Heck this deserves an answer, not just a comment.

Awesome question! My GoD I wish there were!!!! I'd use them a lot more, but I get so bored and feel like I'm wasting.

I don't know, maybe they think if you can be held captive but bored 2 of every 3 seconds, then you'll look at the paid advert (which is not great, but would be fully understandable).

Or maybe they've done some educational psychology studies and know that we learn better with that long pause, even if we don't think so.

It sure would be nice if it were an adjustable parameter, or if it could be bypassed by something simpled, like a or tap.

Good to see that it's not only me that chafes under that.

The other reason I've been looking into using other sites is that there is no mobile flashcard support. I would love to be using time in bank lines and traffic and on breaks to do more flashcards, but it's not an option.

It would be So So nice if the flashcards were on the mobile app, even if not a full implementation. i.e even if they were just virtual cards with a word on each side and didn't have timing and multiple choice an all that other nice stuff. That would be relatively easily implementable and be a lot better than nothing.

Thanks for posting this.

Not that I have an opinion or anything?

There seems to be a mobile app for the Iphone for ANKI. You may look in to using that. - Fredbong, Jan 30, 2013
