Hey guys,
I am planning on using the in-built SRS flashcard system with the supplied HSK flashcards. I have a few random questions for your consideration.
1. Is there a specific dictionary I should map cards to? I use the ABC C-E usually but sometimes the definitions are a little weird when I make the test prompt for characters when it gives me the definition only, and it sometimes makes simple words surprisingly hard to guess for that reason.
2. Are there any special features for smartphones with in-built styluses, such as the Galaxy Note 4 for instance?
3. Are there any pro-tips I should know about before embarking on this journey? (Is there anything you'd wished you had known before starting SRS?) =)
4. Is there a better tool or method to use to build vocab? I'm also using ChinesePod for listening practice
I have read a few threads discussing this (for instance on the Anki vs. Pleco debate) but they were a few years old so perhaps the answers are different today.
All the best
