Quiz Revamp: More Question Types, Better Creation Flow, Custom Settings
Our current quiz feature has significant room for improvement. We're proposing a comprehensive overhaul that would transform it into a more flexible and personalized learning tool.
Expanded Question Types
Right now we're limited to basic multiple-choice. We could expand to include:
- Open-ended questions for deeper comprehension testing
- Flashcards for rapid review
- Matching exercises to reinforce concept connections
- Other formats suited to different learning styles and content types
Improved Question Creation Experience
The current quiz creation flow could be much more efficient:
- Bulk question generation by tag – create comprehensive quizzes around specific topics instantly
- Tag-based question review – organize and manage questions by subject for more focused practice sessions
Customizable Review Settings
Give users more control over their review experience:
- Set question count – choose session length based on available time
- Shuffle questions – randomize order to test true retention
- Additional customization options for flow and format
Gamification & Streaks
Layer in motivational elements to encourage consistent practice:
- Quiz streaks tracking
- Other engagement features that make daily reviews more rewarding
This would elevate Recall's quiz from a basic feature into a genuinely personalized learning system that adapts to individual needs and preferences.

Also the options given by the quiz sometimes feel incredibly dumb, which makes it easier to get it right

I hope you take into account the importance of an algorithm for a personalized learning system and implement FSRS: https://github.com/open-spaced-repetition/fsrs4anki/wiki/The-Algorithm

This is a great step forward to developing a variety of revision/test test approaches. Could this also include the use of images for subjects like geography, Chemistry, electronics etc. Upload/use a stored image for identifying parts, calculating formula, etc

I very much welcome a general overhaul of this feature. I must honestly admit that I have rarely or never used the quiz in its current form.
I am very excited to see the many good ideas implemented.

Possibility to add a review or expiration date to a card. If reached i can access it through a review tab to so.

Pleased to see improvements in this space, have you also considered.
Ability for AI not just to select a set of questions but also for the user to guide the AI in question topics.
Example, for articles or pdf's it often focuses on statistics or an outcome of events. This is very useful for when you need to learn these, but are redundant when trying to learn concepts.
The ability to guide the AI or chose category types would be great.
Eg -
Focus on concepts or processes
Focus on Chapter 2 only.

Paddy Wells good suggestion. Need to have a way to guide AI in addition to auto generation

Streak Review Count

Hi Recall team.
Is it possible to make a function called Streak to keep user motivated by complete a round of 5 question jn a Review?
For example if there is a busy day so user will try to at least finish 5 questions in a Review round then he keeps his streak like 6 days 30 days etc.
This will help reinforce user to keep using Recall everyday.
