Hi everyone, it’s been a few days since I started using the new function that automatically plays cards after a predefined time slot — it’s very useful! The problem is that sometimes I have cards (notes) that need more time than the predefined duration, and I was wondering if there is a way to add some time before the answer is shown. I thought of using a trick like adding a “silent” sound or something else. Do you have any hints on how to add extra time to specific cards? Thank you!
