Decks and folders

How do I delete a deck? No. 10

1. On the home screen, long-press the deck you want until selection mode turns on.
2. Mark more decks if needed — they can be deleted in a batch.
3. In the top bar, tap the “Delete” button.
4. Confirm the deletion in the dialog that appears.

What are folders for? No. 11

Folders group decks by any criterion that works for you: language (“English”, “Spanish”), course (“Duolingo lessons”), level (“B1 → B2”), material type (“Movies”, “Work”). A folder can be nested inside another — there is no limit on nesting depth.

To create a folder, tap in the top bar of the home screen, enter a name and confirm. For more details, see “Decks, folders, cards”.

How do I move a deck to another folder? No. 12

1. Long-press the deck to enter selection mode.
2. Tap the “Move” button in the top bar.
3. In the dialog that opens, choose the destination folder — or “Root” to return the deck to the general list.

You can move several decks at once. Nothing in the cards’ data changes — only the deck’s “address” in the hierarchy.

How do I move a folder to another folder? No. 13

Exactly the same as with a deck. Long-press the folder, choose “Move” and pick a destination folder. All its contents — nested folders and decks — will move along with it.

How do I edit a deck’s name? No. 14

1. Long-press the deck to enter selection mode. Make sure that only one deck is selected — otherwise the edit button will not appear.
2. In the top bar, tap “Edit”.
3. In the dialog that opens, change the name and optionally the deck description, then confirm.

How do I edit a folder’s name? No. 15

The same way: long-press the folder, tap “Edit” and change the name in the dialog that opens. Confirm — the folder’s contents are not affected.
