Duolingo is one of the most popular platforms for learning new languages online and offline.
Duolingo offers lessons for Music, Math, and other 43 languages that you can join for free. Notably, its free version has ads and limited features.
To get an uninterrupted experience and unlimited hearts on Duolingo, you can buy either Super Duolingo or Duolingo Max.
To keep users engaged on its platforms for a long period, Duolingo keeps launching new features. Among those features are Leaderboard and Streak.
These are two features that help Duolingo users be motivated and continue their language journey. To create and maintain a Streak on Duolingo, users need to complete at least one lesson a day.
If they forget to complete a lesson, they will lose their Streak.
For EX: if you have a 45-day Streak on Duolingo and you miss a lesson for a day, your streak will reset to Zero if you are using its free version.
You can save your Streak by equipping Streak Freeze, which can be purchased by using Gems. Notably, a Streak Freeze cost you 200 Gems.
If you don’t have enough Gems or Money to buy Gems, there is nothing to protect your Streak on Duolingo.
A lot of Duolingo users often take to social media platforms and ask for help to restore Streak because they forget to complete their lessons on Duolingo.
While you are here, you must have lost your Duolingo Streak for accidentally missing a daily lesson and want to protect your Streak. Don’t you?
If your answer is YES then don’t worry because we got you covered. In this guide, we will teach you a couple of things to do when you accidentally forget to do a lesson on Duolingo.
Without any further ado, let’s get started:
What to Do When You Forget to Do Duolingo?
Here are some effective ways to restore your Duolingo Streak.
Change Timezone On Your Device
On Reddit, a user mentioned that you can solve this issue by changing your device’s Timezone.
If you accidentally forget to do your daily Duolingo then you should consider changing the Timezone of your device to maintain Streak.
This does not seem to work but you should try changing the timezone of your device.
To change the timezone on Windows, follow the steps mentioned below:
- Press the Windows Icon on your keyboard.
- This will open the Power Menu.
- Now, click on the Gear Icon to open the device Settings.
- Under the settings window, click on the “Time & Language” option.
- There, toggle off the “Set time automatically” and “Set time zone automatically” options.
- This will allow you to change the time and timezone of your device.
- Now, click on the drop-down menu under the Time Zone section and select a different timezone.
- While selecting the timezone, make sure to select the time which is behind the time of your current timezone.
- Once done, save the settings and close the window.
- Now, open Duolingo and complete your missing lesson.
- That’s it.

Buy Super Duolingo
Unlike its free version, Super Duolingo gives its users two Streak Freezes at once. If you accidently miss a lesson on Duolingo, these streaks help you protect your Streak.
Recreate Streak
If following the instructions provided by the support team or Duolingo Staff does not fix your problem then there is nothing you can do to fix your problem.
In that case, you should start joining the daily lessons and recreate the streak with your friend.
That’s it, this is this is all you can do if you accidentally forget to do your Duolingo.
