Limit on the number of cards for training

Add a limit on the number of cards for training. Let's say I have 1000 cards in my deck, but I want to learn 5-10 cards a day. Add a function that I can adjust this myself.

I would really appreciate this feature too. One of the biggest issues for me is not knowing how many cards I have left to review or when I am actually “done” for the day. I like DuoCards a lot, but the current system can make a study session feel endless because there is no clear daily goal or endpoint. It would be great to see something like “25 cards left today” or to be able to set a daily review limit. Even just showing the number of cards currently due for review would make a big difference. It would give users a clear sense of progress and make it much easier to stay consistent without feeling like they should keep reviewing indefinitely. I hope you consider adding this. It seems like a relatively small feature that could significantly improve the learning experience.

It would be usful or the ability to spread reviews over several days or set a maximum number of cards to review per day. For example, after a longer absence, seeing several thousand cards due for review can be overwhelming — it would be great to be able to spread them out over a period of, say, a few days.

I came here to say this myself. I find the app tedious and have stopped using it because while I want to add lots of new words as and when I find them, I can't memorise too many at once, and it makes me lose interest. 7-10 words would be the perfect amount. Any more, and I find myself tapping through just to get to the end.

the limit should be user defined in my opinion - im ok with much more than 10 but still not too many

I'll bump this thread.I would also like to limit the number of words I study at a time. This allows me to remember them better. A large number of cards create spam.The suggested option is not suitable because it takes a lot of time. I don't want to constantly do things manually; the words themselves are not important to me, but their number is. Reword has this feature, and it is very convenient. Please add it.

Hi Adam, thank you for your suggestion! Why do you want this feature? I'm asking to understand better. If it's simply to study certain cards at a specific time, we already have a filter option where you can choose exactly the set of cards you want to learn. I'm adding some screenshots to show you. :) — Michaela

In response to this, personally I find it's not about categorising words or word types because in natural conversation you get exposed to all different types of words and have to think on your feet. I don't mind a mix. It's more about cutting back the volume. Too many = overwhelm.

Hi Parisa, the filter feature is designed for this. You can sort the cards into different folders and filter them to choose what you want to learn. I'm adding screenshots to help you find it more easily. ✌️ On another note, this platform is for suggesting new features. If you have a question in the future, please use our helpdesk section in the app instead. Cheers! Michaela from DuoCards

Ya but by filtr i am not able to reduce number of cards to learn by one day. Even if i select one grup of cards by filtr after review the i see i my dashboard ather cards from differents Groups to learn which is diamotivating. Similar after a longer absence, seeing several thousand cards due for review can be overwhelming
