I love the flash cards, they help me sharpen my mind; revisit things that I have forgotten and learn some new things.

Good Duolingo Companion - Couple "Quirks"

LostEcho

I’m using TinyCards with DuoLingo to get a start on learning Spanish and overall I really like how well the two pair, but there are a couple things I find a nuisance in using TC (with DuoLingo, that is). 1) Some of the pronunciations by the female voice in TC is *very* different than those in DL, which for someone who is learning can be frustrating when you speak to the bots in DL and the voice recognition doesn’t accept your TC pronunciation but will if said the way the word is pronounced in DL. 2) I’ve run across vocabulary words in TC that appear to have incorrect definitions, or at least, DL will mark you as incorrect. Ex: in TC "Different" is ‘distinto’. In DL, you’ll be marked as incorrect, as ‘diferente’ is the word they’re looking for and in DL ‘distinto’ is "distinct" in English (which makes sense). According to iTranslate, distinto can mean different, but DL only accepts one answer, diferente (even though both distinto and diferente are in the same DL lesson). Since these two apps are created by the same dev and marketed as companions, there should be strict cohesion among the translations. 3) Some of the words found in the DL lessons aren’t even included in TC until later lessons or not at all, which makes trying to learn the vocab in TC before tackling a DL lesson irrelevant. 4) This one is more a request than an issue, but it would really be great to be able to move the flash cards around in TinyCards. If I could pair “start" and “finish” right next to each other, their visual proximity would help me remember the Spanish translations quicker. The cards are grouped by theme for the most part in TC, but having the ability to move them around freely would really be helpful. I love using this app with DuoLingo. I feel like it’s really helped me pick up the vocabulary quicker than if I were using DuoLingo alone.

Useless

Happyhorticulturalady

There are no instructions to use this App. Secondly it sent me to the App from Duolingo, but there are no Japanese cards. You wasted my time, and battery. Don’t put out a garbage App that doesn’t work. This is junk ware to sell more Apps.

Swipe

The swipe thing isn’t really working for my iPhone SE, could you please fix or tell me what to do? Thanks so much!!!

Great app for me

I think the pace of the learning is pretty fun memorizing words. Sometimes if I forget, I turn off typing and I’ll remember

Very good, very easy needs some tweaks

I find this app very helpful. Though when I get an answer incorrect I’m able to get it right a second time, due to the little tip telling me to “type ___” that is actually the answer. Somewhat of a stepping stool and feels like a cheat.

Good

Nice app, but it keeps crashing

Meg?

My device meets all the standard system requirements to use this app, but for some reason it likes to crash whenever I scroll through cards or switch to a different deck. It happens every time I use the app. I have very little apps on my device and every other app aside from Tinycards works very well. Please fix ASAP.

Great app, just one tip

I think the fastest way to recall and memorize information is by saying it quickly out loud. It would be helpful if we could say the answer rather then type it!

Needs work

I downloaded this app to help reinforce the Duolingo Spanish lessons I am working on. It is great except for the fact that it makes you practice far too often to be able to move forward to new material. You can have full strength in all lessons, come back an hour later, and have to do 12-15 practice sessions to get those same strength bars refilled. It's irritating.
