Sort cardsets (courses) in to custom folders, example: Category Biology>Course 2 Hearth>Subject 1
Chomps like this would make the interface cleaner, easier to find cards, and learning better

Better implementation of changing the learning direction
I want to be able to learn a deck both ways. Currently If I learn source to target the card is marked as known even if I don't know the card target to source. Cards should not be marked as known for only knowing them one direction. I don't know the best way to fix this, but the way I see it there should be an option under "edit course" or "more course actions" that says "learn cards in both directions." Selecting this would make it so every card in the deck would have a mirror image card that had…

add a multiple choice option for the answers, instead of just flashcards
It would be better for test takers, as giving them multiple choices would be beneficial to their test taking strategies

Make it only possible to advance one level on each card, in one day.
Because now it is possible to advance unlimited with levels in one day. But this is kind of cheating because we are then using our short time memory instead of our longtime memory. And then the word is suddenly scheduled for next review in maybe 365 days, though I only actually remembered the word for one day.

Make use of learning techniques
A part that would really distinguish this App from other flashcard apps is if it also had a great "Learning part". As the program works now, it's "repeat until you remember". But there's more effective ways to memorize cards. Mainly by association, linking it to things one already know. Also visualization, linking it to all the senses, linking to a strong feeling of some kind. And more..
Suggestions:
* a learning style test, to see what's your personal most effective learning style. Visual, audio, talking, physical, and more.
* when you answer "thumb down, didn't know", you get a custom…12 votes -
Option to use Text to Speech Synthesizer
For people that have a more "audible" learning style, or if you just want to close your eyes, enable option for text to speech.

Allow a card or deck's learning history to be reset
What do I do if I want to let someone else use the flashcards? what if I have a test tomorrow, and can't wait 3 days to review my flashcards? What if I hit the "known" button instead of the "don't know" button on accident? for all these reasons and more you should be able to reset the learning history of a deck, and preferably an individual card as well.

Integrate google voice for lessons
Since Google now supports many languages through Google voice it would
be interesting if you could incorporate it into the lessons.Here's the scenario, the user would need to speak the word (or phrase)
properly. Google voice would then try to transcribe what was spoken,
if it matches what's on the flashcard, then the user successfully
completes the card.I am doing this now for Czech and it works rather well. It forces me
to say the words very clearly otherwise Google will give me the wrong
word. I just thought it would be cool to integrate it into the …10 votes -
Add voice recording
It would be very nice to have the possibility to record the pronunciation of a word. There could be a button to add a voice recording to a card.

Support the "Share..." feature for creating new cards from other apps
to create a flashcard from selected text from within another app, we could hook the app into the share feature.
A typical example would be like this. I read an ebook in one of the apps. Then in see the unfamiliar word. I tap on it and select. In the menu I have SHARE. Press that and get a list of apps to send this word to. Google translate as well as sms and email are always there. Would be nice to have flashcards also. Send it into the last pack worked with.

Enable to easily swap front and back side of a card
Sometimes you may realize that you need to swap the texts from front and back side of a card (e.g. after importing cards). So far this can be only done by copy/pasting the text manually.
=> a swap front/back menu entry in the card editor would enable to do this with just a click

manual for importing cards with images
Since hours I try to find out, what the rules for importing cards with images are. With no real success. Looks like that folder, zip and csv have to be named "FlashcardsToGo"... but I'm really confused, to many changeable variables... PLZ give a short good (complete) manual about that
4 votesYes, this should be better documented!

Improved listing all cards in the deck
Better overview and management of cards in stack. Cards listed in simple rows. Each row should have level/front/back and a tick box for multiple delete or edit of level.

reorder courses
As for now, the last created course is on top. It would be nice to be able to rearrange them.

statistics with numbers
I'd love to see statistics with actual numbers instead of bars so that I get a more accurate forecast on how many cards exactly I'll have to learn tomorrow and the day after...
Right now I have problems doing that by just comparing the length of the bars because I have a very small smartphone.3 votes -
Option to show only one notification icon, regardless of how many card packs need to be reviewed.
When using several card packs the notification area can quickly fill up with multiple Flashcards ToGo icons alongside email, sms and other notifications. This can result in other notification icons being hidden from view.
