Hello. I am using memrise for my latin class for my school. I bought purchased memrise pro so i could have the advantages. However, one of them is missing. I cannot do speed reviews. My teacher told my class that speed reviews were helpful, but I cannot do them. Is using my iphone the reason? Other people in my class without iphones can, and I can on my computer, but not on my iphone. I have also kept the app up to date so I dont think thats why. I purchased Pro and would like to have all the advantages

I have the same thing on my ipad. According to this http://feedback.memrise.com/knowledgebase/articles/734589-memrise-pro-in-the-ios-app-explained
speed review on ios is only for the “official memrise courses” why, I have no idea, as you get it for everything on android.
There is speed review on the browser version, so if you have access to a pc or mac you could use that.
Hi @mgolbranson & @jmargrison
On iOS, Speed Review is only available on official Memrise courses (as opposed to community created courses). It becomes active once you learn at least 3 words in the course. For courses where the Speed review is not available, the mode icon will be greyed out. For courses where the mode is available, the icon is bright red. I hope this helps.

In all of my courses that are community made the Speed Review is not only not greyed out, the speed review is often suggested to do next only to be told it is not yet available if I click on it.
@WildSage It seems like your screenshot is from Android.

We checked the course however and can see that “Advanced Who Painted Me” is a picture course, which will not work on Speed Review (Speed Review is predominantly for learning words).
I know it doesn’t work on speed review. I’m just unclear as to why all the community courses show Speed Review when they don’t have them.
Some courses may not be Audio / Image only type course, they may include sentences / grammar or anything in their course.
There’s no telling what content is inside the course until you attempt to launch the speed review session. When you do attempt to launch a speed review session, the application checks if it’s able to create one. If it is unable to launch a speed review session, then the error message will be shown. (Which can be seen in the screenshot you’ve provided)
Of course, when the content creator does add another level which users are tested and prompt with only words, then the speed review session will be launched.
From a programmers perspective I cannot understand why this is not the same on iOS. Especially because this really is useful on old courses where you should know everything be heart.

I agree. It’s pretty easy to implement Speed review for iOS as it works for Safari. Even more dreadful is that a paid subscription does not give Speed review on iOS while I could do it via my iOS Safari connection. So I paid for something that is not there while it’s really there.
