Hi Omarkhalidraza! When you unsuspend cards from Smart Search, they go to their original deck location. Let me explain how this works:

Where Unsuspended Cards Go

When you unsuspend cards using Smart Search:

  • The cards return to their original parent deck (the deck they were assigned to before suspension)
  • They don’t automatically go into a special folder or subdeck
  • They simply become available for review in their home deck

Options for Managing Unsuspended Cards

If you want to organize cards you’ve unsuspended through Smart Search, you have a couple of options:

1. Use the Block Exam Subdeck Feature (Premium)

This feature allows you to:

  • Search for cards in Smart Search
  • Add them to a dedicated subdeck with a custom name
  • Set a due date for studying
  • Keep adding more cards to the same subdeck as you study

To use this:

  1. Click on Smart Search from your deck screen
  2. Find and select cards using Text, Study Aids, or Files
  3. Scroll down and select “Add to block exam subdeck”
  4. Create a new subdeck with a name and due date
  5. Make sure “unsuspend selected notes” is checked
  6. Click “Create Subdeck”

2. Manually Move Cards to a Subdeck

If you don’t have Premium, you can:

  1. Unsuspend the cards through Smart Search
  2. Go to the Browse screen
  3. Select the recently unsuspended cards
  4. Right-click and choose “Change Deck” to move them to a subdeck
