Thank you for your question about the changing new card count in Anki. This can indeed be confusing!

Why Your New Card Count Changes

The fluctuation in your new card count (from 1000 to 1169) is likely due to how Anki handles siblings and cloze deletions:

  1. Siblings: When you have multiple cards generated from a single note (like cloze deletions), Anki counts each of these as separate cards.

  2. Card vs Note Count: As explained in this FAQ topic:

    This just has to do with the difference between what “note” versus “card” means in Anki. There are roughly 28,800 notes in the deck, but the number 35,000 refers to the number of cards in the deck.

  3. Daily Changes: If you’re creating new notes or modifying existing ones that generate multiple cards (like adding more cloze deletions), this will increase your total card count.

How to Check Your Actual Card Count

To see an accurate count of your cards:

  1. Go to the Browse screen in Anki
  2. On the left side, select the deck you want to check
  3. The status bar at the bottom will show you the number of cards displayed

You can also:

  • Filter by “New” cards to see specifically how many new cards remain
  • Look at both the card count and note count to understand the difference

Daily Limits vs. Total Cards

It’s important to understand that the daily new card limit (set in deck options) only controls how many new cards are introduced each day, not the total number of cards in your deck. Your total card count may continue to increase if you’re adding new content.
