

You need to change card 18. Supposed to be king of clubs.  You have king of spades in the stack twice

**Developer response:** Thank you, this has been remedied.
