This app is just so good for learning languages.
Wish some things could be implemented. Add-ons for mobile app would be great. Also I use an 8bitdo zero 2 remote when studying with anki. The remote works perfect except when I assign a button to scroll up and another for down. Every time I set those two functions up, the anki screen will baaaarely and sporadically move a tiny bit down like teeny tiny hops to scroll down and then it stops. I’ve tested the buttons on the remote, assigned all other functions to each of them and then ALL WORK so long as the function isn’t to scroll up or down. So then I added the scroll down function to the top bar and I pressed on my iPad screen to press the scroll down function and it was also doing the weird tiny jumps/skips as it tried to scroll down but barely went down at all. Any fix for this??? It must be something on the software side
The problem with nearly all language apps is that they are not intuitive, nor are they always easy to figure out. Anki does not escape this problem. It is incredibly time consuming to read the manual or search online to figure out how to do certain things (for example, trying to search for duplicate cards on the app). The need for Anki web and the browser in order to get the full functionality of the app is a big downside. I’m not mad I spent the money, but I’m not thrilled either.
Anki is the one the best, most legendary pieces of software in history. I hope Anki begins to collaborate more closely with AnkiHub to take SRS to the next level with web based workflows, collaboration, and LLMs.
Anki is hands down the best tool I have for learning. I use it to learn things at work, languages, and for studying hobbies. This is the official Anki app. There are a lot of imposter Anki apps. Don't download those. This app has all the features of the desktop version since they're made by the same developer. It's $25 but it's a one time payment and totally worth it. It has taps and swipes to control the interface. Very customizable, and you can immediately sync between your desktop and iPhone.
I’m very happy to have transitioned to Anki from Quizlet. There was definitely a learning curve but it was worth it in the end. The only thing I truly miss from Quizlet is the haptic and audiovisual feedback. Probably the only reason I stuck with Quizlet for as long as I did were those features. As silly as it may sound, those features had an outsized impact on my motivation to keep doing cards during a session. It may only be me, but something about the haptic feedback for a successful Apple Pay transaction makes it oddly satisfying to part ways with my money. A haptic function would have the same effect for the Anki iOS app. I love everything about Anki but this feature is sorely needed to make the learning feel more immersive.
The mobile app is great excluding the ability to utilize all the resources the desktop version has to offer. But syncs with desktop so I’m able to review on the go!
As a heads up, despite the clones, this is the real deal. The price might be a lot but it directly supports the real Anki author(s). Also, I just learned about the FSRS algorithm, got sad when I realized it was a plugin on desktop, then was super happy again when I realized you've implemented it here already after checking the release notes. Keep up the amazing work :)
I have been studying for the TOPIK (Korean language) and some mathematics classes for a while and using another anki flashcard app for about a year before switching over to this one about 2 months ago so I feel very comfortable in giving a full assessment and comparison between the two. First: this Anki is the original one - all other anki apps use this one’s open source code of spaced repetition. Now that we’ve covered that, let’s talk about why AnkiWeb is the one anki you should be using. This app is incredibly customizable. Every motion, movement and tap you can individually customize to your taste. Want to shake your tablet when you get the right answer to mark it as good? Change the settings! Want to make it ridiculously simple and only be able to flip the card when you touch the upper left corner? Change the setting! Just brilliantly customizable. No other anki app lets you do this much customization. Made a mistake and need to undo a card? You CAN! No other anki app lets you do this. This one also handles incredibly large decks with absolute ease and no glitches. The reason I actually began looking for another flashcard app was Mr knock off anki kept crashing once my deck reached over 500 cards. 500 cards for a language deck is TINY. By comparison my largest deck on this app is over 6,000 (plus it has sounds and drawings!) and is completely glitch free. This app also allows perfect and seamless synchronization between computer, iPhone / iPad and android! For those of you on dual operating systems or who want to switch between mobile and computer you NEED this app. Mr knockoff promises the same functionality, but as someone with an iPad, an android phone and a windows computer that is patently inaccurate. What happened most often was the iPad and computer synchronization worked, but the android app needed to be deleted, reinstalled and have the password reset every. Single. Time. I have never had a problem with this app on any device. Card Creation: This is where the power of this app shines. This is not just a simple front and back or a front and back with pictures and sound. This app lets you make amazingly customized cards. It’s too much to cover in a review, but suffice it to say there are multiple videos available that demonstrate all the ways you can make a deck work for your specific needs. There are also LOTS of premade decks so you don’t have to spend all your time making a deck someone else has already made. Medical school,
