- This video will show you a couple different methods to get through your reviews faster and stay focused
Speed Focus add-on (with pause) *for Anki 2.1: ankiweb.net/shared/info/10466... (Glutanimate's version now has the pause feature!)
If its not working on nightmode, I renamed my night mode add-on file z1496166067 and this made it so that it started working again on night mode
On 2.0, I believe you can download the add-on off anki web, then just copy the main.py file from my 2.1 version into the add-on file and it should work

Thank you for the great content, AnKing!
Dude this simple setting helps me a lot thank you bro
You have to hold down the 'shift' key when clicking on options, if the general section isn't showing up for you.
thanks!
@@sony2530 🥰
thanks. had this back in 2019, downloaded it again now.
Definitely one of my favorite add-ons, thank you! One idea would be to put in a "toggle on/off" option with a keyboard shortcut. I typically turn the add-on on or off depending on what type of cards I am doing (new vs review.)
Yeah I agree with this
OMFG THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!
To get the sound alert to play, I had to put the alert.mp3 into the "sounds" folder- just a heads up for anyone having similar issues!
I cant find the "sounds folder" :(
@@greciar471 go to Tools->Add-ons->[select/click on]Speedfocus(auto good and pause), then click view files and you should be able to see the "sounds" folder.
Thanks buddy
Is there an auto-advanced option in the windows anki version?
I really want to change the auto-good to auto-again while still keeping the pause functionality
Guys, I have Anki 2.0 and I've just copy-paste the content in main.py file from this addon shared here into the main.py file from the original one, already installed in my Anki base.
Working perfect here!
Awesome! Thanks for your input. I believe glutanimate was planning on making the original version like this after seeing our video
You just created an ANKI monster muHAHHAHAH
I've been doing thousands of cards during the pandemic
Is there an add-on code for the pause button? OR does it have to be installed manually?
I used to review 70 words of korean in 1,3 hours. With this add on I did in 30min.
I don't feel like I'm dumb anymore lol
I think this addon is broken now. On version 2.1.29. The audio doesn't work and the auto-forward feature don't work
Thank you
Unfortunately when I activate your Add-On the "Auto-Again Mode" is not working anymore. So I just wanted to have the pause feature, but the auto-again was just fine for me you know (I prefer clicking on good manually). The Option for "rate-again" is still available in options but it doesn't work anymore while reviewing (of course the field "auto-good" is on 0). Is there any way to fix this?
I am a practicing radiologist 3 years out of residency. I WISH I knew about Anki in medical school. I would have probably been better than just an average student ;) Anki has made my recent study of Japanese and Korean super fun and effective.
That is so cool that you’re still using it to learn language! I bet Anki would be great for studying radiology!
It doesn't work with the latest Anki version.
Is it possible to post the add-on code here I see it on the drive but I am not able to click on it to get the code for myself
I did NOT know addons worked on iPad. Is there a more in-depth video on this?
I've got the add-on auto advance feature on the Mac version of Anki cards. It goes to the next card after 3 or 4 seconds. No matter which setting I change, I can't speed it up to change to the next card within 1 or 2 seconds. Is there a setting for the Mac version? The iOS version works perfectly and am able to change it easily.
how to pause speed focus mode in windows... there is no option in tools menu and also the shortcut P doesn't works
Is there a way to have a source field on a type in answer question?
How do you download this addon? I couldn't download the zip file for some reason...
Is there a way to turn this off when doing new cards? Or do you just set the answer/timer interval to longer? Seems like it'd be a hassle to hit P every card. Great video!
yeah in the settings just set everything to 0
do you guys know of an add-on that can allow an option to for interval days? like i want to have an option in between "
I’m not sure I quite understand what you’re wanting, but the V2 scheduler makes it so you have a hard button even on learning cards
The keyboard shortcut for pausing is not working for me, doesn't seem like the add-on can be config'd either
You need our special version, not the one on ankiweb. See www.ankingmed.com/downloadable-content
Is there no way to change the hotkey for the pause?
UPDATE: Select your options group to default and you will not suffer like me.
I have installed the add-on manually and using the google folder, and it simply won't work. I disabled all my other add-ons with no luck. I have the most up to date version (2.1.42). Does anyone know what to do? The only thing that seems to work is if I hit "p" it says pause in the corner, but it never advances or clicks through or anything.
Is there simular feature in remnote? I really need this one
Thanks for the video! Downloaded this for the pause function but rate "again" is no longer working (rate "good" works but want to keep auto rate "again"). Could this possibly be fixed? Thanks!
Yes. At the bottom of the main.py file is code to add the pause function. I'd copy that and install the original speed focus addon and add that code to the original main.py file
@@flintfotographs cool thanks man!
@@theEstebanPeralta Hi guys, how would i change the code? All i can see is the option to download the file onto my mac
Hi!
How do I set it so it hits good automatically? I downloaded it and it only allows for "again".
Please help!
Thank you~
did you download our version from the description of this video?
for those who has newer verison of anki, just click (shift + and click on options) it will appear, i thought a second it doesn't work for me
thank you!!
Hi! I've added this add-on a million times and I just can't get it to work. I've gone one by one and disabled other add-ons too to see if they're interfering with no luck. Anything else I can do?
@The AnKing Yes :( didn't work. I've tried the original version of this add on and it didn't work either.
I just started using Anki and I went a little crazy on creating my content.... I made about 3000 cards in the past week so I have A LOT accumulated, is there an opcion in the settings where I can go trough my cards a little bit faster?
Greetings from Mexico! Love your youtube channel
If you have downloaded the speed focus review add-on, the settings for each deck will have new options to increase the speed of the timer so you go faster. You might also want to watch "How to Skip a Day" on our channel so you can spread those cards out over a few weeks. 3000 is a lot!
anking I am learning chinese now, would love it if you were to make a video for us chinese learners to have an idea on what card type would be best suitable and which settings would be best
I can add that to my list! I haven’t done much Chinese studying with Anki but I’d recommend searching to see if there’s any good premade decks out there. I found a great medical Chinese one by searching on google. As for settings, I’d recommend the same settings I do for medical students :) (I’m my “Recommended Settings” video)
@@AnKingMed Thank You sir! Will stay tuned for more
Hi anking!
I'm creating cloze cards and adding some images to the "extra", but they don't appear when I review those cards. Do you know how to solve this?
Thank you!!
Hey! I don't entirely know how to fix this problem. My best guess is that something in the coding of the card is not quite right. One thing you could do is go through the browser and see if you have multiple note types and figure out which ones are giving you trouble and then change them to a similar note type that is working correctly. You could also download our note template and use that instead since I know the coding works on those. If you're confused, send us an email and we'd be glad to attempt to fix this!
@@AnKingMed Okay! I'll try that, but where can I download your note template? :D
Our google drive is listed in the about section of our page
Is there a heat map add-on now available for 2.1?
Yes! Check out our video on heatmap. There’s a link to the download in the video description
could you provide the link to pause speed mode add on ,please?
There’s a download link in the video description
Love your work AnKing! & I've been waiting for the pause feature 😍 Quick question when I hit 'P' the pause feature doesn't activate. I've looked through my customized shortcuts for any hotkey overlap but didn't see any. What can I do to make the pause function trigger on command? Please lmk whenever you get a chance!!
1. Do you have our version? It won't work with the ankiweb version
2. Do you have the nightmode add-on turned on? It seems to have issues with that
@@AnKingMed Yup I updated today to the newest version of Anki & I'm using the (auto good & pause) version. As for nightmode I deleted the addon so it shouldn't be a problem! I spent an embarassing amount of time tryna get it to work but no bueno! & this is the addon I've been waiting for too lol
@@oballer Sorry to hear that.. I'm using it on my version right now and its working fine. Try getting rid of all other add-ons (just drag them to a folder on your desktop) and then set up the add-on in the options and hit p while reviewing. You should get a tooltip that says "Paused"
@@AnKingMed Ok I'll try that! Also I just realized when I hit 'P' on my keyboard it won't pause - BUT will do so when I manually click on tools > pause speed focus mode. I wonder if the problem is only in the hotkey & not in the add-on itself 🤔 & thanks again for all your help, you're a legend!
@@oballer My guess is you have an add-on conflict. One way to test that is to drag all your add-ons out to a folder on your desktop so you only have the speed focus add-on installed and then see if it works.
HOw to pause?? Im not getting that option
I'm using anki 2.0.52, how do I install this? I downloaded the files from the google drive link, added them into the add-on folder in anki and restarted the app but it doesn't show up under "General"...
I don't think this will work with 2.0 unfortunately. If I find a way, I will post a second link in the description!
I have a 2.0 and it works just fine. Download the addon from ankiwebb and then copy the script of "pause" feature from main.py file from Anking version to your version.
@@Makasara The anking wasnt working with night mode on 2.1 so i tried this and it worked. Thanks !
Hi AnKing, I downloaded the addon but there is no sound when it hits the time limit. Do you know how I can fix this?
Check your settings on your deck under "General" and see if the box "Automatically play audio" is checked. Check your add-on file and see if the audio clip is in the folder and if it plays on your computer.
@MegaNakku After you've installed the add-on go to tools->addons->click on the addon name-> "view files." There's a folder "sounds" there
Hello, I cannot access the folders from the link you provided. Is there a way I can find them elsewhere or maybe a google drive? Thanks.
@The AnKing Thank you! It was not showing up on my laptop for some reason on your website, but on my desktop it worked! Last question, the alert and show answer time difference needs to be at least 2 seconds for the alert to actually play for me. How did you get it to play with a 1 second difference between the two? If I set it to 5 second alert and 6 second show answer, the alert does not play before the card flips. Thanks!
@@HA-fx7io It may be that you need a shorter alert? I honestly haven't played with it that much sorry!
Hey, for some reason I can't use the P key to pause or configurate on my controller, the only way I can pause it is "tools -- pause speed focus mode"
Probably due to another add-on conflict that's also using "P"
@@AnKingMed I found it, the "Extended Tag Add/Edit Dialog" add on
@@M_Ortega strong work man!
Are there alternatives to Tomato One for Android and Windows users?
I’m not sure. Just look up pomodoro timer for Windows. I’m sure there is
Has anyone found that the pause no longer works? I havent changed any shortcuts with the shortcut addon; there isnt even a dialouge box in the bottom left that says pause
Pause only seems to work if I go to the Tools menu and click on it. The keyboard shortcut does not work for me. Using Anki 2.1.29 on PC.
@@wnevob i am also on 2.1.29; ive just been hitting the E key to pull up the editing menu, not as fluid as having the pause button sadly
This add-on is not working for my decks. I used the 40 Add-ons download, but I cannot get the Speed Focus to work. Any ideas?
The most likely thing is that you need to update Anki to the latest version.
I just updated to 2.1.23 today. Unless I’m missing something that should be fine. Thanks!
Hey Doc,
Thanks for great content as always! My Anki Usage has improved substantially thanks to your channel!
How difficult would it to tweak the add-on to accept intervals of tenths of seconds?
When reviewing my Mandarin Vocabulary, I have Show answer to 2 sec and Mark 'good" at 2 sec
If I can shed half a seconds on each, I can save 5000 seconds on each run - and better yet, improve my speed recognition!
Oo that's not a bad idea! I'm not a coder at all so I'm not sure how you could modify it, but I image it wouldn't be that difficult. Try posting on the r/Anki subreddit
@@AnKingMed Pushing my luck here, but any chance you can post it? You have a higher street cred on r/Anki 😂
Either way, Thanks in advance!
Hey can you please help with heatmap install. I am lost
You need to manually install it by dragging and dropping the heatmap folder into the addons folder. We have a video on how to do that if you need to visualize it
Is there a way to make the addon to hit "hard" instead of "good"? That would be very useful. Thanks so much.
Yeah download the one from the link in the description instead of the one on ankiweb
@@AnKingMed I don't know have to dowload the file I need because it seems to have many files in that link.
@@AnKingMed Addon from the link in the description is intended to hit 'Good' )) But it doesn't auto rate on 2.1.49 though. Ankiweb's addon is intended to and actually does auto hit 'Again' (and there it works for some reason).
Would also like to be able to set any of the four rating buttons (Again, hard, good and easy) to be automatically hit in speed focus mode.
But how can we accomplish this?
No sound or alert is showing
It isnt working with night mode. How exactly do you rename the night mode addon?? SUperr noob here,
tools->add-ons->click "night mode" then click "view files" Then rename that folder so there is a z in front of the numbers
The P shortcut for the Pause button isn't working for me. I can still pause but I have to click on the menu option which is cubersome. I copied all the code into the original speedfocus file and uninstalled nightmode but that didn't fix the problem. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
My name is Jacob and I'm a patreon if that helps things. Thanks!
Hmm... it could be conflicting with one of your other addons and there’s not really a way for me to test that. Try toggling half your addons off and on to see which one could be causing the problems
Yeah I'm having the same issue and toggling the other add-ons (as in temporarily disabling them) doesn't seem to be working. If it helps I downloaded the earlier folder for the add-on (i.e. not the .addon file)
@@loganarnold2294 It's either a nightmode conflict or a conflict with another keyboard shortcut you have set in another add-on. If you're not already, I'd recommend updating to 2.1.20 so that you're on the latest version that has built-in nightmode and then I'd toggle off all your other add-ons and test it
I keep getting this error "" Error installing speedfocus_autogood_pause (1).ankiaddon: Invalid add-on manifest""
I just updated it so try it again and let me know if it doesn't work
@@AnKingMed That worked you are amazing. Quick question why would you want it auto good instead of auto again. If you took long to answer a question wouldn't that mean you should want to see it again
It looks like it is working fine for you on night mode, but it is only working on normal mode for me. Any idea why this might be? thanks!
This is also not working for me on night mode. I am using anki 2.0 is there a work-around?
I have no idea sorry.. I’m not a coder and someone else made this for me. It could be cause I’m on 2.1?
Update: I renamed the night mode file z1496166067 and this made it so that it started working again on night mode

is there a reason why it does not make a sound on mine laptop? i haven't modified any settings
Move the sound file into the sound folder.
Here's how to do that: In Anki go to Tools->Add-ons->[select/click on]Speedfocus(auto good and pause), then click view files and you should be able to see the "sounds" folder.
@@JasonVaysberg thank you bro this really helped me out
bruh how do you actually install this? please make a tutorial for including that part? many of us arent CS majors lol
Haha sorry! I’m not a CS guy either so I feel you. Check out our video on “installing add ons (including manually)”

is it still possible to get this add on? the link doesnt work
Yes, I don't know why the link stopped working but I reuploaded it and posted a new link. Sorry about that!
The AnKing no worries, thanks so much!!
can i add this addon to custom study session ?
I'm not sure about custom study sessions. We don't use them very often if ever. I'd suggest trying it because I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work.
@@AnKingMed i tried adding the add-on, and it worked perfectly fine. But you cannot add the addon before you start your Anki sesh. After clicking "study now", then click options in the lower right corner, and from there the settings can be adjusted.
I cant get mines to even work its not advancing to the next card
You on Anki 2.1? Did you set the timer in the options settings
@@AnKingMed I am on 2.1 but what I did to get it to work was I added the original add-on and the modified version and just copied the files from the modified version to the original
how is this video helping me if im watching it while procrastinating on my reviews? 🤔
Hahahaha you win the award for best comment!
Is anyones pause button not working?
Check the video description for the instructions regarding the nightmode add-on
:( I would love to switch to 2.1... but load balancer :(
Load balancer is on 2.1 now!
Anyone else cant pause or is it just me?
It seems doesn't work
Doesn't work anymore with mac
Make sure you download the version off our website. It's working fine on my mac
@@AnKingMed Thank you for your reply and yes that what I did. I got it from your website but doesn't work. Please I really need it. Thank you
Make sure you’ve installed it correctly
06.11.21 There are 2 problems that you may have
1. Alert sounds won’t play
open add-on -> Speed focus -> view file -> put the Alert.mp3 to “sounds” folder
2. “P” won’t work
It may conflict with some addon. So first open add-on -> Speed focus -> view file -> open main.py -> roll to the end and then you will see
mw.form.menuTools.addAction('Pause speed focus mode', pause, ‘P’
I change P to Q, and it works @@ don't know why, haha
btw, I'm using anki 2.1.48, so it means add-on still works ^^
It doesn't work for me on night mode, any idea why?
No idea.. night mode has conflicts with a lot of stuff unfortunately :/
Update: I renamed the night mode file z1496166067 and this made it so that it started working again on night mode
