On AnkiDroid, all text in the flash cards is center aligned. Is there a way to make it left aligned? I'm looking for a solution that does not involve editing each card. For example, is there a setting to make the text left aligned?

Update on the closed question, a workaround: You can always put spaces to the ends of the lines to make them equally long. This will manually left align the text. Example: List of fruits: 1 Nut______ 2 Pineapple 3 Orange___– geffchangMay 13, 2013 at 11:28

@MatthewRead I Agree, great question! Anki including AnkiDroid needs more attention, it is by far the best thing since sliced bread! And thanks to google i found this answer that helped me!– Michal CiechanMar 12, 2018 at 21:33

1@MichalCiechan Appreciate your comment, even years later -- SE has since done away with the "Too Localized" on-hold reason, and if users of the app find this info useful then it should definitely be here. I've cleaned up the older comments.– Matthew ReadMar 13, 2018 at 17:23

You just have to change the style from text-align: center; in text-align: left;– STEE-V SEVENNov 29, 2018 at 20:23

Yes, you can align text to the left.
For now there is no WYSIWYG editor, but you can do what you want with some simple HTML:
If you don't want to do it for each card, modify the card template using Anki Desktop.

@Deqing: You will be glad to know that code.google.com/p/ankidroid/issues/detail?id=635 has been fixed and there is now a way to align left :-) I updated my answer. Nov 11, 2014 at 3:18

Tried adding <p align=left> in both AnkiDroid 2.3.2 and Anki desktop, still not working :(– DeqingNov 11, 2014 at 3:50
