I want my cards to be shown in chronological order no matter what

Anki Scheduling
1

I’m aware this is probably an extreme noob question and I apologise if I’m wasting your time.
What I want is whether I am starting afresh or reviewing cards in the decks I make I would like it so that Anki makes me learn or review them in chronological order ( ie the first card I literally made appears first, the second appears second , the third appears third and so on)

I’m guessing there is a simple way to do this but don’t know how

Any help around this would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks a lot

Josh

I don’t know if reviews are affected but you can show new cards after reviews and show new cards in order added.

Anki won’t show you the review cards in chronological order, SRS just don’t work that way. However, you can experiment with some options:

Thanks for the response. It still is not working as I intend. Right now, I aim to frequently reset my deck of cards and have them appear in chronological order from first created to last created. Sounds silly, but that’s how I am learning at the moment. However, your advice is not working. When I reset my cards they appear in a random order

Thanks for taking the time to reply, I cannot find a settings section called “display order”. Where is that? I have gone to both preferences and the options icon at the side of the decks and I have tried on both phone and mac to no avail

It’s under deck options.

V3 scheduler offer more options than V2 scheduler. I recommend you to upgrade (if you’re not up to date) and using V3 scheduler.
