AnkiMobile Flashcards - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

AnkiMobile is a mobile companion to Anki, a powerful, intelligent flashcard program that is free, multi-platform, and open-source. Sales of this app support the development of both the computer and mobile version, which is why the app is priced as a computer application.

AnkiMobile was written by the lead developer of Anki and AnkiWeb, and it has been around since 2010. Beware other apps using "Anki" in their name that have sprung up recently - they are not compatible with the rest of the Anki ecosystem, and they offer far fewer features, despite charging expensive subscriptions.

Some of AnkiMobile's features include:

- A free cloud synchronization service that lets you keep your card content synchronized across multiple mobile and computer devices. This makes it easy to add content on a computer and then study it on your mobile, easily keep your study progress current between an iPhone and iPad, and so on.
- The same SM2 and FSRS scheduling algorithms that the computer version of Anki uses, which remind you of material as you're about to forget it.
- A flexible interface designed for smooth and efficient study. You can set up AnkiMobile to perform different actions when you tap or swipe on various parts of the screen, and control which actions appear on the tool buttons.
- Comprehensive graphs and statistics about your studies.
- Support for large card decks - even 100,000+ cards.
- If your cards use images or audio clips, the media is stored on your device, so you can study without an internet connection.
- A powerful search facility that allows you to find cards that match criteria such as 'tagged high priority, answered in the last ten days and not containing the following words', and automatically place them into a deck to study.
- Support for displaying mathematical equations with MathJax, and rendering LaTeX created with the computer version.
- Support for adding images drawn with the Apple Pencil to your cards.

Please note that AnkiMobile is currently intended as a companion to the computer version of Anki, rather than a complete replacement for it. While AnkiMobile is able to display and schedule your cards in the same way the computer version does, certain changes like modifying note types need to be done with the computer software. Add-ons are not supported, so while you can study image occlusion cards created with the computer version, they can not be created within AnkiMobile. For this reason, please start with the computer version of Anki before you think about buying this app.

The cloud synchronization service is optional, and data can also be imported/exported from the app via a USB cable or AirDrop.

Like all apps, AnkiMobile can be purchased once and then used on multiple devices in a household using the same Apple ID. Family sharing is also supported (apart from in India). For information on bulk discounts for educational institutions, please see Apple's Volume Purchase Program.

I did not just pay $35- the website doesn’t load

One of the functions is to sync what you have made on the web version to the app version but I can’t even get started creating an account on the website….. pls fix this. I paid money for this app

Excellent SRS after all these years

I have been using Anki occasionally over the past few years when I need to ingest concepts, and it does magically well. 101/100 would recommend.

Could use an auto-save function

Overall, was enjoying using this app and the idea is great. However, it would be a lot better if our progress in making cards could be auto-saved as we are working on it instead of having to finish our cards first and manually exit to save it. Ended up wasting a lot of time and effort when the app crashed as i was making some cards, and had to restart everything, which should not have been the case for an app that is so expensive.

good companion to the desktop version

If you have been a faithful user of the desktop version and you’re wondering whether to drop so much money on the mobile app when Anki web exists, I would say do it! It is quite worth it for me, but I understand some may not be able to justify the cost. What’s good about the app is that you can do your cards offline, rather than having to use the Internet to do your cards on your browser, this also means it is very fast and smooth between cards if your cards tend to have a lot of media such as image occlusion cards. For me, it also helps me focus better as I tended to associate opening Safari with frivolous Google searches. HOWEVER, if your cards have a lot of media, do note it may take very long to sync!! And you can’t leave the app while it syncs or allow your phone to lock. I downloaded this app the night before a long journey planning to do cards during said journey, but I was horrified when none of the images on my cards showed up because they had not been fully synced. I have some feedback for the developers though, I think it would be really great to have options to move the buttons up to the middle of the screen, as it feels a bit awkward and uncomfortable to press the buttons at the very bottom of the screen. Perhaps there can be an unlock and lock function which allows us to toggle where we want the buttons to go so our fingers don’t get tired during long Anki sessions :D

Do not buy

The flashcards in my deck got deleted and there was no way to undo it. Wasted 2 hours

Pretty good

Would be better if there was a function to create tables, just some suggestions. Otherwise, it really helped me in memorising Biology

The app keep crash or unable to sync

I saw a YouTuber is using this app, so I would like to give it a try. However, it took me more than two hours just trying to sync and still fail. Not to mentioned the app in window also keep crashing.

Instantaneous and smooth flow

Ive used other flashcards before however the quick change in cards and answers is really attractive to me. Though it would be nice if you could have a feature to swap the cards order so that you can memorise both ways.

Can't use pc plugins on iphone

It becomes very limited as you cannot use plugins at all. Especially considering that the pc ver is free, its not worth the money

Amazing. Worth every dollar!

I was a bit sceptical because of the unusually high price of the app. But it is worth every dollar!! The Singapore AppStore did not have many reviews. And they were old. So I checked and read in the UK store reviews. This is a MUST HAVE app. I am thrilled and glad I got it. If the high price puts you off like me...you will not be disappointed. I use this to study Japanese kanji characters and the flexibility of offers is beyond my imagination. Thanks for making this great app!
