I recently upgraded to a one year Premium membership, but still have a LingQ limit when doing a “Review Due” on Android, receiving the following error message: "You do not have enough LingQs for this review… ". I was under the impression this limit was lifted when upgrading, or was I misinformed?

That message doesn’t have anything to do with your tier status, it just says that you don’t have enough LingQs to review in that specific lesson. You can instead review words directly from the Vocabulary page.

Zoran, this morning I spent over an hour doing a lesson, creating LingQs for words and phrases. When checking the stats I had -228/100 points, and I still receive the “you do not have enough LingQs for this review” message when clicking “Review due”. Is something malfunctioning, or am I not understanding something?

@Ralf_CT This is a bug. Developers are looking into it and the fix should be included in the next app update. Thanks for your patience.

Morning Zoran, is the negative number of points when adding LingQs also a bug?

@Ralf_CT It’s not a bug. You get negative coins when you create LingQs from Known words.
When marking words known, you get coins, but if you later click on that same Known word and create a LingQ of it, your coins are removed, which is why the number can be negative.

Morning Zoran, I find this negative system a little strange. If I LingQ words I do not know (which are also not highlighted), I get negative coins. The app assumes I know words I do no know. I could spend time listening to a lesson while doing my morning exercises, get my 100 points, and then lose them all when I later go through the exercise sentence by sentence, Lingqing words I do not know.

@Ralf_CT New words (words you don’t know) appear as blue in a lesson. WHite words are Known (or ignored) and you already received coins for these words when you made them Known. If you then change the status of Known word and create a LingQ of it, you lose coins you previously received for making it Known.

Morning Zoran, the app is starting it’s “you don’t have enough LingQs…” nonsense again when I click “Revue Due” on Android. It worked fine since the issue was fixed, but now it’s back. I was under the impression paid subscribers have unlimited LingQs?
@Ralf_CT That doesn’t have anything to do with the number of LingQs you create, it is of course unlimited for paid users. The message says that you don’t have enough LingQs saved to start the review. We will investigate that issue again. Thanks for letting me know.

Good evening Zoran, the “you don’t have enough LingQs” error is rearing its ugly head yet again. Please check.
Thanks, we will look into it.
My guess is you are experiencing the effects of the bug that the app wants to mark all the words in a lesson known, whether you actually know them or not.
I think there are threads about this bug that are years old.

Hi @Ralf_CT !
Could you please provide some screenshots of the issue?
Do you have LingQs with status 1-3 (yellow ones) in the lesson? Does the number at the “Review Due” button show “0” or another number?
Thank you!
It’s difficult to provide a screenshot as the scenario is ever-changing. My usual routine consists of listening to a lesson a few times in reading view, then changing to sentence view where I LingQ specific words, or specific clauses to improve word memory. I then listen to the lesson again in reading view, stopping at specific words if necessary. Lastly I listen to the exercise on repeat while doing my morning exercises. I also do the “Review Page”, “Review Due” and “Review Lesson” exercises. There should therefore always be enough LingQs.
The point is that when you complete review activities with certain LingQs successfully, their status automatically increases.
Possibly all LingQs in your lesson raised their status to 4 this way? Such words are considered as learned and are not included in review activities anymore.
Ok, currently I’m able to click “Review Due”. For this particular lesson I have 43 yellow LingQs, Review Page (2), Review Due (17), Review Lesson (43). What do these numbers mean?
- Review Page uses for the review LingQs with statuses 1-3 present on the current page.
- Review Lesson uses LingQs with 1-3 statuses from the whole lesson.
- Review Due uses LingQs with 1-3 statuses from the lesson based on their Spaced Repetition System (SRS) schedule. More details about SRS can be found here: How does the LingQ SRS review work?
By the way, you can run your review sessions from the Vocabulary section, where you can customize the set of LingQs to review based on your preferences.

Hi @zorbital !
Could you please remind me about the bug you are referring to, which mistakenly marks unknown words as known?
What are the steps to reproduce it?
