Agreed! we are working on that.
I’m going to put this on tope of my kids’ terrible drawings, and you shall become my one true child.
Now THATS what I like to hear
Before you bin that we’d all love to see your A/B testing conversions, and can anyone who buys it get a special Chuck Norris flare ![]()
Thank you Koichi for this update!
ありがとうございます🙇
Thanks to this, it’s way easier to memorize newly learned words. I do not always have the time to get my review count to zero, so prioritizing apprentice kanji’s/vocabs is such a blessing.
After having tried it for a week (and having a couple rough days where I wasn’t able to study as much as usual), I’m very pleased with how the priority review display feels in action! It feels like it made the whole process a lot more comprehensible to me, and I feel much more confident in knowing how things are going to work when I speed up and slow down. I think this will help me a lot going forward, it takes out a lot of my anxiety about overwhelming myself.
For the first couple days I think I actually misunderstood the counter, and was adding the review counter + the priority reviews into one number in my head
so I was thinking I had twice as many reviews to do compared to what was actually there… I wonder if making the review number a larger font size or something might help to mitigate that? Or parenthesis or something to imply a subset of the whole, like 63 (
61)
Anyway, I realized my error, and now my brain has settled on something like “I have 63 reviews to do, 61 of which are egg reviews”……. thanks brain, I guess they’re egg reviews now ![]()
ohh, that’s a good point. I could see that happening pretty easily. Thank you for sharing your brain, I’m going to keep an eye on that.
I think I feel the need to respond:
You’ve actually made it easier to cheat in the way you’re concerned about by not returning the hover function. Because now, to see how long until our next review for a particular item is, we have to actually go to the page of that item. That forces a review before a real review.
In my case, I used it to gauge immediacy of kanji unlock progress with radicals, so as to know when I would have a flood of new lessons. I have no way to gauge when new lessons will be incoming, now.
No, using the lesson limit doesn’t fix the problem.
No, anything related to review counts doesn’t fix the problem.
I would look at the time until review of the radicals so as to know when they would go Guru and I’d have more kanji Lessons coming up. I would do the same for kanji to know when I would have more vocab Lessons coming up. It let me judge what workload I wanted, and was especially useful for radicals → kanji because I normally do radical lessons as soon as they are available. But, I do other lessons on a daily cadence.
Removing the hover features destroys the very use it actually served. And, you’re ideas about how to “return the feature” don’t actually bring back it’s use at all, which was related to Lessons, not Reviews.

And, with the hover, I didn’t have to go to the page and accidentally review. I could actually use the hover to know not to look at the answers, so as to keep from cheating.
I miss the hover as well.
