Every word in your deck follows its own schedule. Once you rate a card, NewLexi works out the next review date: the more confident your answer, the further the word moves away.
The interval ladder
The pause before the next review grows step by step: 1, 3, 7, 15, 30, 60 days. Every successful recall moves the word one step further.
Your rating sets the interval
There are four buttons at the bottom of a card: «Forgot», «Hard», «Recall», «Easy». It isn’t a grade for you - it’s a hint for the algorithm.
- «Forgot» - the word comes back tomorrow and starts the ladder over.
- «Hard» - the word comes back tomorrow but stays on the same step.
- «Recall» - the word moves to the next step.
- «Easy» - the word skips a step ahead.
Why not all the words at once
The daily plan is built from words due today plus a small portion of new ones. Do them all at once and tomorrow’s load doubles - that’s why the daily portion is capped.
