quite useless

The application is quite useless - it does not save corrections to existing entries - after importing a file, the group and file section fills up with tens of repetitions of the same structure - the file from which one imports gets overwritten !

ok, but definetly needs improvements

this piece of software (lite version) has promising beginnings, yet there there is quite some room for improvement. good: sync through iCloud with iPhone/iPad (though haven’t tried the iOS versions due to reasons below), filters (newest, oldest … - which i came to test either) what kept me from coninueing was the lack of import options and help features. Import of import provoc & txt files does not seem to work; so I tried to find some guidance about import formats in the help menu. Yet, that „feature“ is not activated in the demo version intelligenterweise (strange enough, because the people testing the software will have the most questions). Overall, I won’t re-enter my vocabulary (around 5000 words), despite of the learning effect that may have, unless import formats are clarified. and it would be goodto know what other (superiour) differences the full version provides (apart from the help menu)?

Extremelly contreintuitive program

First of all this program is really slow and has a lot of small annoying bugs. It took me a while to understand how to load a vocabulary there. Also, as I understood this profram does not allow me to creat a flash card with a word I need.
