Extra Study

After you complete your Lessons and Reviews for the day, you may want to revisit items you just learned or struggled with.

This is what the Extra Study widget allows with (future) various options. We plan to include more studying options. There are two options available: Recent Mistakes and Recently Learned.

Items found within either study option will be displayed within the widget in case you want to visit items individually. .

Adjust the Date Range

On the top right of the Extra Study widget you’ll notice a date range with a calendar icon. It defaults to the last three days, inclusive, but you can change it to be whatever range within the last month.

When you click on Review within either of the above options, a Launch dialog will pop up, allowing you to filter down your custom study session more.

You can filter it down either by item type, or just by selecting/unselecting each item within the list:

Once you’re satisfied with your selections, just hit Launch.

Custom Study Review session

When you load into an Extra Study Review session, you’ll notice the banner at the top to remind you that this is an Extra Study session, which won’t count toward anything other than your memory:

It should function the same as your usual Review session.

NOTE: any Extra Study session will not be recorded and will not affect your SRS stages. But it’s still valuable to brush up when you’re motivated to do so!
