Yes that’s very valuable indeed ! And really justifies paying for AnkiMobile all those years ago to support the whole project 🙂

The study-session switch should be in the [study tools](https://docs.ankimobile.net/study-screen.html) ⚙ – which has settings from the study-session “More” menu in desktop.

Very nice thank you ! I just found that line in the Ankimobile page about Auto Advance, that’s much more explicit. “Automatically rate” instead of “grade” was the keyword I missed 🙂

Yes I know perfectly, I’m also in charge of the quite huge documentation for some music software I develop for years (quite advanced but microscopic audience in comparison with Anki obviously) and it’s impossible to cover everything without drowning users in complexity.  
Luckily there are some people to make the bridge (on youtube or even live workshops online), but as a first ressource I still have tendency to rely more on collective intelligence (i.e. stackoverflow, reddit and Anki forum) to digest a part of that complexity for me 😅
