Hi everyone, I’m using type-in-the-answer cards for vocabulary practice and want to make the typing practice more strict. Currently when I make an error, Anki shows the correct answer but lets me continue without actually typing it correctly. I’m looking for a way to force typing the correct answer before moving forward. The ideal behavior would be: 1. Card shows definition → I type the term 2. If incorrect → shows correct answer BUT keeps input field active 3. Requires me to re-type the correct answer manually 4. Only after successful correct typing → proceed to next card This would create a more active learning process where I must physically type the correct answer, not just see it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! ---

Do you need the system to _force_ you to do this though? It seems like you could add a text entry box on the back of the card, and re-type the answer for yourself before grading the card Again. ---

Hey! Thanks for the suggestion - that’s a good point! I tried it but found that Anki only allows **one typing field per card**. When I add a second `{{type:}}` field on the back, it gives an error. ---

Perfect! The “Reviewer” addon is exactly what I needed! Just installed it and it works perfectly - now Anki actually forces me to type the correct answer. Thank you so much! ---
