By default, Covidences uses dual reviewer mode. In this case, each citation requires two votes to advance in your review, unless these votes are in conflict and a third and final vote is required.
If you prefer only one vote to advance a citation forward, you can switch to single reviewer mode. Go to Review Settings and select "1" from the drop-down menu. You can apply individual review modes for Title and Abstract Screening and the Full Text Review.
Important: A pop-up will appear to confirm the switch to single reviewer mode. It will show all citations with one vote that have now permanently advanced in your review.
If needed you can undo votes to return citations to a previous stage. Go here or view the video below for instructions.
