How do I change how Tomaru flashcards look and sound?
In Tomaru, "Card look" lets you adjust the text size, what appears on the card, which side the image goes on, the back-side layout, and the flip direction, while "Sounds" lets you choose the voice, when it reads, how many times auto-read repeats, and how example sentences play. Tap the card in Study settings to preview changes instantly, and it's all free.

Key points
- Tomaru's "Card look" has four tabs (Text size, On card, Back side, and Flipping), and the preview card at the top updates as you make changes; tap it to flip.
- Tomaru lets you resize the whole card (5 sizes) or just the example sentence, translation, and notes (80%–160%).
- Tomaru can show the image on both sides, the front only, or the back only; on the back, the image can be small on top or a full background.
- Tomaru offers four English voices (Standard, Gentle woman, British man, and British woman), and Japanese and Korean each have a second voice.
- Tomaru's auto-read can play when a new card appears or when you flip to the back, and it can repeat 1, 2, or 3 times.

Related questions
Can I make the text on flashcards bigger?
Yes. In "Card look" → "Text size," you can enlarge the whole card, or just the example sentence, translation, or notes.
Can I show images only on the back of the card?
Yes. Go to "Card look" → "On card" → "Where to show image" and choose "Back only," so the front doesn't give you a picture hint.
Can I get a British accent for English audio?
Yes. In "Sounds" → "Who reads," choose "British man" or "British woman."
Can each word be read aloud twice automatically?
Yes. In "Sounds" → "Advanced" → "How many times to read aloud," choose 2× or 3×.
