# Study Tools

The tools screen will open when you tap on the gear/cog icon in the
study screen.

On the top right, there are buttons that will adjust the text size on
your cards.

The "Frequent Actions" section contains some commonly used actions. You
can rearrange the actions there or remove actions by holding your finger
on a button for a second or so.

Below the "Frequent Actions" section is a list of all available actions
in AnkiMobile. You can add these actions to the "Frequent Actions"
section by long-pressing on them.

## Actions

The following actions can be run from the tools screen, or by assigning
them to a tap, swipe, or the top bar in the preferences.

**Add**\
Opens a new window to add cards to the deck.

**Answer "Again"**\
When the answer screen is shown, choose the red button, indicating you
wish to review the card again soon. This is useful when you forgot a
card or wish to review it more frequently.

**Answer "Hard"**\
When the answer screen is shown and there are four buttons, choose the
second button from the left, indicating you found the card hard to
remember.

**Answer "Good"**\
When the answer screen is shown, choose the green button. This is the
button you should end up using the most.

When the answer screen is shown, choose the button on the right,
indicating you found the card too easy to remember and would like a much
longer delay.

**Auto Advance**\

bury cards. You can customize the behaviour in the deck's study options.

**User Action 1-8**

From 2.0.88+. An advanced feature that allows you to trigger JavaScript in the review
screen. Please note we can not provide any assistance with using this feature, as it uses
[JavaScript](/manual/templates/styling#javascript).

Some shared decks provide keyboard shortcuts to perform actions like revealing a hint,
or revealing the next cloze deletion. If that action is available as a public function,
you can tell AnkiMobile to call it when a user action is triggered. This makes it possible
to trigger the action with your gamepad instead.

To define a user action, you must know the function the card template provides. If you
know it provides a `revealNext()` function for example, you can tell AnkiMobile to call
it with the following code:

```
var userJs1 = revealNext;
```

The author of the shared deck or template may be able to tell you if a function is
available.

Please note that standard Anki templates do not provide any actions - this feature
is only useful for triggering actions you have written yourself, and ones that certain
shared decks/templates provide.

# Study Options

The study options can be accessed from the tools screen.
Almost all the options available in the computer version can also be
adjusted in AnkiMobile. For a description of what everything does,
please see the [computer documentation](/manual/deck-options).
While some of the options have different wording, the behaviour is the
same as the computer version.
