How practice works
The rules (read this first)
- Each phrase is tracked separately. Every phrase has its own score from 0 to 21. The ring under the question shows progress for this phrase only.
- Each I Know = +1 point on that phrase. Tap I Know when you remembered the answer. The ring fills a little more.
- 14 points = Mastered. Tap I Know 14 times on the same phrase (not 14 different phrases) and that phrase is mastered.
- 21 points = Expert. Keep going on the same phrase until 21 I Know taps — that is the highest level.
- This Week & This Month count mastered phrases — not every tap. Your goal bar moves +1 only when a phrase reaches 14 points (mastered) or you tap Already know. Example: 10 I Know taps on 10 different phrases adds to your total Points, but This Week stays the same until you master at least one phrase.
- Why isn't my bar moving? You are earning points on the ring, but the weekly/monthly bar waits until you finish a phrase (14 points or Already know).
Your goal: 0 / week and 0 / month means master that many phrases — not that many random taps.
Quick example
You tap I Know on the phrase:
- Points +1 — your total points go up (last card in the top row).
- Ring fills — that phrase earns 1 point toward 14.
- After 14 I Know taps on the same phrase, it is mastered — This Week / This Month +1.
- After 21 I Know taps on the same phrase, it becomes Expert.
- Already know — skip straight to Expert; counts as +1 for This Week / This Month.
Points — total earned across all phrases. +1 on each I Know.
The ring — how well you know this phrase (0 to 21).
Week & Month — phrases mastered toward your goal. 100% = target reached.
