Description

Forced Break helps you study in focused batches instead of marathon sessions. After you answer a set number of cards, it automatically sends you back to the deck list so you actually step away and rest.

Features:

  • Automatic break after a chosen number of cards. When you hit the limit, Forced Break returns you to the deck list and shows how many cards you reviewed along with your accuracy for that batch (percent correct).
  • Live countdown in the menu bar. A "[ Break in X ]" menu updates after every card so you always know how many remain before your next break.
  • Customizable limit. Open the Forced Break menu and choose "Set Card Limit…" to pick any number. Your choice is saved between sessions.
  • Optionally, No early escape. While reviewing, the shortcuts and buttons that jump to the deck list are blocked, so you finish the batch before resting.
