This is built now, and it works the way you asked for in your second reply: purely within the session, nothing saved, nothing touching your levels or statistics.
While a passage is being read, tap the flag icon on the caption to mark the verse. When the list reaches the end, Remember Me replays just the flagged ones. If you miss a verse again during that pass, it gets flagged again and comes back around — so it keeps circling until you have a clean run. Flagged verses also show a small blue flag on their badge in the list, so you can see at a glance what's still outstanding.
The marking is entirely temporary. It never changes a verse's level or its review schedule, and it's cleared when you start a new listening session. That should retire the "Memory Verses Failed" tag dance you've been doing with your pinkie — no stopping, no editing, no moving verses back afterwards.
Two practical notes so it doesn't hide from you:
The flag sits on the caption, so switch on Captions or Script in the speech settings (the cog wheel next to the playback buttons).
It appears when you're playing the whole list with repeat off — which is your day-by-day-through-the-list pattern. With repeat switched on there's no "end of the list" for the replay pass to hook into, so the flag is hidden.
It's described here: https://www.remem.me/docs/audio/#hands-free
And the AI-assistant idea I floated above is no longer hypothetical — it's built. You can connect your Remember Me verses to an assistant like Claude or ChatGPT and have it run the review as a genuine back-and-forth: it pulls your due, new or known verses, quizzes you one at a time, waits as long as you need because it's listening rather than counting down a fixed delay, and goes reference→verse or verse→reference simply because you ask. Nothing is written back to your account — no levels or statistics are touched — so it sits alongside the flag feature rather than replacing it.
For your dishes-and-garden use case this is the properly hands-free version: you say "missed that one" out loud instead of reaching for the screen at all.
It isn't publicly documented yet and I'm rolling it out to interested users individually — if you'd like access, say the word and I'll set you up. Given how precisely you described your workflow, I'd genuinely value your read on it.
