Hi,
I'll try to describe my issue.
Right now I got around 11,000 vocabularies in 5 different languages in my 
Mnemosyne database. I go through all these vocabularies every day. Of 
course the Mnemosyne's AI based system asks me only few of these 
vocabularies every day based on my choice of 1, 2, 3, 4 resp. 5. 
To keep it easy let's just say I'm asked about 80 words per language per 
day. I always use my phone for this. As long as I don't enlarge my 
database, there will be no issue. But as soon as I add new words (which can 
be done on the laptop only) to one or several languages, of course I have 
to do a syncing to get the new words to my phone. And that's where the 
problems occur. I do the syncing from my phone which then is the local 
version as I learned yesterday. The program then asks me if I want to keep 
the local or the remote version. Of course I have to choose the remote 
version (laptop) since I want to get the new words to my phone. But in that 
case, not only the new words, but also the "word testing condition" (I hope 
you understand what I mean, I'm not an English native) of the laptop is 
transmitted to my phone, but that condition is actually wrong since I never 
do my vocabulary on the laptop. That's why every time after syncing, I have 
to do all 11,000 words on my phone again.

How can I avoid that? How can I get the lately created words from the 
laptop but still keep the word testing state from the phone?

I hope I could explan my issue in an understandable manner.

Thank you in advance for your help!
