Earlier version(s) were better. This is version is buggy – Flashcards* Review

I've been using this app for almost two years now and during that time I would have easily gave it a 4 or 5 because of it's stability. Now however I cannot. This app while not terrible it's just not as stable as it once was before and options that should be implemented are not there. The instability is what causes much of my frustration and 1) if you stop and take a break from using the app for awhile the app will lose your place. Most of the time I'm going through huge decks of cards for Chinese most of them are 300+ sometimes I cannot get through all of them in one sitting or I need to stop but when I launch the app again I will have to go through all 300+ cards AGAIN. That wastes a lot of time for me. Sometimes on certain decks the app will let me continue studying but they will I accurately display how cards I needed to study. If I left with 150 cards to go I would log on and it would tell me that I have only 40 to do. 2) there is a bug that makes duplicates of your card without you knowing while studying 3) lastly another inconvenience although minor it doesn't allow you to retrieved checked cards from your deck if you accidentally hit the check mark which does happen more than you expect. This could be a really great app if it manages to stabilize itself again. Would only recommend it now if you are only using it to study small list of cards under 100. The accompanying brainscape app is also good app and it's also good for organizing your decks easier but the study method may not suit the studying need of the learner.
