Why expanding review intervals are useful
Standard mode schedules reviews after 1, 3, 7, 14, 30, and 60 days. The gaps widen as recall is expected to become more stable. Exam mode scales the pattern to fit between the study date and the day before the exam while removing duplicate dates. This provides a usable first plan, but it cannot know whether a particular fact was easy or difficult for you.
After each session, move forgotten material forward and let confidently recalled material wait longer. That performance feedback matters more than following a fixed calendar perfectly. If a session is missed, resume from the current day instead of cramming every overdue review at once. Memly automates this adjustment from your card history so the daily queue reflects what is most likely to need attention.
Frequently asked questions
How many reviews do I need?
The calculator proposes six, but successful retrieval matters more than a fixed count. Add an earlier review whenever you cannot recall an item.
Can I use it the day before an exam?
A meaningful spaced schedule needs at least two days. With less time, prioritize high-value topics and active recall without sacrificing sleep.
What is an ICS file?
It is a calendar format accepted by Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, and many other apps. The download contains all-day review events.
What if I miss a review?
Restart from today, focus on weak items, and shorten their next interval. Do not treat the schedule as a reason to complete an unrealistic backlog.
