Let me reclarify - I really want this app. I tried RemNote (as they say it's easy to convert notes to flashcards) but it doesn't support hand-drawing on othe iPad, and is just really unintuitive to me still. The flashcards I couldn't figure out back-->front as it's always front-->back.

LLM question --> flashcards is exactly the workflow I want. I ask ChatGPT to do a lot of breakdowns of the grammar and the furigana and the words, being able to consolidate that with spaced reptition flash cards just makes a ton of sense. I don't know how hard it is to make this product really high quality, but happy to pre-pay you $10 for example no strings attached (I'm moved to Japan since 6 months ago)

Thanks, your feedback is worth way more than $10! I have been typing in one line or a couple sentences at a time. Your use case of inputting a whole email sounds very useful though.

I'm wondering if that would require a different UI or if... Say it just broke up the email for you into separate sentences and input them separately. Then you could click through the sentences one at a time in the existing chat carousel, would that work?

Reversing the flashcards wouldn't be much work, but I've heard that's less useful for learning, since for the English text there's be many ways to say it in Japanese. Happy to add features people will use though.

Added reverse cards (only applies to new cards, no backfilling). There's a toggle now in the user settings page (inside the top bar user icon) to enable it. It shows the first sentence of the english text as the front of the card.

My quick fix is to set an input length limit on the chat text. Testing out your input, it seems like around 70 is the limit for getting decent output from the LLM.

OK. I don't mind shorter inputs. Also I hope to have one place for my flashcards i.e. make flash cards directly without LLM too. I hope to write kanjis on my iPad to make flashcards - I can't seem to figure out how to create new cards directly?

Email is just an odd case today since I was refunding an item. I usually want to focus on phrases everywhere, my yoga/pilates class, baseball team, sometimes TV, sometimes what I hear on a podcast, sometimes on a magazine, and get a detailed breakdown. It's not usually in formal, nor long.

I personally like both flash card directions because it allows me to practice how to write kanji for example instead of just recognizing, or in the context of phrases, it helps me practice active recalling rather than just passive recognition.

And thank you very much for making this app, I'm excited to see how it progresses and help you get more users and customers.

I tried so many apps, and was debating whether to build it myself. But it's impossible for me to build - no time and no creative juice left from my main job.
