Add cards
On a topic’s Cards tab, choose Add card, or press N. The editor opens above the cards. Pick the kind of card at the bottom of the editor. Memorics remembers the last kind you used.
Save the card with Save, or press Ctrl Enter, or ⌘ Enter on a Mac. The editor then starts over with an empty card of the same kind, ready for the next one. If something keeps a card from being saved, such as a cloze card without a gap, a line below the fields says what.
Your draft is kept on this device. If you close the editor, reload the page or come back later, the card you were writing is still there. Close (or Esc) closes the editor and keeps the draft, and the trash button at the bottom of the editor throws the draft away.
Edit a card
Click a card, or choose Edit in its … menu, and it turns into the editor in its place. Save as before. Esc closes it if you haven’t changed anything, and otherwise asks whether to save or cancel your changes. You can edit one card at a time.
You can also edit a card while you study it. See During a session.
Cards the assistant wrote
The assistant can write cards for you: choose Generate next to Add card, and give it your material. Unless you turned that off, its cards are marked Pending on the Cards tab until you keep them, and they aren’t studied before. Choose Keep on a card, or Keep all above the cards, to keep them. You can edit a pending card first, like any other. See Making cards with the assistant.
Asking a basic card both ways
On a basic card, the Both ways toggle at the bottom of the editor asks the card both ways round. Arrows on the line between its sides show that it does. Once you save a card that asks both ways, the toggle can’t be turned off again, so your progress on the other way round is never lost. See The four kinds of cards.
Repeated fronts
If a card has the same front as another card in the topic, its front turns red and the editor says so. You’d have no way to tell the two apart while studying. You can still save it. Formatting, capitals, spaces and punctuation don’t count, so “What is DNA?” and “what is dna” count as the same.
Whose cards you can edit
Only the owner of a topic can add or edit its cards. On a topic someone shared with you or published, you see the cards as they are, and you can flag them for yourself.
