![]() As I don’t like forcing changes in any direction. Another fun option is the Forest timer for your phone. The one I use is the Be Focused – Focus Timer available on the Apple store. If you hit “Continue” you enter into another cycle. If you hit “Finish,” it takes you out of the deck to the deck browser. If I had this as “1 minute,” it would tell me how many cards I reviewed after 1 minute. It just will tell you how many cards you’ve reviewed after a certain amount of time. The final setting seems like Anki’s attempt at a Pomodoro built-in timer, or some sort of timer. We want to minimize that as much as possible. When you mess with this setting you are messing with the algorithm. I would never change this setting unless you are trying to get through these cards before bed, or need to get through the cards in a short amount of time for some reason. However, if it is set at 0, as mine is, I have to wait that 15 minutes before I see this card. This means if Anki pushed a card 15 minutes into the future, as it what happens for me when I hit “again,” if the “learn ahead limit” is 15 minutes, I could review it now (0 minutes after hitting “again”). The last setting worth mention here is the learn ahead limit. ![]() I am never up past 10 pm studying, and never up before 5 am. If you study late into the night or start studying really early in the morning, you might want to change this setting. ![]() That means cards that are destined for the next calendar day appear at 4 am that day. This is the time at which the “next day” is registered by Anki. You can check out my daily study routine here.įinally, I have the “new day” start at 4 am. Then I will learn the new content for today from third-party content, unsuspend those new cards, then study them. Then I will learn any new cards leftover from the day before. This is because I want to review all of the information that settled in my brain overnight first. The next setting is the order of cards to be shown. So my “again” step is 15 minutes and my “good” step is 1 day so my “hard” step is ~12 hours.
