The Obsidian Better Recall plugin brings an Anki-like spaced repetition experience directly into your vault. It allows you to create decks and flashcards within Obsidian and review them using a built-in scheduler based on the Anki algorithm. Cards are reviewed from decks through an intuitive sidebar interface or command palette, with dynamic scheduling based on recall performance. This setup is ideal for learners who prefer keeping their study materials and spaced repetition workflow within one environment, without relying on external apps like Anki.
The Recall plugin brings flexible spaced repetition capabilities to your notes using configurable algorithms like Anki, SM2, and Leitner. It allows you to track individual notes or entire folders without modifying note content, and handles all scheduling through an external JSON file. You can initiate reviews through commands, view upcoming intervals in the status bar, and untrack notes anytime, resetting their review history. The plugin supports modular algorithm switching and plans to expand support for flashcard formats, cloze deletions, and multi-item notes. Whether you prefer structured methods like Leitner or algorithm-based scheduling, Recall provides a lightweight and adaptable framework for reviewing content at your own pace.
