Item Lists

The Item Lists widget is a handy way to see radicals, kanji, or vocabulary you’ve recently burned or unlocked (i.e., within the last 30 days) or items that are in critical condition. Items are moved to critical condition when you answer their reviews correctly less than 75% of the time.

The widget can only show one of these categories at a single time, but you can add as many versions of the widget as you like to cover all categories.

Since this widget is meant to give you a quick overview, only ten items will show on the dashboard widget. For burned and unlocked items, they’ll be ordered from most recently to least recently burned or unlocked. For critical condition items, they’ll be ordered from most critical to least critical, i.e. items with the lowest correct percentage to the highest correct percentage below the 75% threshold.

To see more than the top ten items in each category as well as more information like the burned and unlocked date for those items or the exact review percentage for critical condition items, you can click the “Show All” button to see something like the following:

If you have no items to show in these areas, you’ll see a special illustration instead! This is also where the color theme you chose will apply.
