README
Speed Tracker — Anki Add-on
A minimal floating overlay that shows your real-time study speed while reviewing cards in Anki.

What it shows
During a review session, a small panel appears in the corner of the screen:
| Row | Description |
|---|---|
now |
Current pace — last 60s, projected |
3m |
Rolling 3-minute average |
session |
Average since you started reviewing |
total |
Cards reviewed · time elapsed |
ETA |
Estimated time to finish the remaining queue |
The overlay appears when the first card is shown and disappears when you exit the reviewer.

Manual
- Download or clone this repo
- Copy the
speed_tracker/folder into your Ankiaddons21/directory - Restart Anki
Configuration
Edit speed_tracker/config.py:
OVERLAY_POSITION = "bottom-right" # bottom-right | bottom-left | top-right | top-left
OVERLAY_BOTTOM_MARGIN = 72 # increase if overlay overlaps buttons
WINDOW_MINUTES = 3.0 # duration of the middle metric row
IDLE_GAP_SECONDS = 90 # pause threshold that resets the session
How it works
Each card answer records a timestamp in a circular deque (max 4096 entries). Rates are computed by counting timestamps within a time window and dividing by elapsed time — no accumulated state, no drift.
Idle detection: if the gap between two answers exceeds IDLE_GAP_SECONDS, the session reference resets so long pauses don't skew your averages.
ETA is calculated from the remaining cards in the current deck (new + learning + review) divided by the current pace.
