I got scheduled 500 cards today.
Usually I get 200-300 a day, and that's fine, but today the due tab in stats says 500, except I had 880 cards' backlog yesterday and this morning woke up to 1100, which is just 220 cards like I would expect
So I presume all the other cards are buried, but what gives? Why have I been hit with suddenly 500 cards today?
I looked through my subjects, and found the attached image may be the one causing the issue, but I'm not sure.

It's not clear what you mean by all of these numbers, where you're looking to see them, why some are surprising you and some aren't, etc. More details would probably help, like -- what changed between yesterday and today? -- have you been studying extra cards while working on a backlog? -- were cards rescheduled using some functionality/feature?

You'll never start the day with buried cards.

If you want to post parameters, do it as text. At a glance, are you a 2-button grader? Are these the parameters for the deck you're asking about, with the unexpected workload today (because you seem uncertain)?
Probably more helpful would be posting what you're seeing in Stats that concerns you -- like Future Due, Reviews, Retention, etc.

Unfortunately I've done the reviews now, so I can't show you the stats page.
As far as I'm aware, nothing changed between today and yesterday. I synced to my computer, which did do a reschedule, but that's never caused this sort of issue before. Even if the reschedule did cause this issue, im still confused as to why I didn't see those extra cards when reviewing.
The issue at hand is that the stats page suggested I had 500 new cards due today in the future due graph. This is surprising because, as mentioned, no change to my study habits was made, so i wouldn't expect any sudden increases in the amount of due cards. It's also surprising because I had 880 cards remaining in my backlog yesterday (after removing the buried cards) and today I only have 1100 (again, after removing the buried cards), which suggests that in fact only 220 or so cards were added to my backlog, which contradicts the stats page.
I'm not exactly a 2-button grader. I use again and good the most, but do use hard and easy about 2% of the time each.
I'm not certain which deck has the unexpected workload. I think it's the deck shown, because the stats page suggested 200/500, or 40% of my due cards came from that deck, when that deck only occupies 15% of young and mature cards by volume, but of course I can't be sure because of difficulty and different weights etc. The only average workload I have a finger on is the workload for my main deck (which contains all the other decks for easy review), so I can't look at the due cards and easily tell where the unexpected workload came from.

I don't know why you'd expect nothing to change if you rescheduled your cards on/after sync. That's exactly how a big shift can happen -- cards are scheduled on one device (with one configuration) and then rescheduled on another.
[If you're using current versions of the app on all your devices, you don't need that feature and you should disable it. It's more likely to cause you a sync conflict than help you in any way.]

Even if the reschedule caused the shift, I'm still not sure why I didn't actually experience this increased load. Like I mentioned, I couldn't find any evidence of it when actually doing my cards; it only showed up on the stats page.
My understanding though was that ankidroid because of one reason or another is behind in fsrs version by one or two minor versions, so I've kept automatic reschedule on. Is that not the case?
