Hello, I’m experimenting with new audio-only cards, and have searched the web and this forum for possible solutions.

I have a very simple card, the front is like this:

```
{{native_audio}}
{{native_text}}

```

And the back is like this:

```
<hr id="answer">
<p>{{target_text}}</p>
{{target_audio}}

```

The idea is that I can study without looking at my iPhone, eg while walking, and have some simple screen regions set up to replay the audio of the answer if I can’t translate it. Currently, though, when I click “replay audio”, both the front and back are played … I’d prefer to not replay the front, as I’ve just heard it.

This isn’t a critical issue, obviously.

Thank you for the great app! Cheers and regards from Canada, jz

Hi jz,

In the deck options, there’s a setting to include/not include the question audio when  
replaying audio.
