Question about daily reviews

I recently installed Anki to mine Japanese vocab from content I consume.

I was wondering if it’s normal that Anki reviews show up once everyday. I used wanikani before and I’m still used to do reviews at least twice a day.

I’m was bit confused when I set up my learning steps (5m, 20m, 1h).

Even when I press again, the card would show up in the same session at the end instead of 5 or 20 minutes later.

Go to Settings/Preferences and set Learn ahead limit to 0. That setting moves your cards forward if none are left. The default is 20 mins and that’s why you were seeing them before that time has elapsed. See docs.ankiweb.net.

I agree with you it’s confusing. It has a < sign there to signify learn ahead limit but as a new user I always thought it just meant less than x mins (but still higher than x-1 mins).

Yes, for Review cards (cards that have been introduced and studied before today), it is normal to only see them once per day when you get them correct. Studying - Anki Manual
