Fixed some bugs that would cause problems when learning.
Version 3.0
Previous Version
SmartCard 3.0 brings a lot of smaller and bigger changes, here are the most important ones:
Better Learning
The learning screen has been redesigned. Text on cards now adapts to how much text is on the card (gets bigger if there is less on the card). If you drag cards up or down, the speed of dragging changes how fast the card disappears. Learning with or without keyboard is now possible on iPhone and iPad. Learning with an external keyboard works without you ever having to touch the screen.
Improved card adding
Cards can be created by looking terms up on Wikipedia or dict.cc, or any other site you specify. The text from websites can be added to the question or answer directly by selecting it.
Improved Import
CSV Import now previews the entire file and handles different file formats better. Teachmaster Import handles foreign languages better. Additionally, the SmartCard file format has been simplified.
