Studying

Wrap up and breaks

Stop when time runs out without leaving cards half learned, and take breaks.

Wrap up

When you have to stop soon, turn on Wrap up at the top of the session, or press W. From then on, Memorics only asks the cards you’ve already started, until each is finished, and then ends the session. Nothing is left half learned, and nothing you started is lost.

While wrapping up, the session is framed in indigo and the count at the top shows how many cards are left to finish. In spaced repetition, the cards you hadn’t started keep their schedule and stay due for next time.

Changed your mind? Press W again, or choose Keep going at the end, and the rest of the cards join again. If you leave after wrapping up, the next session carries on with the rest.

In the day’s session, Wrap up finishes the topic you’re studying, not the whole day. The end then shows how far you got, with Done for now and Keep going.

Breaks

In the day’s session, Memorics suggests a break after 25 minutes of studying: 5 minutes, and every fourth break 15 minutes. Only time spent studying counts, not time away.

A break is suggested between two topics where possible, with Take a break (B) before the next topic. In the middle of a topic, a bar at the bottom suggests it instead. If you skip a break, the next suggestion comes after 10 more minutes. You can also take a break any time with the cup at the top of the session, or B.

A break counts down on a calm screen, also in the tab’s title. It never ends by itself: once it’s over it says so, and Continue (Enter) takes you back, early too if you like. A break lasts through a reload.

A sitting shorter than 25 minutes has no breaks.
