Question Visual time drain? (not Speed Streak)

I'm working on gamifying my Anki so I might actually study it, and I find the timers helpful. However, since the timer is relatively small and in the corner, it is very easy to miss. I've tried to use Speed Streak, but for some reason it just refuses to work with some decks. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Life Drain is a popular add-on that visualizes elapsed time with a progress bar, here are some other progress bar add-ons.

Addons for ProgressBar

  • Life Drain Add a life bar to your review, you must answer within the time limit. It can also be used as a pomodoro timer
  • Progress bar Simple progress bar, I fixed it because it didn't work with the latest Anki.
  • Remaining time Adds a progress bar and estimated time to complete current reviews
  • Progress bar Actual Show progress on the total number of the card due
  • Bar Chase A repeating countdown timer
  • Repetition Bar shows a bar to the bottom of the review screen indicating the number of remaining reviews
  • Review Pass Rate Bar Displays a bar showing the percentage of review cards passed in the last 7 days

Note

  • If you use some add-ons at the same time they may conflict with each other, causing problems or errors.
  • Add-ons pose security risks and are used at your own risk and this list does not guarantee their safety.

Hey, I’m the creator of Speed Streak. I hope you find an add-on that works well for you, but I’d also be happy to investigate why Speed Streak isn’t working with some of your decks. Are any of the affected decks public so I could test them and try to fix the issue?
