Why does Mochi say 'this deck is empty' for decks which aren't?
I just recently subscribed to Mochi Cloud after using the free Android version for a month. Sync works great and is very fast, but on both Android and web the UI shows all three of my decks as emp...
Yeah sorry this is just poor wording I think. This used to say something like "No decks inside" or something like that. It means that there are not sub-decks. I will probably change the wording bac...

New Card Scheduling: Are 'Don't Remember' (Left Swipe) Cards Added to Review?
When reviewing new cards, if I swipe left (meaning 'I don't remember'), does this add the card to my review schedule? I'm asking because I've only seen a scheduling confirmation in the UI when I s...
No the new cards are not added to the schedule until you are able to remember them once.

Hi, Is there a way to choose the decks from which the cards in the « New cards » section are chosen? I think it would be convenient to have a sort of learn queue to specify the order in which we w...
Add flashcard by default using N?
My understanding of a "flashcard" is that there will be one main side, that you see, as well as a hidden side, that you should try to recall. If it's hard for you to recall, it'll have to be review...
