All 4 options to test again

Anki Help

Hi All,

In all my anki decks, how can i set all 4 options to test again as:

  1. 2-3 minutes later
  2. 8 minutes later
  3. 1 day later
  4. 2 days later

or is time interval to test again not changeable [pre programable by user] and that anki algorithms will determine it?

My test date i’m studying for is less than 3 weeks but retest options are 1 month or longer which doesn’t help. To prevent pushing retest date out for 1 month or longer, I pick the 1st option which is retest in 4 minutes but that’s too often, 1 to 2 days later is ideal. how can i fix?

Before answering your question, I’m going to give you another way to think about it. –

If a card is easy enough, or you have gotten it right often enough that it’s not scheduled in the next 3 weeks – that’s great! You’ve gotten that easier card out of the way and have more time to spend on harder cards that need your attention. You want that to happen, because that’s what makes the whole spaced-repetition system work.

If you still want to restrict your intervals and control them that closely for a New card being introduced for the first time, your options for how to do that depend on whether you’re using the default SM-2 algorithm, or you have enabled FSRS.

After a card has been introduced, it follows its own schedule and if you get it right, the intervals will get longer.
