**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**  
While using Ankiweb, I accidentally clicked GOOD instead of AGAIN. I would like to be able to retrieve that card and correct my answer. I suppose this could happen in any version of the app.

**Describe the solution you’d like**  
A “Retrieve Previous” button.

**Describe alternatives you’ve considered**  
I have not considered alternatives.

In desktop Anki, you can press Ctrl-Z during studying to “undo the answer-card action”, which is what you seek. I don’t see an equivalent in AnkiWeb.

Thank you. Unfortunately, I tend to use AnkiWeb for the majority of my reviewing, so I’d like to see this enhancement made in AnkiWeb. But I appreciate learning that it’s possible in desktop.
