Description

Boards Deadline Signal
Built for students in dedicated who want to keep review intervals aligned with a fixed exam date.

Boards Deadline Signal adds a small Reviewer overlay that shows the scheduled date for each answer button (Again, Hard, Good, Easy) and compares those dates to your Boards deadline.

It helps you quickly see whether each choice keeps you before or pushes you after your target date, so you don’t accidentally pick an interval that schedules the card beyond your exam.

Example
Again → 02-16-26 (Before deadline) Hard → 03-01-26 (Before deadline) Good → 04-15-26 (After deadline) Easy → 06-10-26 (After deadline)
