Spaced Repetition System FAQ
Is the SRS feature free to use?
Yes, you can access our core Spaced Repetition System and start reviewing Japanese flashcards immediately without creating an account or paying any fees.
How many reviews should I do per day?
We recommend clearing your SRS queue every single day. The number of reviews will depend on how many new words you learn daily, but consistency is key. Even 15 minutes a day yields massive results over time.
Can I use SRS to learn Japanese grammar?
Absolutely. While SRS is famous for kanji and vocabulary, reviewing full Japanese sentences is one of the most effective ways to internalize grammar rules and natural phrasing.
What happens if I miss a few days of reviews?
If you miss days, your review queue will pile up because the scheduled items become overdue. Just focus on clearing the backlog at your own pace. The algorithm will automatically adjust once you review them.
How is this different from traditional flashcards?
Traditional physical flashcards require you to review the entire deck manually, often wasting time on easy words. An SRS digitally tracks your memory of each individual card and schedules them optimally.
Does the system work for complete beginners?
Yes, complete beginners can use the SRS to memorize hiragana and katakana characters rapidly, providing the perfect foundation before moving on to kanji and vocabulary.
