I have updated the Anki version today, agreed to use the new scheduler and now, between 1 minute and 10 minutes in all _new_ cards i get 6 minutes [see photo]. If I increase the first step (one minute) to six, the number will be 8 and so on and so forth. What the hell? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/anki2/original/2X/2/27d24b94ba190ad9adedededb9252bf9388b330e.png) EDIT: When clicking 6 minutes, it just puts the card to the list of being studied, and then clicking on it makes no progress ---

If you’re speaking about the “Hard” button in learning cards, that’t not a bug, it’ just how v2+ scheduler works: `* Learning cards have 4 buttons instead of 3 - Hard repeats the current step after the first step, and is the average of Again and Good on the first step.` [https://faqs.ankiweb.net/the-anki-2.1-scheduler.html](https://faqs.ankiweb.net/the-anki-2.1-scheduler.html) You don’t have to use this new button if you don’t want to. You can simply ignore it. ---
