FlashDB Support

FlashDB ships with a small starter set of 25 sample Spanish-English questions, tagged "Starter". They load automatically the first time you open the app on an empty database so you have something to study right away.

If you delete them and want them back, open Settings → Questions → "Load Starter Set".

Open Settings → Manage Questions → tap the + icon to add one question at a time. Or use Settings → Import JSON Questions to bring in a JSON file of questions you created or downloaded.

Each question is a JSON object with these fields:

• question — the prompt text
• answers — an array of exactly four answer strings
• correct — the index of the correct answer (0 to 3)
• correct_letter — the letter A, B, C, or D

Optional fields: id (string), figure (image filename without extension), tags (array of strings), attempt_count, and miss_count. The JSON Format help topic inside the app shows a complete example.

Use Settings → Import Folder and pick a folder that contains both your JSON file and the image files. The app matches them by filename. If you prefer, import the JSON first and then use Import Images afterwards.

Tags are short labels you attach to a question to group it — for example "verbs", "chapter 3", or "hard". Set them in Add Question or Edit Question by entering a comma-separated list.

Turn on Settings → Behavior → Enable Tag Filter to get a "Filter by Tag…" button on the home screen that lets you scope a session to specific tags.

FlashDB does not track answers unless you turn on Settings → Behavior → Track Question Performance. If tracking is off, nothing is recorded. If tracking is on, your miss is counted; you can reset every question's counts back to zero with Settings → Behavior → Reset Question Performance.

No. All data lives only on the device where you created or imported it. To move your library to another device, use Settings → Export Questions on the source device and Settings → Import JSON Questions on the destination device.

No. There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking, and no third-party SDKs that phone home. Read the Privacy Policy for the full statement.

With a hardware keyboard attached:

• Home: Return starts a session, ⌘N adds a question, ⌘, opens Settings.
• Quiz: 1, 2, 3, 4 pick an answer; Return advances after feedback.
• Flashcards: Space flips the card, ← and → move between cards.
• Manage Questions: ⌘N adds a question. While Add Question is open: ⌘S saves, Escape cancels.

Yes. FlashDB has been built with full VoiceOver support, custom rotor actions on flashcards ("Flip card", "Next card", "Previous card"), Dynamic Type, and respect for Reduce Motion. The Show Live Score toggle in Settings also lets anyone take a quiz "blind" — without running score, haptic feedback, or per-answer announcements — when you only want to see your total at the end.

A short description of what you were doing, what happened, and what you expected instead. iOS version (Settings → General → About on your device) and the FlashDB version from the App Store page are very helpful. Screenshots are welcome.
