Assalamu alaikum
I’m addicted to Kalaam! i am a slow learner, and i can’t remember many new words in a short time… i paused learning new words, and would like to focus on revising all the words I’ve learned so far - but when i choose “learn more”, since i get only few words to review, i am forced to enable learning new words, rather than increase number of review words.
Any chance i can customize that? I tried changing goals, but that didn’t do anything to the number of review cards… i want to spend time learning more, but without adding new vocabulary for the time being.
Jazakallah khair for all your efforts and support!
Assalamualaikum. Alhamdulillah that makes me very happy what a beautiful thing to be addicted to, right?
Please see here: Option to increase the review cards

I changed daily goal to 50, but still get small number of review cards… am I missing something?
That just means nothing is due for review.
We deliberately designed the system so that people cannot easily review beyond their daily lesson. The reason for this is simple.
There are a total of 4,776 words in the Quran and while learners may begin with a lot of enthusiasm, without having a formal system that limits review to a daily time, the risk of burnout becomes very high.
Remember, this is a marathon, not a sprint. Therefore, we encourage everyone to stick to just their daily lesson.
It’s important to note that the words in your lessons won’t just appear once; they will keep reappearing. This repetition will continue day after day until you have fully grasped them.
This method is a significant departure from how other apps approach language learning. A standout feature of Kalaam is the spaced repetition system.
This feature ensures that the words are shown to you at various intervals until they are firmly embedded in your memory.
This constant exposure is key to our learning strategy, ensuring that you won’t just encounter words once, but they will become a part of your active vocabulary through frequent review.
Having said that, you can go to the profile tab and click on “Show familiar words” to see the list of words that you have learned at any time.
