Is there a way to auto add tags to a card based on what deck it is placed into? e.g. if I have two cards called [Data Structures] & [Algorithms], I want WHATEVER card dropped into it to automatically be tagged {foundations_compsci}. Then I can easily make a filter deck for foundations that covers MANY topics instead of one. Adding a long tag name like that for every card would suck balls. If this cannot be done is there a word around with maybe exporting the cards and re-importing them after adding the tags via excel or something? If you release a video on this please let me know when it's released I liked and subbed this video as well, thank you! The intended behaviour in my example would be to make the {foundations_compsci} DYNAMIC. So if it was put into the DECK then the tag is ADDED automatically but if I browse my cards and decide to move the card into another deck without a dynamic tag it should REMOVE the tag automatically as well from the deck. That would be heaven. If you have influence over Anki updates, please forward my suggestion to the developers. I'm sure you can see how valuable this would be. To clarify if the card itself had a STATIC tag {{data}} then the tag would travel with the card as it changes decks but the {foundations_compsci} tag would be deck specific and implemented/taken-away by the deck itself i.e. a GLOBAL TAG that MAPS to that DECK NAME.
These settings are phenomenal. Thank you very much I've been using these exact settings to learn 25 Korean vocabulary cards a day, and I am now at about 1000 cards. It works very well, and it only takes me a little over an hour each day to get through my reviews and new cards.

hey dude I was just starting to learn English back in 2018 like in October, I wish I found your channel back then, but now I can take advantage of it and learn how to use Anki properly, God bless you
The best anki video I have ever watched. I now understand how Anki works in the background and how to set the best settings to learn permanently. Thank you a lot.
Thank you for the explanation! I wish I’d watched this video right when it came out, would have saved me a lot of frustration with Anki this past year xD Also your passion for Anki is so infectious. My determination to maintain the streak this year has been renewed…
it's a very nice and detailed explanation thanks man! it'd be amazing if you could make a video on how to best approach language decks and how to maximize the efficiency of learning new vocabs
Suspending a card on leech does not make sense in medical school, but it is really useful in certain cases. For instance when learning a language, it makes sense to focus on quantity instead of dealing over and over again with a few select words
@@mydearriley Depends on your med school! In my country we have oral exams where if you don't know something basic that the professor deems crucial, then you will fail the exam, even if you're otherwise very knowledgeable on other topics. So you can't suspend the flashcards that contain this kind of core information. Essentially you can't make up for a topic you're struggling with by knowing more about other stuff. There's a certain minimum you need to know about every published exam topic.
I use suspending on leech to help prevent ease hell. I will just forget the word, let it go. Then I will remake the flash card at some point, with higher quality, multisensory memory, and learn them again. That way I can release part of the lowly optimized neural network(the original card that didn't fit into my brain) and give the word a new home on the network, in a more efficient position.
Merci, c'est un vidéo très utile qui permet de constater un travail basé sur l'expérience et non sur une volonté d'influence. Vous avez ajouté plusieurs détails intéressants. Salutation du Québec.
This was super helpful. I've been using Anki daily for about 3 weeks (language learning) and really enjoying it, but none of the other tutorials I had come across explained the details of Anki as well as this one. I've adjusted a few settings which should make Anki work even better for me; I now have a much better understanding of how Anki works behind the scenes. Thanks for this video.
Thanks for the video anking ! I was really scared of ease hell and never wanted my ease to reduce from 250%, appreciate your videos and the effort you put in. God bless you and may He guide us to the right path
I love you anking. I love you i need you i want you lmao ❤️❤️❤️ But thanks for giving out this content for FREE. It’s such a blessing to have people living and breathing like you in this world. IN THIS CRUEL ABUSIVE WORLD. People like you are hope. People like you are the light in the darkness. People like you are the something something. Also ya don’t get too prideful or narcissistic reading this comment you’re still a human and hence vulnerable. But ya i really appreciate it :) ❤️❤️❤️
I love this video, but you really did Prerak dirty in your intro. He's not just some "medfluencer". He has helped so many people get into med school (including me) and succeed in school with his videos. He is a good guy that cares about the community. He has also been quite frank about his mental health struggles. Not only that, but he also gave me invaluable anki knowledge about certain add-ons, which I use to this day. Dumping on him is a pretty low-blow on your end.
I just watched it again to make sure I didn't say anything as negative as you made it sound. I simply said that those people are primarily influencers and making videos about Anki because it's popular, but aren't necessarily experts on the topic. Prerak is an influencer and he does seem to be a good guy that cares. I'm glad his content has been helpful. I'll admit all of them make higher quality videos than I do. However, I still stand by my statement that I am far more expert in understanding Anki than he or any of the other influencers.
@@AnKingMed Yeah that's fair. You also have helped me enormously in my life. I don't know where I would be without your help, so thank you. However, I don't think he's misleading anyone imo. If it worked for him and he wants to share from his experience, then doing so adds value to the medical education community and doesn't take away from it. I'm glad you made this video nevertheless, because this too adds value. I just found it unwarranted to do a "callout" as if you were "exposing" something nefarious, when imo it's not nefarious. Especially in his case, from my perspective, it doesn't seem like he cares about views at all or is trying to be trendy. He just wants to help, and he has. My two cents.
An argument for a maximum interval would be based on how the fact that it would be a long while before you learn you have forgotten something. What are the odds that I forget a card Anki would send to 5 years, and what are the consequences if I have to recall that in 3 years only to discover I can't? Maybe it's "I don't care, and it's great if I do manage to recall it" but maybe it's also "gosh I might actually need to recall it in that interval and will be harmed". I think that determines the setting.
So when should you use the hard button? For cards you've seen already and gotten correct before but now are struggling with? I feel like improper use of the rating buttons contributes to my problems with Anki so some clarity would be great! Also - super solid content, really helps brings people into the software, thank you Anking!
@@AnKingMed exactly like me, especially for some specialities that I know well like cardio, neuro, etc. Specialities that we have in France since the 4th year of med school (D2). I'm actually in 7th year (we call it ECNi in France) and the "hard" button helps me, notably, with more fresh specialities like dermatology, psychiatry, and more.
I love your videos BUT would want to know: 1. how successful you are with your current Anki setting in regards to pre-clinical exams 2. how much time you do Anki per day 3. how many cards you do per day 4. Love the channel / you and your team are a SAINTS to ALL MEDICAL STUDENTS
1. I scored 260+ on step 1 (there’s a video on it). 2. I spent 2-3hrs doing reviews and the rest of the day learning new material. About 30-60min a day in clinicals. 3. In pre clinical years I was doing ~600 reviews a day and then 500 new/week. 4. Thanks :)
@@AnKingMed THANK YOU for the response. You and your team are nothing less than a motivation and I use your videos as the road map throughout my medical school journey
I would love there to be a setting whereby, when i see a review card again after say 90days, i would then like to see that card again within the next week before i send it out to 90 days again. I feel this really helps solidify.
Anking it would be so awesome if we could export the whole deck info into excel like to analyze how much time we used for all qn individual question,,how much review we need in average to solidify a content lot more and help to understand our brain and also how settings work for us...
After learning what each button does in each situation (learning phase, relearning phase and after a card graduates) I realised that when reviewing a card, I can not know in which of the situation above the card is in. One button does one thing in a phase and another thing in the other phase. Not knowing what phase the card is defeats the purpose of learning the function of the buttons.
I'm a Canadian med student, so we don't really have the USMLE Step exams - and I'm just about to start Clerkship. I could never get the hang of Anki in preclerkship... but I've decided that doing SOME flashcards is better than none at all. I reinstalled Anki and reinstalled the v11 deck, and I'm starting fresh. Better late than never, I suppose...?
Question for you: you have the learning interval at 1m 25m. I find that my average review sessions rarely ever are more than 10 minutes as I do only 6 new cards a day. What do you recommend in this situation? I feel like reducing it to say, 1m 6m might help, but I also wonder if I should just increase my new card limit to avoid relying on short term memory too much when learning new cards
If you encounter the 7-8 days card again (08:00), and you press 'good', does the timer get multiplied again (to like 17-20 days) or does it stay 7-8? I just installed it this week. Thanks for your videos 🙂
Hi ! Thank you so much for your videos ! We love your simplicity. If you have the time one day, I would love to get your opinion on this problem : When we set a new due date on a card, it's counted it the review heatmap. So today, I had to reschedule more than 600 cards and my Review heatmap considered I have reviewed them. It's very annoying because it messes the stats. I end up having reviewed 600 cards today in 0 seconds.... which doesn't make any sense. I've searched for a solution but there's none yet. Kind regards
Do you recommend burying cards to the next day instead of hitting again or hard when you have a ton of reviews to do and subsequently unburying after they're done?
Is there a way to show "review" cards before "learning" cards? I don't mind putting learning cards on the back-burner when busy, but definitely need to get reviews done everyday
Thank you so much ,Quick Question and please If you can help me . My Medical final exam to graduate medicine is about 3 months and I'm new to Anki and there is more than 25000 Cards to do what is the best setting to put? and is 250 cards per day plus studying from books will be enough؟
Because it's RE-learning. You already kinda know the information, just need to refresh it. I found for me personally that means I need a review, but I don't need to reset it to brand new essentially
I noticed that when showing everyone's learning steps, you have "AnKing" settings and "Me" settings. What are your reasons for adding an extra step in your personal settings?
Hi, thanks for the video. I am on a Mac but there is nothing in preferences in the Anki app, is this the advanced version? I mainly want to be able to hide certain words when revising. thanks
Great video, I use the AnkButler add-on after subscribing to the Anki Mastery Course, some of the preferences you suggest here are a little different from the ones that the Anki Butler automatically configures. I know that each person's preferences should be to their own liking, but are your preferences different from the ones configured automatically by Anki Butler? When Anki Butler _does_ configure the settings, does it save those settings as a default options profile or as another named profile?
The Anki Palace Butler saves them to the default options grow up. I tried not to truly recommend any one set of settings in this video and more focus on explaining. The Anki Palace Butler changes the settings to roughly what we’d recommend for someone that is just starting out and you can tweak them from there!
Does anyone know if the straight reward add on works with the V3 scheduler? It's implied it does here but there's a bunch of comments on the ankiweb page that say it doesn't.
Thanks so much for all your videos. I'm not sure why, but I'm unable to access the settings from "Anki => Preferences" (explored from 15:30 to 21:30 in the video). When I try to find these general settings through Anki => Preferences, I am brought directly to a "Leaderboard Config" window. Any idea why I'm unable to access the Preferences window to adjust the Basic, Scheduling, Network, and Backup settings?
Hi, thank you so much for your video. I have a question regarding my deck that I've been using for a couple of years. The problem is, I tend to miss days and as a result, I have accumulated a lot of future reviews. It has now reached about 2000 reviews per day, which is overwhelming. Is there a way for me to manage this deck effectively? I know I won't be able to go through all of them, but I also don't want to start over from scratch
Hello! I'm currently using these settings but I feel as if I'm spending too long on one card (>12.5 seconds) and hitting the again card too many times, which makes me think I need to see the cards more often. How do I adjust my settings so I'm retaining better?
I'm new with anki so I'm having a hard time getting the point of it, so please forgive me if I am wrong. What I understood was, Anki is used as a reviewer for a long term? Like an exam in the next 6 months? How about if I want to use it for my quizzes the next week? Can I still use it? Because from what I saw, it will take 5 days for the question to go back. So it'll not be effective if that's the case? Please help me understand. Thanks!
How many times does it taking clicking "good" for a card to leave the learning phase. I have been clicking good for 5 days in a row and the "good" button is still for 1 day. Is this supposed to happen? Should it be that the first time you hit "good" it is for one day and the second time you hit "good" it will be three days?
the straight reward add-on (says no configuration) doesn't work as settings+shift doesn't have the the rewards settings now.i installed anki 2022 in windows 10
My Learning steps are 1m 10m just like the standard, but today there was only 1 new card in one of my deck and when I answered it, it graduated instantly and showed up again as a "Learning" card. Shouldn't it only show up after 10 minutes? It kinda sucks to answer the same card 2x in a row like that, I basically just repeated the answer on automatic.
Is there an add-on to automatically adjust the Learn ahead limit? I set it to 0 after watching this video several days ago, and I find it to be effective. The downside is the "waiting" period if it's getting late at night and you want to finish up your cards.
Definitely. Understanding what those addons are actually doing is good. Many people rely on them but there’s really no evidence suggesting they’re ideal. It’s best you understand the tool you are manipulating
What I don't understand about interval is, say I again and it waits 1 minute, but I went off and did something for 5 minutes and come back and go to the next card, will it go to the same card I had just before? Or is it like an approximate 1 minute in the deck where it takes account of how long you take to do a card and shuffles that card at what it would think the 1 minute mark is?
Be careful folks, you may regreat copy paste her settings blindly. Give yourself practice without taking decks too serious before your end configurations. The ones that goes well with me are very different, im glad I didnt watch this as model for copy settings but as a guide to understand more properly how anki woks.
Hi Anking, I noticed that at 10:56 in "Relearning Phase", the interval was multiplied to "1.5" I thought it was 1.2 because in "Graduated Phase" the interval (day) was multiplied to1.2 ( 7:59 )... I got confused cause where did the "1.5" come from? I tried to look for it in the options (advanced) and only found out the "hard interval" which is set to 1.2. --does anybody know? Thanks anyhow, thanks for all the things you and your friends have done to the community!
10:25 This what would happen if we hit "Hard" from the first time on a review card: [Current interval x Hard Interval x Interval Modifier] - 15% from the Ease% of that card. Right? In 10:56 you said that if we click "Hard" then the card will end up being shown in: [1.5 x relearning step]. Are you trying to say that this card has already been answered by "Again" before?
I noticed that after enabling the V3 scheduler, my graduating interval now has the fuzz factor and will be a range from 2-4 days (set at 3 days). Anyone else noticing this?
@@AnKingMed Oh, so was this fuzz already happening even though the button used to show "3-days"? Lmao I've been using anki for 1.5 years and didn't realize
Hi, I've updated my deck to these settings but now something strange occurs. On a completely new deck I tagged 5 cards (out of 120 new cards) as wrong. Next day when i wanted to review them, 19 cards were tagged as wrong. I can't for the life of me figure out why that is. Any suggestions?
For those in the future that may have the same question, make sure that "V3 scheduler" is check marked in the preferences section of Anki (Anki --> Preferences --> scheduling --> V3 scheduler (checked))

Prerak is an influencer and he does seem to be a good guy that cares. I'm glad his content has been helpful. I'll admit all of them make higher quality videos than I do. However, I still stand by my statement that I am far more expert in understanding Anki than he or any of the other influencers.
@@AnKingMed Yeah that's fair. You also have helped me enormously in my life. I don't know where I would be without your help, so thank you. However, I don't think he's misleading anyone imo. If it worked for him and he wants to share from his experience, then doing so adds value to the medical education community and doesn't take away from it. I'm glad you made this video nevertheless, because this too adds value. I just found it unwarranted to do a "callout" as if you were "exposing" something nefarious, when imo it's not nefarious. Especially in his case, from my perspective, it doesn't seem like he cares about views at all or is trying to be trendy. He just wants to help, and he has. My two cents.
THANK YOU this is the ultimate anki guide people needs in 2021
An argument for a maximum interval would be based on how the fact that it would be a long while before you learn you have forgotten something. What are the odds that I forget a card Anki would send to 5 years, and what are the consequences if I have to recall that in 3 years only to discover I can't? Maybe it's "I don't care, and it's great if I do manage to recall it" but maybe it's also "gosh I might actually need to recall it in that interval and will be harmed". I think that determines the setting.
This is wisely put
Thank you! I'll change my learning process according to these guidelines. Amazing!
So when should you use the hard button? For cards you've seen already and gotten correct before but now are struggling with? I feel like improper use of the rating buttons contributes to my problems with Anki so some clarity would be great!
Also - super solid content, really helps brings people into the software, thank you Anking!
I personally use it when I know the card but would like to see it more often
@@AnKingMed exactly like me, especially for some specialities that I know well like cardio, neuro, etc. Specialities that we have in France since the 4th year of med school (D2). I'm actually in 7th year (we call it ECNi in France) and the "hard" button helps me, notably, with more fresh specialities like dermatology, psychiatry, and more.
Thanks for the video. The video do really introduce details very well.
I love your videos BUT would want to know: 1. how successful you are with your current Anki setting in regards to pre-clinical exams 2. how much time you do Anki per day 3. how many cards you do per day 4. Love the channel / you and your team are a SAINTS to ALL MEDICAL STUDENTS
1. I scored 260+ on step 1 (there’s a video on it). 2. I spent 2-3hrs doing reviews and the rest of the day learning new material. About 30-60min a day in clinicals. 3. In pre clinical years I was doing ~600 reviews a day and then 500 new/week. 4. Thanks :)
@@AnKingMed THANK YOU for the response. You and your team are nothing less than a motivation and I use your videos as the road map throughout my medical school journey
I would love there to be a setting whereby, when i see a review card again after say 90days, i would then like to see that card again within the next week before i send it out to 90 days again. I feel this really helps solidify.
Anking it would be so awesome if we could export the whole deck info into excel like to analyze how much time we used for all qn individual question,,how much review we need in average to solidify a content lot more and help to understand our brain and also how settings work for us...

stats function on anki shows all of that and much more
what a bleeding amazing video!!!!
I thank God I found it... I wuv you
Question: at 10:04 you set your relearning steps to 10m, but at 27:02 you set them to 30m. Which do you prefer? Thank you!
I have the same question :(
you're out there doing God's work fr!!!
This video is so helpful! Thank you so much ❤
Very helpful explanations. Thank you very much
After learning what each button does in each situation (learning phase, relearning phase and after a card graduates) I realised that when reviewing a card, I can not know in which of the situation above the card is in. One button does one thing in a phase and another thing in the other phase. Not knowing what phase the card is defeats the purpose of learning the function of the buttons.
Very helpful and intuitive, thanks a lot！
Thank you for your efforts; this video is really helpful.
I need an ANKI deck that helps me remember how to use ANKI.
Thanks a lot, wish you all the best ❤️
I'm a Canadian med student, so we don't really have the USMLE Step exams - and I'm just about to start Clerkship. I could never get the hang of Anki in preclerkship... but I've decided that doing SOME flashcards is better than none at all. I reinstalled Anki and reinstalled the v11 deck, and I'm starting fresh. Better late than never, I suppose...?
are u still using it
Great video :) thanks for all the information
Thanks for this free educational information!!
First person who doesn’t say bullshit about Anki
The legend’s back
Thanks for this video!
Thanks for calling out the influencers who come nowhere near the experience you bring
😄Gosh! the true king who tells those sophisticated mechanisms buried in long documents and many misunderstandings in the careless world.
Welcome back, also is the "automatically configure settings" download behind the paywall for the course or free to get?
The Butler Add-on which does that is part of the course.
@@AnKingMed thank you for the reply!
This is awesome 👏 thank you sir 👍🏾
Question for you: you have the learning interval at 1m 25m. I find that my average review sessions rarely ever are more than 10 minutes as I do only 6 new cards a day. What do you recommend in this situation? I feel like reducing it to say, 1m 6m might help, but I also wonder if I should just increase my new card limit to avoid relying on short term memory too much when learning new cards
Hey Please make a video on how to implement incremental learning on Anki.
Thanks for the video Anking you are amaizing
When is the hard modifier 1.5 in the relearning phase but 1.2 in the learning phase
If you encounter the 7-8 days card again (08:00), and you press 'good', does the timer get multiplied again (to like 17-20 days) or does it stay 7-8?
I just installed it this week. Thanks for your videos 🙂
Im so confused, mine has none of these settings, the layout is different, and I dont even have a preferences tab??
Starting with the recommended AnKing settings, what changes would you make for language learning (Chinese)?
What about for the MCAT? What should be the max interval in the advanced section?
The return
Hi !
Thank you so much for your videos ! We love your simplicity.
If you have the time one day, I would love to get your opinion on this problem : When we set a new due date on a card, it's counted it the review heatmap. So today, I had to reschedule more than 600 cards and my Review heatmap considered I have reviewed them. It's very annoying because it messes the stats. I end up having reviewed 600 cards today in 0 seconds.... which doesn't make any sense.
I've searched for a solution but there's none yet.
Kind regards
Unfortunately that’s just built into Anki at the moment so unless you coded an add-on to overwrite that function, there’s no easy way to fix that
@@AnKingMed Thank you for your answer Sir :)
Do you recommend burying cards to the next day instead of hitting again or hard when you have a ton of reviews to do and subsequently unburying after they're done?
Is there a way to show "review" cards before "learning" cards?
I don't mind putting learning cards on the back-burner when busy, but definitely need to get reviews done everyday
Thank you so much ,Quick Question and please If you can help me .
My Medical final exam to graduate medicine is about 3 months and I'm new to Anki and there is more than 25000 Cards to do
what is the best setting to put? and is 250 cards per day plus studying from books will be enough؟
Cool video, exactly what I needed! QQ, any reason why you don't have the re-learning phase follow the same pattern as the learning phase?
Because it's RE-learning. You already kinda know the information, just need to refresh it. I found for me personally that means I need a review, but I don't need to reset it to brand new essentially
extremely helpful thanks!!!!
I noticed that when showing everyone's learning steps, you have "AnKing" settings and "Me" settings. What are your reasons for adding an extra step in your personal settings?
I think the other one might have been my language options or my test options. I actually use the AnKing options for most of my studies
Willl these settings be good for a level maths, physics and further maths. I use it in maths for definitions and memorising concepts
thank god you made this TT
He really said let me tell these children what's up
Hi, thanks for the video.
I am on a Mac but there is nothing in preferences in the Anki app, is this the advanced version? I mainly want to be able to hide certain words when revising.
thanks
Great video, I use the AnkButler add-on after subscribing to the Anki Mastery Course, some of the preferences you suggest here are a little different from the ones that the Anki Butler automatically configures. I know that each person's preferences should be to their own liking, but are your preferences different from the ones configured automatically by Anki Butler?
When Anki Butler _does_ configure the settings, does it save those settings as a default options profile or as another named profile?
The Anki Palace Butler saves them to the default options grow up. I tried not to truly recommend any one set of settings in this video and more focus on explaining. The Anki Palace Butler changes the settings to roughly what we’d recommend for someone that is just starting out and you can tweak them from there!
@@AnKingMed Great thank you!
Does anyone know if the straight reward add on works with the V3 scheduler? It's implied it does here but there's a bunch of comments on the ankiweb page that say it doesn't.
Thanks so much for all your videos. I'm not sure why, but I'm unable to access the settings from "Anki => Preferences" (explored from 15:30 to 21:30 in the video). When I try to find these general settings through Anki => Preferences, I am brought directly to a "Leaderboard Config" window. Any idea why I'm unable to access the Preferences window to adjust the Basic, Scheduling, Network, and Backup settings?
Thank you so much bro ❤❤❤🙌
Hi, thank you so much for your video. I have a question regarding my deck that I've been using for a couple of years. The problem is, I tend to miss days and as a result, I have accumulated a lot of future reviews. It has now reached about 2000 reviews per day, which is overwhelming. Is there a way for me to manage this deck effectively? I know I won't be able to go through all of them, but I also don't want to start over from scratch
Thank you!!! Thats awesome
Hello! I'm currently using these settings but I feel as if I'm spending too long on one card (>12.5 seconds) and hitting the again card too many times, which makes me think I need to see the cards more often. How do I adjust my settings so I'm retaining better?
My preferances look nothing like yours. my version is 2.1.66
i couldnt find the basic and sheduling portion :(
I'm new with anki so I'm having a hard time getting the point of it, so please forgive me if I am wrong.
What I understood was, Anki is used as a reviewer for a long term? Like an exam in the next 6 months? How about if I want to use it for my quizzes the next week? Can I still use it? Because from what I saw, it will take 5 days for the question to go back. So it'll not be effective if that's the case? Please help me understand. Thanks!
How the new ease cards are calculated ? Why we play hard button we have un new ease 235% ? Thank !
How many times does it taking clicking "good" for a card to leave the learning phase. I have been clicking good for 5 days in a row and the "good" button is still for 1 day. Is this supposed to happen? Should it be that the first time you hit "good" it is for one day and the second time you hit "good" it will be three days?
Why don't I see "display order" in options? i have anki version 2.1.60
So i updated to 2.1.49 and when im making new cards the answers are not saving so when i want to learn these cards i have blind spot in answer field
the straight reward add-on (says no configuration) doesn't work as settings+shift doesn't have the the rewards settings now.i installed anki 2022 in windows 10
My Learning steps are 1m 10m just like the standard, but today there was only 1 new card in one of my deck and when I answered it, it graduated instantly and showed up again as a "Learning" card. Shouldn't it only show up after 10 minutes? It kinda sucks to answer the same card 2x in a row like that, I basically just repeated the answer on automatic.
Is there an add-on to automatically adjust the Learn ahead limit? I set it to 0 after watching this video several days ago, and I find it to be effective. The downside is the "waiting" period if it's getting late at night and you want to finish up your cards.
Before I commit to a 42 minute video, is any of this applicable if you are using the auto-ease factor and autoLapseNewInterval add ons?
Definitely. Understanding what those addons are actually doing is good. Many people rely on them but there’s really no evidence suggesting they’re ideal. It’s best you understand the tool you are manipulating
What I don't understand about interval is, say I again and it waits 1 minute, but I went off and did something for 5 minutes and come back and go to the next card, will it go to the same card I had just before? Or is it like an approximate 1 minute in the deck where it takes account of how long you take to do a card and shuffles that card at what it would think the 1 minute mark is?
the only king
Best video ever ❤
Be careful folks, you may regreat copy paste her settings blindly. Give yourself practice without taking decks too serious before your end configurations.
The ones that goes well with me are very different, im glad I didnt watch this as model for copy settings but as a guide to understand more properly how anki woks.
Just wondering…. What settings is best for someone studying Physics at A levels or AP examinations?
Hi Anking, I noticed that at 10:56 in "Relearning Phase", the interval was multiplied to "1.5" I thought it was 1.2 because in "Graduated Phase" the interval (day) was multiplied to1.2 ( 7:59 )... I got confused cause where did the "1.5" come from? I tried to look for it in the options (advanced) and only found out the "hard interval" which is set to 1.2.
--does anybody know? Thanks
anyhow, thanks for all the things you and your friends have done to the community!
It's determined by the phase that the card is in. SInce it is relearning, it isn't considered a graduated card now and this the 1.5x is applied.
10:25 This what would happen if we hit "Hard" from the first time on a review card: [Current interval x Hard Interval x Interval Modifier] - 15% from the Ease% of that card. Right?
In 10:56 you said that if we click "Hard" then the card will end up being shown in: [1.5 x relearning step]. Are you trying to say that this card has already been answered by "Again" before?
I don't have a "Display Order" section showing up in my deck options in Anki for Mac.
Any ideas how I can unlock this seemingly essential feature?
Is the current interval when when we hit again on review card 10m or 30d? 🤔🤔
I noticed that after enabling the V3 scheduler, my graduating interval now has the fuzz factor and will be a range from 2-4 days (set at 3 days). Anyone else noticing this?
The V3 scheduler shows the fuzz before actually scheduling (which I think is kinda nice)
@@AnKingMed Oh, so was this fuzz already happening even though the button used to show "3-days"? Lmao I've been using anki for 1.5 years and didn't realize
Yup!
sir,can i can i turn off anki scheduling to learn all the cards in a deck whenever i want to .
thank you
For some reason, hard has the interval at 1 day for new cards instead of 5 minutes.
Hi, I've updated my deck to these settings but now something strange occurs. On a completely new deck I tagged 5 cards (out of 120 new cards) as wrong. Next day when i wanted to review them, 19 cards were tagged as wrong. I can't for the life of me figure out why that is. Any suggestions?
Hey AnKing, thank you for the video. I was wondering which add-on to get to get the "display order" options in the options menu
wait hold on, may be in the video, sorry lol
For those in the future that may have the same question, make sure that "V3 scheduler" is check marked in the preferences section of Anki (Anki --> Preferences --> scheduling --> V3 scheduler (checked))
