How do I show side 3 first?

In the "Show Side First" setting, there is not an option to show side 3 first. (The reason is because I don't know if you want to see side 2 next or side 1 next.) To show side 3 first, go to the Study Options screen at tap "Card Layout". There is an option "Side 3 on Front". This will show both side 1 and side 2 on the back, creating a 2-sided card. If you want a 3-sided card, you can edit this layout. Tap "Edit", "Side 3 on Front", "Side 1-> 2", and you can then move "T2" (side 2 text) to Side 3, for example.

You need to be in browse mode to start a slideshow. When studying, tap the "B" in the bottom left to put you in browse mode. Tap the play button (triangle) where the "B" was to start the slideshow. To exit browse mode and return to normal answering of cards, tap the bottom middle icon (single card) and choose "Exit Browse Mode". You can speed up or slow down the slideshow using the "delay" settings in the Main Options : Slideshow screen.

Method 1 - download a private deck by "appending" these new cards to an existing deck:
1) Upload just the new cards to this website
2) In app, at the main screen tap "Edit", then the deck you want to update
3) Make sure the "Deck Code" (2nd row) matches the code you used when uploading to the website
4) Tap "Download" then "Append" (** Make sure you tap "Append" and NOT Replace All Cards. **)

Method 2 - from two separate existing decks, copy all cards from one deck to another:
1) Create a new deck as usual (from Quizlet, Private Deck, etc.). We'll copy these cards to another "main" deck...
2) Go to the card listing of this NEW deck. To Copy, tap the "Mode" button at the bottom, "Multi-Select", "Mode" again, "Select All", "Mode" again, "Copy Cards"... Optional: When done, tap "Mode" then "Normal Mode".
3) Delete your NEW deck, if desired
