Iâll help you with your question about Ankiâs default review settings. This seems to be about general Anki settings rather than AnkiHub specifically, but I can provide some guidance.
Looking at your screenshot, I can see youâre in the deck options and want to restore the default learning steps and intervals for new cards.
Let me search for relevant information:

Let me search specifically for Ankiâs default learning steps:

I see youâre looking for the default Anki settings for review intervals, particularly the learning steps. This is actually a general Anki question rather than an AnkiHub-specific question, but I can help you with that.
According to the Anki manual, the default learning steps for new cards are:
For graduating interval (when a card leaves the learning phase), the default is:
For the Easy interval (when you press âEasyâ on a new card), the default is:
The example you mentioned â10sec-1min-10min-4dâ is not actually the default Anki setting but might be a custom setting you were using or one that came with a particular deck.
You can reset your deck options to default by:
Alternatively, you can manually set the learning steps:
1m 10m (for the default)If youâre using AnkiHub decks, they might use recommended settings that are different from the default Anki settings, as seen in this reference post.
Does this help with your issue? Let me know if you need further clarification!
Hi,
The screenshot shows that your new cards are following 1-minute and 10-minute intervals, instead of the 10s 1m 10m 4d steps youâre aiming for.
To better understand the situation, I have a quick question: are you using the FSRS feature? Just below the settings you sent me, there should be FSRS options. Could you tell me if they are active?
If you are NOT using FSRS:
You can fix this by simply replacing your current Learning steps (currently 1m 10m) with 10s 1m 10m 4d. This will apply the correct intervals to all new cards.
If you ARE using FSRS:
FSRS is a new algorithm designed to make your reviews more efficient. When you optimize it, itâs normal for your review intervals to increase. This allows you to maintain your desired retention rate while spending less time reviewing.
However, FSRS doesnât work well with learning steps longer than one day. If youâre using it, itâs best to use these learning steps: 10s 1m 10m.
A note on Relearning steps: This setting determines the new interval for a card after you get it wrong during a review. You might want to set this to just 10m, since youâve already learned the card before. However, you can also set these to be the same as your Learning steps if you prefer.
If youâre still unsure about any of this, could you please send me a screenshot of your entire settings page? A screenshot of a review card showing the large intervals would also be very helpful so we can confirm if FSRS is working as expected.
Let me know how it goes and if you have any other questions!
Hey man thank you for getting back to me @MarcosZan
I am still a little unsure about settings. Here is a screenshot of my complete settings. I am just trying to get back to my old days of anki settings. I think my review interval settings got modified becuase i imported a deck with some preset settings in it.
Everything looks normal.
The issue might be that you werenât using FSRS before, which is now active, as shown in this screenshot.
FSRS is a new and improved algorithm, so we recommend everyone use it. It will make your review intervals more efficient. Most of the time, it will increase them while still maintaining your retention rate.
Here is a great video by AnKing that explains these Anki settings: AnKing Anki Settings Video
However, if youâd really like to revert to the old settings, you just need to disable FSRS.

Thank you for checking through my settings, i really appreciate it. I felt very skeptical with how the intervals were looking. I have been using anki since 2020 essentially man. Thank you again!
Iâve used Anki for a long time too, and I was very skeptical about using FSRS at first. But with the right settings and a little bit of trust, itâs amazing! I save so much time now and wouldnât go back to the older algorithm. So I really recommend learning a little about FSRS; itâs worth it!
But the older algorithm isnât bad, so see what best suits you!
@MarcosZan
So does this interval look normal/okay to you? This is a brand new card.
Are your settings the same as in the screenshot? If so, that seems normal. The âAgainâ interval is 10 seconds and the âGoodâ interval is 1 minute, which matches whatâs configured in your learning steps. The âHardâ interval is automatically calculated based on the other two.
The âEasyâ interval depends on how the algorithm has adapted to your review patterns. For example, I use FSRS, and my âEasyâ interval is usually around 17 days.
One thing to point out is that Iâm not entirely sure how Anki behaves with such short learning steps. Intervals of 10s, 1m, and 10m seem really repetitive and close to one another. As mentioned in the video I recommended to you, having just one 10 or 15-minute step is usually enough. I personally use only a 10-minute step. For example, take a look at my intervals for a brand-new card:
All right I think this is fow FSRS is programmed, thanks for double checking, I will trust the algorithm
