Practice, pause, and see Review results

A Review gives you a set of Cards to work through. The useful part is trying to recall or apply an idea before you compare your answer with the saved one.

Try before you reveal

Read the question and make a real attempt. You might say an answer aloud, write down your reasoning, or use the response controls shown for the Card. Reveal or check the answer when you are ready.

For example, if a Card asks what happens to a cell placed in a saltier solution, predict the direction of water movement first. Then compare your explanation with the answer. If you remembered the result but not why it happens, return to the Note and improve the explanation.

For a Typed Card, the app checks whether your response matches the saved answer. A different phrase can express the same idea and still miss an exact match. Read the expected answer before moving on. If your wording is different but your reasoning is right, choose Self Grade and pick the grade that honestly fits. Choosing Next continues without that self-grade; the app may count an unmatched typed response as Again in the results.

Choose a grade

Choose the grade that matches your recall:

• Again: you could not remember or answer it.
• Hard: you remembered, but it took effort.
• Good: you remembered it.
• Easy: it felt simple.

In an SM2 Review, your grade helps set when the Card appears again. When a result shows schedule changes, use that information to decide what to revisit; a grade is not proof that you have mastered an idea. A Redo from a completed Custom Review starts a separate practice session and does not change spaced-repetition scheduling. Before revealing an answer, you can choose Skip for now when it is available. The app asks you to answer the last remaining Card to finish.

Pause and continue

To stop midway, choose Pause review and wait for the app to finish saving and return you to the Reviews list. If a save or pause message reports a problem, follow it and check the session state before trying again; a displayed change is not always a confirmed save.

To continue an unfinished Review, open Custom Reviews or SM2 Reviews, find it under Not Started / In progress, and choose Continue. If you cannot find it, check the Review kind, search text, and state filter.

Use your results

After the last answer, the results page shows your Average selected grade, average response time, committed attempts, and saved schedule changes. Your average grade is the average of the grades you picked; it does not measure answer accuracy. Needs another look lists items you rated Again or Hard. The next schedule shows when reviewed Cards are due again.

The app calls each prompt a review unit. One List Card can make several prompts, so the unit count can be higher than the Card count. Open Interaction summary to see details by Card type, such as hints, reveals, and correct blanks.

To return to a saved result, open Reviews → Saved reviews → Completed, select a Review, then choose Stats. This view shows how many questions were completed, how many Cards were in the Review when it was made, which are still available, and session history. Redo all cards or Redo difficult cards makes a new Review from the original set; it does not reopen the finished session.
