Hey Davey! Great review in Macworld / iPhone Central.

Hoping you’re able to get sounds and images into iFlash Touch soon.

Hi Davey
Firtst my congratulations for your effort to offer iflash on the iphone!
My question: will there be scroll bars some day so that text length is no longer limited? If not, is there a way to know from within the desktop app how much text will be shown on the iphone?
Thanks a lot.

Hi Davey,

It would be nice if you could include a search function in a later release of the touch version. I use your app to study vocab. With the search function the flash card database could also be my personal dictionary as is the case for the iflash version on my mac already.

Might there be an easy way to link it with the spotlight search function of the iphone/ ipod touch of OS3.0?

Thanks for taking it into consideration.

Hey Davey,

Still loving both versions of iFlash (iPhone and Mac OS X). I’m using it mainly to study for the GREs that I plan on taking in a little over a month.

I thought of another thing I’d love to see implemented in a future version of iFlash.

Automatic Card Rotation!!

I was on the elliptical working out yesterday and thought I could either watch the mind-numbing TV they had on in front of me at the gym, or make my time more useful and try to memorize a few more words. I was able to use iFlash for a while or so and flip through some cards, but eventually stopped simply because I started to get pretty sweaty and didn’t want to touch my iPhone at that point and also it was somewhat hard to steady the iPhone as I flipped through the screen while bobbing up and down; I had to eventually start watching that mind numbing television…

What would have been extremely useful is if while I was working out, I could have just left the iPhone resting on the elliptical’s magazine mount and every 1 or 2 seconds the card would show me the front card, then the back of it, then move on to the next card. I wouldn’t have had to touch the iPhone once i set up the duration of how long the cards should display before moving on to the next card.

Thanks again for an excellent (and most useful) product!!

Score and interval studying will be fantastic additions! Will you also be adding a way to flag cards? To me flagging would be even more useful than images or audio. However, even if i could flag I wonder if there is a way to sync the deck from my iPod Touch to the deck on my desktop?

Thanks for the great work!!

@Aaron: Any possibility of sharing your Arabic flashcards? It would be very useful to me.

Images AND sound!!! PLEASE. I’ve spent a lot of effort getting images and native speaker sounds into my stacks. In the current incarnation of iFlash touch the stacks are severely crippled, although I’m still very supportive of Davy’s efforts so far. How about a progress update? Thanks.

One more vote for supporting images on the Touch version!

I certainly won’t complain to see interval memorization come first; I can well understand how that is the more important feature to many users. Still, I have decks that are only possible with image support, and being able to study them while mobile would make me an even happier and more grateful camper than I already am.

This app would be perfect if it had the ability to view images. Is this something that you are working on?

Just downloaded version 1.0.1 and it has the same problem as described above (@12.). I’m using a 2nd generation iPod touch 8 GB with OS 3.0 (7A341), model MB528BT.
