Daily goal 🎯
What’s the daily goal?
Section titled “What’s the daily goal?”A goal you set yourself for how long you’ll study each day. The unit is minutes. Hit your goal and your streak gets activated.
The default is 5 minutes. Intentionally low, so that even on busy days you can keep things going.

Streak calendar
Section titled “Streak calendar”Today’s progress is included in the streak calendar.
Resets every midnight
Section titled “Resets every midnight”The “today” counter resets at local-time midnight. After midnight, a new day begins and today’s progress goes back to 0. Yesterday’s record doesn’t disappear — it carries over into your total study time / total expressions learned / streak / weekly chart.
- Don’t change the goal too often — flipping the number up and down hurts habit-building.
- It’s not a confession to lower it — “sustainability” is way more valuable than “the perfect day.”
- Think in weekly averages — a 5-minute day today doesn’t ban a 10-minute day tomorrow.
- You can keep going past your goal — the goal is just the floor. If you’re feeling it, do 30 minutes. The extra time still counts on your weekly chart.
Can I set the goal to 0 minutes?
Section titled “Can I set the goal to 0 minutes?”No — the minimum is 1 minute.
What happens to my old streak if I change the goal?
Section titled “What happens to my old streak if I change the goal?”It stays. New calculations start from the moment you change it, against the new goal.

Can I set the goal in number of videos instead of minutes?
Section titled “Can I set the goal in number of videos instead of minutes?”Right now, only minutes are supported. Video length varies a lot, so we feel time-based goals are fairer.
