It’s true that I will forget more cards for not having reviewed them and therefore not having them stick in my mind, but this is still a small percentage. So odd are most of the cards in my review I would have remembered, so it’s easier to send them on their way and fail the small amount of cards I would have missed the next time they come up. I view Anki as a long term thing (which is to say I’m not using it for tests, but rather it’s something I expect to keep ongoing for most of my life). Not ideal, but better than the nuclear option of resetting everything. Usually, I just speed through them without really looking at them and mark them as good, doing batches here and there over a few days and not doing any new cards until it’s done. Ok, so a complete confession about how I approach this when it happens to me. It'll take care of itself for the 90% case here the rest you can tweak if you feel like tweaking it.

Install Auto Ease Factor, and take all the defaults in its config screen and only set the max-reps/day thing in Anki and don't worry about the rest of it.

Right, and unless you WANT to be you shouldn't have to. Memory is not something that can be tailored to the day by any algorithm when to show a card is a best guess anyway, so most importantly 'don't sweat it'.Īlso, I'm not really an anki programming specialist, That way it DOES go over the ones you missed since it exhausts its reps and 'knows' it's done for the day.īut either way works, you will eventually get them all done. So I moved to the maxreps/day method, and set it to about the number I could do in my mythical 20 mins. I used to be a big proponent of the time-based method, but the problem there is you don't necessarily get a second shot at the ones you missed since Anki doesn't know you're going to end. You can go time-based (eg: 'I'll do 20 minutes a day' and then set a timer and just do that), or let Anki kind of dictate that for you by setting a max-reps/day setting and doing that. More of life-advice here, but any way that you can connect the work to some deeply-held value will help overcome the hurdle. I've never applied that approach, but others here have vouched for the method.Īny other way to find back some motivation ? There are approaches that involve filtered decks to capture really overdue cards and keep them separate from cards that are just coming due now. General advice, don't add any new cards while you're catching up. It took me about as long to recover as the duration of the period I was away from Anki - maybe a little longer. The data-driven approach to getting back on track helped me commit to the task. I setup a spreadsheet that I used to keep track of the backlog and to compute how many cards I needed to review daily to finish by a certain date. Instead, I've just tried to get Zen about it and commit myself to working down the backlog. I've used Anki for over a decade and this has happened to me 2-3 times. If you know it well, a complete reset seems excessive. Partly the decision comes down to how well you know the information still. There are really only two main options - complete reset or just work down the backlog.
