@snowtimeglass can you reproduce this in 2.20?

[snowtimeglass]

Thanks for your interest. Sorry for the delay in responding.

In 2.20.1, the step 2 to 4 above reproduces the same result, but in the first place I still can't succeed with the step 1:

1. (Optional) Confirm that "Auto Advance" feature is working in the selected deck in Reviewer

In other words, so far, I have the impression that "Auto Advance" feature itself doesn't work at all in 2.20.1.
