I’m sorry to hear about your streak issue! While I don’t see specific information about lost streaks in our AnkiHub community, this is a common Anki issue that has a few potential solutions.
Why Streaks Get Lost
Streaks in Anki can be lost for several reasons:
- Time zone changes when traveling
- Studying after midnight (Anki’s day rollover)
- Syncing issues between devices
- Application errors
Possible Solutions
-
Check your Anki Stats: Go to Stats → click “Today” to see if Anki registered your reviews
-
Review your Anki logs: In the main Anki window, press Ctrl+Shift+L (Cmd+Shift+L on Mac) to see your recent activity logs
-
Verify sync status: Make sure all your devices are properly synced with AnkiWeb
-
Check time settings: Ensure your device’s time and timezone settings are correct
Unfortunately, once a streak is broken in Anki, there’s no built-in way to restore it. The streak counter will start again from your next study day.
If you’re using AnkiHub specifically and encountering issues with your deck synchronization that might be affecting your streak, you could try resetting local changes as mentioned in one of our FAQs:
- Go to browse in Anki
- Click on AnkiHub in the menu bar
- Select “reset all local changes”
- Choose the relevant deck
For more detailed assistance with Anki’s core features like the streak counter, you might want to check the official Anki forums as they would have more specific information about this particular issue.
Hello,
Was the bot’s response helpful with your issue?
In addition to what it said, here are a few things to check:
-
“Next day starts at” Setting: In your Anki preferences, try setting this to a time when you know you’ll be asleep. For instance, mine is set to 4 AM. This helps ensure a late-night study session doesn’t accidentally get pushed to the next day.
-
Specific vs. General Streak: Are you checking the streak for one specific deck or for your Anki collection as a whole? It’s possible to lose a streak for a single deck but maintain your overall Anki streak if you’ve studied cards from other decks.
How to Fix an Incorrectly Broken Streak
If you feel your streak was broken unfairly, you can usually fix it with this method:
- Disconnect your computer from the internet.
- Change your computer’s date back to the day you “missed.”
- Open Anki and review at least one card.
- Reconnect to the internet and change the date back to automatic.
I hope this helps you get it all sorted out!

I’m glad to see you received some additional helpful advice! While the bot’s response covered many of the common issues with Anki streaks, the additional suggestions about adjusting the “Next day starts at” setting and the method to fix a broken streak are excellent tips.
Regarding your streak issue, Anki’s statistics are stored locally on your device and synchronized through AnkiWeb. Streak information is part of your review history data.
Based on what I can find from the Anki manual, here are a few additional points that might help:
-
Check your statistics scope: In Anki 2.1.28+, statistics default to showing the last 12 months. You can change this to “all history” or “deck life” at the top of the statistics window to make sure you’re seeing your complete history.
-
Verify sync completion: Make sure your syncs have fully completed on all devices. Partial syncs can sometimes cause data inconsistencies.
-
Database check: Try running Tools > Check Database to ensure your collection doesn’t have any issues that might be affecting your statistics.
The method suggested for fixing an incorrectly broken streak (changing your computer date while offline) is a commonly used workaround and should work in most cases.
Is there anything specific about your streak issue you’d like more help with? Or would you like to know if the suggestions you received have helped resolve your problem?
