Android app forgets some of my settings when I logout and login

Sometimes I have to logout and login again (to work around a bug where edits I made in existing words do not propagate to the app). Unfortunately, when I do, it seems that the Android app keeps forgetting some of my settings:

  • The number of words per learning session is always set to 7 (I want it to be set to 10)
  • The daily reminder is always switched on (I want it switched off)

In addition, after logging in I always get the beginner’s tour, where the screen darkens and it tells me something like “Abracadabra! You have hints”. I would expect Memrise to remember that I have seen these hints before and don’t need them again.

Sounds like the real problem here is that edits to words still don’t propagate to the app. That problem has existed for years. I doubt they’ll fix it.

On top of that I’m guessing the app saves your settings locally and resets them on logout (which is usually a good thing!). Might be nice if they saved them server-side, but then there’d be a chance that some users want different settings on different devices.
