Yes, there are two ways to reverse Question and Answer on your flashcards, so you can study in the opposite direction.
If you'd like to create permanent reverse flashcards (i.e. add new, separate flashcards that ask the question in the opposite direction), then you can do the following:
- Open the Deck to Edit it on the website
- Switch to the Advanced Editor (if you are not already in the Advanced Editor)
- In the left column, select the cards for which you'd like to create Reverse versions
- In the drop-down menu, select "Create Reverse Cards"
- Those new cards will be added to the end of your Deck
If instead you just want to study your existing flashcards in the opposite order (but keep the same confidence rating for the card, regardless of how you studied it), then you can currently only do this in the iOS app, by tapping on a Deck and choosing to Reverse Question and Answer.
We hope to enable this option on all platforms soon.

Just subscribed to be able to reverse existing decks from others. Is there anyway to do it?
Hey Michael,
You'll need to first make a copy of the class so that you'll be able to access the edit screen. You may find this article below helpful.
How do I copy another user's flashcards to edit on my own?
Hope this helps,

Hi... Lack of this feature for my Android devices is the only reason I haven't upgraded. The decks become tedious pretty quickly without it.
