# Suggestions

> The next best thing to do right now, ranked by what it does for your retention.

Source: https://cognipage.io/docs/suggestions

Suggestions answer one question: given everything CogniPage knows about your reading and your recall history, what is the single most useful thing to do right now? Each one comes with a reason and a button that takes you straight there.

**Where** Suggestions

## The four kinds

| Suggestion | Why it appears | It takes you to |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Review due cards | Cards have come due; reviewing them now is the highest-value thing available. | Flashcards |
| Drill a weak topic | One topic is failing far more often than the rest — worth attacking directly rather than waiting for the schedule. | Flashcards, scoped to it |
| Re-read the material | Recall keeps failing on a topic, which usually means the original understanding was thin. Cards cannot fix that; re-reading can. | The source material |
| Take a break | You have done enough. More reviewing in one sitting produces diminishing returns. | Nothing — that is the point |

## Priorities

Each suggestion carries a priority, so a long list still has an obvious first item:

- **Urgent**
  — do this first; it has the biggest impact on your retention right now.
- **High**
  — important, tackle it soon.
- **Medium**
  — worthwhile when you have time.
- **Low**
  — nice to do, not pressing.
- **Optional**
  — only if you want to go the extra mile.

## Refreshing and dismissing

Suggestions regenerate as your data changes, and **Refresh** rebuilds them immediately from your latest activity — worth pressing after a big reading or review session. Dismissing one removes it; it will come back only if the situation that produced it recurs.

> **An empty list is a good sign.**

> Nothing due, nothing slipping, nothing left unreviewed. Read something new, and suggestions will have something to say tomorrow.
