Speed review not working on some of my courses

Still having this problem on my Intermediate Italian course. I went through 100 words on the Speed Review but the Review still says 101 words to be reviewed - the same as when I started.

I had another shot at the Italian Speed Review and this time the numbers to be reviewed went down, from 101 to 43. However when I did the the same with Polish, there were still 22 words to be reviewed, the same as when I started.

Hi @SteveKaczynski, speed review is currently randomised . You may or may not review a word which is actually due to review. With a course which has many words, it may take a while for your review number to decrement.

When I did the Speed Review in the past, I noticed variation in the number of words that would decline in the Review. You might Speed Review 100 words but the Review number only goes down 20 or 30. But recently it has not been going down at all for considerable periods. I have noticed the courses with many words being worst affected - the Russian one has 4,999 words.

I can confirm that there is indeed a problem with speed review. Words which are due to review should be shown first in speed review. This will be fixed in the next update.

My speed review is also not working. It’s becoming a real pain right now.

still not working in my own portuguese course… but, then there also the audio review is not working properly, so… It is working however in all my Spanish courses

Edit: no, not even in my Spanish courses is the speed review really functional. Yesterday was probably just an “accident”.

Having the same problem with Mandarin Comprehensive. Tried logging out and back in again, no change.

After doing a lot of work on Review in the past few days to catch up in my
most important course, Russian, I logged in again just now and there are
467 words to Review. With Speed Review not working properly catching up is
almost impossible.

Fingers crossed, Speed Review seems to be working at the moment. Long may
it continue…

Still not working. Do we have to wait a week plus for a full update when there’s an obviously broken feature? I’ve hardly been able to use the site at all since it started playing up.

It is not critical for the courses that are only on 15 minutes a day, but it is crucial for my Russian course, the only one on 45 minutes. Ordinary Review does not easily with hundreds of words to review, which pile up particularly with 45 minute courses.

Agreed, this really interferes with my learning. If I can’t speed review, there is no way for me to keep up such high levels of activity.

Hi Joshua, when will the next update be? My speed review still isn’t working.

My Russian course is still affected by the lack of a properly functioning Speed Review. Using normal Review I have more or less got my Review backlog under control but it takes a lot of time and effort. Unless it is cured soon, I may have to start ignoring Review, at least for my Russian course, and concentrate on finishing it (I am now at the 80% mark and without the Review problems I would certainly have been further along).

It would be good to know whether Speed Review can be fixed, or alternatively, whether the flow of items to be reviewed can be slowed so that dealing with them in normal Review is feasible.
My completed courses do not seem ever to be affected by Speed Review problems, but the ones still being worked on, ie. the important ones, do.
