Best flashcard app! The best flashcard app. I've been using it to study Thai. However, I can't get sounds or images to work on Android.

Hands down best for kanji flashcards I've been using Anki for over two years now and have become progressively more impressed with it as it's matured. Only problem I ever had with FCs ended up being a problem with my SD card being corrupted, and I've used it on Froyo, Gingerbread, and ICS devices. It's currently running flawlessly on my Galaxy Nexus. I love the fact that there are so many options for customizing cards/reviews, although finding all the relevant features can be overwhelming after a major upgrade since things are sometimes relocated to totally new locations in the interface. One gripe is that syncing is manual. I'd really appreciate an auto-sync feature that would update the cloud copy on completing a session or exiting the app. But what's really great is the Japanese plugin in the associated desktop application that autogenerates the furigana readings for kanji flashcards. It makes creation of japanese vocabulary cards extremely fast and simple on a WinPC. ...in fact, that's my only remaining criticism of AnkiDroid...being that I've started using an Android tab as a laptop replacement, I'd really love seeing a similar feature available for the card creator in AnkiDroid.

Needs an update for ICS I had this when I had gingerbread and loved it. Never had a single problem. One of the main reasons I chose another android was for this program but the ICS version is REALLY buggy. -It crashes daily. -For whatever reason, about 75% of the time the settings button does not show up when I'm doing reviews so I can't edit cards as I go. -Unlike the GB version, this one did not prompt me to choose "sync from local" and I lost 100 flashcards during a sync. -Backups don't work right and I can't find a way to actually restore from backup. I had to make a whole new deck and load it from my computer, sync from computer, then sync the new deck onto my droid... -I'm getting some kind of database error now from the ankidroid PC program. -When browsing card lists, the sort option does not work (when sorting by date) Despite all this I would say it's still the best flashcard program out there. If you're not on ICS I highly recommend it. If you ARE on ICS then I still recommend it but be careful and expect to get a little frustrated but the good is worth the bad. When I get an update that fixes some of these problems I will edit my review back up to a 5.

Great app w/good pedigree This is a great app, with a good base from the crossplatform desktop app.

Spaced repitition does all the card planning for you! It's awesome! (Market is cluttered with frivolous FC programs lacking SR.) Thanks Nicolas!

Okay. You should make it import cards from files, and the Shared Decks database has never loaded to me. How about connecting it to Quizlet?

by Marcus the 1/16/2012

Top! I use Anki desktop since 2 years. Whit this app I can download, sync and use my decks on my new Xiao Mi Android phone. And it's for free. Great. Thank you!

by nutty the 1/12/2012

Mr Very good app with a huge database of cards available for free download... Well done sir!

Audio Problem Great program unfortunately most of the decks I have contain audio ,which doesn't get played I'm on Nexus S ICS 4.0.3

Very useful college study tool. Use it to create notes on my PC and sync to my phone for studying on the go.

by Sean the 1/11/2012

Best program of its kind This is an excellent spaced repetition program even among its kind, and best of all, it's free! This developer deserves a bit of income from the hard work. The free storage for decks and syncing is also incredibly generous. Only complaint about the android version is the lack of a useful widget i.e. one that allows you to flip through flashcards without opening the program. Other than that it's perfect.

by Dan the 1/9/2012

Fantastic flashcards app Even better than anymemo thanks to the desktop + web client and sync. Needs curated decks though

by smubo the 1/8/2012

Great app. Unfortunately crashes quite often on launch on my system. Once it runs, there are no problems what so ever.

by Alex the 1/6/2012

Great idea but buggy - does not show images !!! Some bugs. 1) Does not show pictures. I tried the same deck as on the screenshot - does not work. 2) Cancelling deck download hangs forever, need to restart the phone.

by Garrett the 1/4/2012

Good Seems cool but I don't think there's a way to add flash cars from other websites which would be very nice.

by aelfwyne the 1/4/2012

A bit buggy still. Promising but still a few bugs to work out.
