Select the most suitable learning algorithm and learn how to change anki time intervals to accelerate your studies

Updated over a week ago

Anki Pro offers several learning algorithms that are designed to optimize your study sessions. Knowing how to change anki intervals based on your specific situation and goals will help you achieve your goal faster. Although there is no specific setting on how to change intervals on Anki Pro, you can still switch between various preset algorithms made to accomodate every possible condition. Here are the two general types:

Here's a rule of thumb: if you have a deadline for studying cards, opt for the algorithm without spaced repetition. However, if your study goals are long-term, it's advisable to use the algorithm with spaced repetition.
