The Rememberize Blog

It’s often those small things that can be the most vital. Ever since the inception of Rememberize, for example, the small option to choose which side of a card to display while learning has been, at least for me, indispensable. When I wrote a brief spec outlining the requirements of Rememberize v1.0, that was in there. It was, for my use of flashcards, a necessity.

But, it’s often those small things that can be the most vital. You see, the feature was flawed. It didn’t persist – I could say one day that I would like random sides shown, but by the next day, Rememberize would’ve forgotten this desire. This is not good – it annoyed me, and therefore, probably you. And so, I fixed it.

The options drop down in the learning screen now has the ability to save your current settings. So if you like your cards on the metaphysical poets to display a random side, you can tell it to do that permanently, and if you’d like your cards on the top 10 largest deserts to always show the frontside of a card, you can tell it to do that. Permanently.

Above and beyond that, you now also have the ability to choose the font size and type for your sets. This will help when you are learning longer strings of text, and would like it to fit in the card without scrolling. Obviously, this too can be saved to be a permanent change.

I hope you like this change.

PS. I also changed some parts of Rememberize to take advantage of some caching technology. Hopefully this will increase responsiveness, and not produce any weirdness. But should weirdness occur, please report it to me – admin [ at ] rememberize [ dot ] com
