When productive procrastination goes too far and you end up bringing Things3 and Anki together on your Mac...

Really buckling down as the A&P midterm approaches. Hit 500+ a few times over the last week but today I truly ascended to 800. 1k incoming 🤧

When I use the shake to undo feature in anki mobile app on my iPhone it does correctly undo the card visually but it also pops up the cancel and undo iOS prompt. After hitting cancel I can no longer interact with anki properly it says that the card doesn't exist even though I'm literally looking at a card

ile iphone app. it didnt use to crash, its CERY annoying that this gappens.

issue:
Ios 26.6.1

was going to post on the forum but A. I dont have my contacts in cell I can't see very well and B. I cant lofin to the website - pw not working and send me an email not working either. Wo i posted it here.

The behaviour I want is that the new cards are reduced when I'm over the maximum reviews, such that my load trends back down.

Naively with these numbers: if on a particular day, I'm over 100 reviews, then no new cards are presented that day, but I can still clear the entire backlog of cards.

I think there's a matrix of:

- full backlog, new cards

- cut backlog, no new cards

- cut backlog, new cards (with toggle)

- full backlog, no new cards <- missing!

TLDR: have only been using again and good for almost 6 years - updated to FSRS 2 months ago, realised when looking at my stats that my card difficulty was fucked, found out it was because I never use 'easy', and now think I should probably start using the easy and hard buttons. How exactly will this affect my reviews in the coming future, if at all? Will there be a particular change in quantity, time between them, etc.?

Hi! I have been using Anki to study languages since late 2020, with some periods of me using it heavier than others and some periods of breaks (not the ideal way to use it, I know. Mental health is fun haha).

When I first started using it, as many people do, I did some research to figure out the best settings and, well, how to use it. What I found told me I should use just 'again' and 'good'. Cannot for the life of me remember the reasoning the person gave, maybe just the most common reason of 'it makes things simpler'. Little disappointed in me 6 years ago for not thinking it through a bit more, but whatever! So I have been using this method all these years.

So FSRS comes along at some point. I am autistic, and one way that affects me is that I really don't like change, so I wanted to just stick with what I was doing because the idea of it updating and messing up my way of doing things scared the hell out of me lol. So I did not update for agesss. However, for burnout reasons I had to have a break earlier this year. When I finally came back to my thousands of piled reviews, I figured that would probably be a good time to update, if I really had to.

So I figure out the FSRS thing to the best of my ability, and have been using that for I think just about 2 months now. But recently I noticed one of my deck's cards seemed to be having high daily reviews frequently, so checked the stats. I don't know to what extent the high daily reviews are actually related to this, maybe not at all, but when I was there I noticed my card difficulty stats were a bit fucked lol (pictures attached of card difficulty in my main 2 current decks at the bottom). Looking it up, I found out it is because I never use the 'easy' button.

So, now knowing that, I'm thinking I should probably start using the other two magic buttons, but want to know what to expect in the relatively close future. Will there be a significant change at all? For example in the amount of daily reviews or in the amount of time between reviews?

Really sorry if these are stupid questions! As I said earlier, not massively keen on change, so I tend to overthink these things before going through with it. Also, sorry for being very wordy in this post - I'm very tired and am a big overexplainer lol.

Thank you very much for any answers!

I'm trying to add images to my cards and they aren't showing up. Is there a simple solution for this?

If one is at the custom time and the other resets at midnight, then you might get 2 sets of new cards in the same day?

Hey guys,

I know how to code and I’ve been building Anki add-ons for a while now, so I figured I’d start taking a few custom requests.

If there’s something you’ve always wanted Anki to do but couldn’t find an add-on for, I can probably build it. Could be a custom shortcut, some automation, better deck navigation, a study tracker, a game/reward system, or just some very specific feature for your workflow.

Tell me what you have in mind and I’ll let you know if it’s doable. If it is, we can figure out a reasonable price depending on how much work it takes.

Comment or DM me if you’ve got an idea.

hello does anyone have anki flashcards covering all the physical somso models?

I have never managed to get the Migaku add-on to work, and lately I keep getting a message that I need to update it. I do, then I get an error message, and nothing seems to work right. This is every time I start Anki now. When I try to delete the add-on, I get the message that it can't be removed because it's being used by another process. I have closed and restarted everything, even uninstalled and reinstalled Anki. uninstalled and deleted Migaku etc etc, nothing seems to work. Any tips? I can still use Amki on my phone, but the desktop app doesn't work right anymore which means I can't add new cards.

Hi everyone,
I’m an ios user and recently I wanted to use anki app on my phone but I surprised with the price so I tried to use the web version but I cannot import the files on it! Does any one have the same problem here?
Any advice or solution ?
I already tried to sync but it didn’t work

I’m new to Anki. What’s the best add-on for creating MCQs in Anki?

Also, is there a way to simply upload a PDF containing MCQs and have Anki automatically turn them into MCQ-type questions? (I know it might sound a bit silly, but is there a way to do this?)

Same as title.

though, if you are already well acquainted with Anki, please skip the first half of the video and directly jump to the showcase where I have shown a subject by subject use case of Anki (see timestamps)

the tutorial is completely in English apart from the first 2 minutes, thus i am posting it here.

Saw some people discussing this, hope it helps!
