Very nice concept.
In practice mode, could we make it turn the card by “A” button? and also make it move the card by holding the trigger. It’s quite tedious to grab the cards every time. Otherwise, perfect!
[Update] ------------------------------------------
Thanks for the update! I love that I can turn the card by "A" button now!
The bug report link seems be broken, and I used feature request link instead, but I am not sure if it works or not.
I have two suggestions.
1. The ambient music seems to stop after playing once. Could we play it in loop? When I study long, the music stops.
2. Could you make "B" button for "Correct" and "Y" button for "Incorrect" so that I don't need to grab the card and move a card manually?

Wow I really appreciate the update. It is now perfect! I love this app :-)
Thanks!
It's hard to find an educator who would argue against the effectiveness of flashcards for memorization. This was true 20 years ago when I first studied anatomy and physiology, and it holds just as true today as I learn Spanish.
I've been using this app for over four months, and I appreciate its simplicity above all else. Immersion is crucial for learning, so the ability to focus solely on studying without distractions is invaluable.
Creating flashcards is seamless because the Quest headset allows you to open a browser in a floating window, giving you easy access to your study materials.
In my case, I have my Quest 3 connected to my PC via HDMI Link, which enables me to use the floating window feature while enjoying full access to my computer. If you have the right HDMI capture card, you can achieve this setup with your phone as well.
This app fulfills its purpose perfectly: it helps you learn effectively!
I've tried other study apps in VR, and one thing that I've noticed is that it takes forever to just go through a deck. For a quick study session, SpatialFlashcards is perfect. It's immersive, so you get rid of all of the distractions, everything loads pretty much instantaneously, it has a few environment and sound options, and the flashcards. It really lets you get right down to business without all of the fanfare of walking around an environment and finding cards, etc.
It has a couple different modes (flipping cards and a match game) and will display your progress and accuracy as you go, and allows you to practice only the ones you've missed after it's complete. It's perfect for just jumping in and going through a deck, as you pretty much click the Practice Set button and select the deck you want to use. It has several backgrounds and soundtracks, with an option for MR, as well. The environments aren't insanely high quality, but they're passable, and not distracting, or anything. I'm particularly fond of the greenhouse environment.
You can't create a deck inside of the headset, but it's easy enough to create one and send it to the headset through USB. This will probably be my most used flashcard app, because it's so quick to get a session in, so there's no excuse to not study.
