My family is Nuevomexicano, and I've been working on getting back to the Spanish my grandparents spoke. That's Traditional New Mexico Spanish, not the Spanish they teach in class. The flashcards I could find were all standard Spanish, so I made my own deck and I'm sharing it.
What's in it
Sources
A few of my favorites: abridor (can opener), aceite de lámpara (kerosene), and grampador (clothespin). There are 15 or so other words people use for a clothespin, too.

If you catch a mistake, or your family uses a word that isn't in here, please comment. I'd love to keep adding to it. ¡Que viva el español de Nuevo México!

Hi all, time for a sneak peek at my redesign for AnkiDroid's note editor.
Please send over any and all feedback and I'll get right on it. Right now this is pre-alpha functionality which I'm now working to tighten up and land (some of which should be in 2.26).
It uses the same code for the fields as Anki, so your notes will appear the same on both apps.
Aside from the visual preview of the HTML, it adds two new major pieces of functionality:
Some existing functionality, such as keyboard language selection is now much more prominent.
This has taken a TON of time and effort to get right, but it's almost there, and I'm really excited to share this with y'all.
If you like where this is heading, please consider sponsoring my work. Your support helps me keep dedicating time to making AnkiDroid better for everyone:
💜 https://github.com/sponsors/david-allison/
Finally, THANK YOU to everyone in the AnkiDroid community who has already provided tons of guidance and feedback for this feature. It's 5x better than what I could have done working alone.

hi, looking for some anki add on recommendations that will complement well with what i already have:
- memory forest (+heatmap) add on
- Senchada (aesthetic tea timer add on, basically a simple study timer)
- modern stats
- the fixed zoom add on which doesn't reset your zoom every time you open up anki
- focus mode/fullscreen add on
looking for maybe some sort of spotify or music connection add on? background image add on?
Hi, I've been using Anki for several years and made thousands of cards already. However, making cards on the iOS platform, which is my favorite reading device, was definitely annoying, since I had to copy the sentence and switch between different apps. So I made this app.
How it works:
1. In any app, including Apple Books, Safari, or even a messaging app, select a sentence you come across and find necessary to collect.
2. Tap the Translate button in the option bar.
3. In the pop-up menu, select the word you want to look up, or see the translated sentence or context analysis to understand the sentence more thoroughly.
4. Tap Save to Anki after you confirm the preview of the card.
Finally, when several cards have been added, whenever you are ready, export the Anki .apkg package and share it with AnkiMobile. Enjoy your learning!
Pricing: Free for basic usage (no AI features), monthly $4.99 Plus or $8.99 Pro (AI and premium features) for covering server and AI costs. *ALL FREE during Testing Stage*
License: closed source. (We may open source it in the future)

It’s still early, so I’d really appreciate any feedback: what’s confusing, what’s missing, what breaks. Thanks!

FocusForce locks Anki until you reach a goal you set.
4 goals: a number of reviews, a number of correct answers, a timer, or finish today's due cards (all decks or one deck).
The lock: Anki stays on top and can't be minimized or closed. Stop early with your password, or choose Blind lock (no way out until the goal is done).
Also: home-screen widget, live counter while reviewing, stats calendar. Sessions resume after a crash.

Hey everyone!
Lately I've struggled to stay focused and finish my decks everyday. I finally found something that works for me and maybe it'll help you too.
HOW IT WORKS On screen is your Focus Friend and a timer. If the timer runs out before you click reveal, your buddy gets sad and you'll need to cheer them up by reviewing 5 cards before they are okay again.
You are not punished for not knowing a card. Only for not staying focused. (unless you choose hardcore mode, you maniacs. You can also turn the timer off to relax and just hang out with your buddy.)
You can move the buddy and timer to anywhere you want on the screen and it remembers that for each deck. Occasionally your study buddy will say messages complimenting you or encouraging you or just being snarky.
If you move to another app during your review and get distracted while a card is up, the timer will run out and they become sad.
But the way I've been using it is: if it's a card I think I should know, I'll give myself the full 10 seconds to try and recall and if I can't, I let the timer run out. It motivates me to keep going quickly to make them okay again. If it’s a really new card I’ll reveal it before waiting for the timer to run out in order to save time. You’ll know when to wait and think versus when to advance in order to learn.
You can change the character, timer length, appearance of the timer window, character/messages/timer window sizes, recovery behavior, and all sorts of things in the settings.
This is my first add-on so I hope it works well for everyone.

This would maximize the ergonomics of Anki on the Macbook. I know I can map actual keys like period, comma, letters, etc. to this, but I always wanted to map command and only that one button to flip cards. I think the problem is that pressing Command/Ctrl doesn't actual trigger an event in the macbook/system, which means that it wouldn't be possible, but I was wondering if it was.

Hi hi. I was using Anki for my language vocab cards, but adding new words to a synced list in Google Sheets. I was using the add-on Google Sheets to Anki, which no longer works following the update. So, now I'm looking for a replacement or suggestions for an improved workflow.
Has anyone used Google Sheets for Languages - Two-way Sync? Or have other ideas? I don't need anything complicated (i.e., my cards don't need AI, images, audio, gamification, color coding, etc, etc.).

Tired of pressing E just to bold one word mid-review? I made PopEdit: select text on a card, and a small toolbar pops up. One click and it's saved in your note.
- Bold, italic, underline, strike, x², x₂
- Text colors + night-mode-friendly highlights
- Copy / search in Browser
- Ctrl+Z undo, customizable buttons

I like to have Sundays off but that creates a backlog. I HATE seeing that.
So I'd like to manually change due date to distribute cards over the next 6 days. Is there a catch or is this a solid strategy?

I have been using anki ever since the start of this semester and rn the midfinals are closing in and I am getting quite a few quizzes here and there.
Is there a way to use my decks to study for a midfinal or a quiz or should I just stop solving my flashcards throughout the period of midfinals?

Memory Forest is my add-on that grows a pixel-art forest from your study history. Version 1.3.0 adds a study heatmap under it.

The forest shows how much you've learned over time, but not your individual days: one study day grows many trees at once. A heatmap gives every day its own square, so, like a lot of people, I kept Review Heatmap installed next to it. I wanted a heatmap that matches the forest, and that fixes the things I kept missing in the existing ones.
Before building it, I went through Review Heatmap's open GitHub issues and AnkiWeb reviews, a bunch of other heatmap add-ons, and posts here on Reddit, and made a list of what people complained about and what they liked, so the heatmap is based on that.

Some other quality-of-life features

I got 700 cards for 4 chapters for an anatomy exam.
Though these cards are very easy clozes (10s max usually). I do about 100-200 reviews a day.
I do include very easy info sometimes just to help me remember it just in case.
Just wondering if it's the right spot or not.

My vivo brad phone doesn't trust it and uninstalls it automatically every 2-ish days.
Is this app actually safe? If it is safe (as i believe it to be), then how can i get my phone to stop uninstalling automatically?

I was wondering if there was a way to revert my Onirigi to the old version, as I currently dislike the current one, especially since I can't change the sidebar to an image that isn't my background 🥲. As I was fiddling around with the controls I put on the "sakura" theme in hopes of changing the text colour, but now my homepage is an eyesore. This just demotivated me to do my flashcards lol, so I would really appreciate any insights.

hello. i am currently learning french, and after completing the famous 5000 most frequently used french words, PLEASE DON'T COMPLETE ALL OF YOUR CARDS! now, this doesn't mean that you shouldn't stop using them, but if you already have a 2k+ word language deck, you can delete the cards that have a frequency index higher than 2k. (most of the decks should have) 2k words is literally more than enough!! you don't need to know all the words, right? and worse, if you don't immerse, THEN ANKI WILL HAVE ALMOST ZERO EFFECT ON YOUR LANGUAGE JOURNEY!! when you see a word that you have in your deck in the wild, look it up. this might seem stupid, but you will get an "oh, i know this card!" momment. after you encounter it, you should remember what it means effortlessly. well, that's all i gotta say, so see ya. ✌️
Please check out my Substack post: Anki/Spaced Repetition - How I started winning pub trivia
Just about how Anki has changed my life and has allowed my pub trivia team to become the consistent highest performers.
Not trying to make any money off of this, just wanted to share this with people who hopefully share my excitement and love for spaced repetition.
If you have any feedback on my writing, please let me know, I would like to be a more active member in this community and any feedback that might help me have a better effect here would be much appreciated.
Also, if you guys have any decks that really helped you with your trivia performance I would love if you could drop them here for me <3
Thanks :)
PSA: Obligatory no AI used, but you could probs tell from my somewhat shitty writing lol.

Hi!
I just set up Yomitan and was getting ready to mine some words but I have trouble getting it as I want it.
All I want is a way to add the English meaning of a word, or even a few meanings as the back of a reversible card. But in all the different alternatives I can select in Yomitan (Glossary, Glossary-First, Glossary-Brief and so on) I get a load of example sentences and other info that I don't want. I'm sure it's useful but I'm a simple man and I want to keep things simple for my brain. So for example if one side says "読む" I want the other side to say "to read" (or, I would accept if it adds a few more meanings) but I don't care that it's a go-dan transitive verb and I most of all don't want example sentences that spoil the meaning when the card is reversed.
Is this possible, and if so, how?
Thanks
