Why does the QUiz function not work ?

ok, but definetly needs improvements

this piece of software (lite version) has promising beginnings, yet there there is quite some room for improvement.
good: sync through iCloud with iPhone/iPad (though haven’t tried the iOS versions due to reasons below), filters (newest, oldest … - which i came to test either)
what kept me from coninueing was the lack of import options and help features. Import of import provoc & txt files does not seem to work; so I tried to find some guidance about import formats in the help menu. Yet, that „feature“ is not activated in the demo version intelligenterweise (strange enough, because the people testing the software will have the most questions).
Overall, I won’t re-enter my vocabulary (around 5000 words), despite of the learning effect that may have, unless import formats are clarified.
and it would be goodto know what other (superiour) differences the full version provides (apart from the help menu)?
