Hi guys!  
For some reason my intervals on anki havent been working properly.  
I only use the again and the good buttons. When I press “good” it should give a interval of 10m between cards, but insted the card shows instantly.

I tried unistalling anki, switching acounts/ setting, reenstaling my decks but nothing seems to work.

This are my current settings:

My guess would be that it is due to the learn ahead limit in Preferences → Review. Change this to something smaller, e.g. 0. [Relevant part of the manual.](https://docs.ankiweb.net/preferences.html?highlight=%22learn%20ahead%20limit%22#scheduler)
