Stuck on something?
Here are a few common setup questions to help you get moving.
Do I need to create every flashcard myself?
No. The purpose of a Revision Vault deck is to provide prepared study cards. Import the supplied package into Anki and review the cards included in your purchase.
Why did I receive a ZIP file?
A ZIP file is an archive that can contain one or more files.
Extract it first, then locate the supplied
.apkg file and import that into Anki.
What if I do not see “Import with media”?
Import options vary by Anki version and package type. Check that you are using the intended import workflow and consult the instructions for your version. After import, open several cards to verify that the included media works.
What if I do not see “Import presets”?
The option may not appear in every version or for every package. Check the deck instructions and your Anki version. After importing, inspect the available options presets and confirm the deck is using the intended settings, if supplied.
My images or audio are missing. What should I do?
First, confirm that you imported the intended package and selected the media option if it was available. Reopen a few cards to check whether the problem affects the whole deck. If the media is still missing, contact Revision Vault with your order details and a description of the issue.
Can I use Anki on my phone?
Anki has desktop and mobile options, but availability, setup, and syncing differ by platform. For the most reliable initial import and verification of supplied settings, follow the product instructions and use the supported workflow for your device.
Do I need to study for hours every day?
Not necessarily. Start with a manageable routine and complete your scheduled reviews consistently. Adjust your workload to your exam timeline, syllabus, and available study time.
Your next revision session starts here.
Choose a subject, import your deck carefully, verify your setup, and start building a review habit that fits your preparation.
