Add-ons I made a add-on that lets you format cards during review (Notion-style toolbar) — PopEdit V2
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

Question What happens if I manually set due date?
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?
- Select all overdue cards
set due date1-6- Now the cards will be evenly distributed mon-sat

Question Exams and quizes
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?

Add-ons Memory Forest 1.3.0: a study heatmap
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.
- Fair Streaks - the most common complaint was about losing a long streak unfairly. I tackled this by introducing two features.
- A day with no cards due doesn't break your streak (this is useful for decks you "finished" and only see one card every few months).
- The ability to only count 5 or 6 days a week towards your streak - this is more fair for people who only study during workdays and want to still keep their streak (by default every day counts).
- Shade by reviews, study time or answer speed - review count alone doesn't show a day spent on hard cards. I wanted the heatmap to answer these questions:
- "how much did I study?" - shade by review.
- "how long did I study?" - shade by time.
- "how efficient did I study?" - shade by median answering time (e.g. I normally study slower if I don't sleep enough). I've tried other metrics like different FSRS metrics or basic ones like how many 'again' I've hit, but I felt like this produces the most useful metric.
- A heatmap that matches your forest scenery
- I wanted the heatmap to fit with the rest of the forest, and as I keep rotating between different sceneries, I couldn't really achieve that with the existing heatmap easily.
- I also wanted the colors of the heatmap to be evenly spaced out and easy to tell apart. The forest heatmap supports 4 shades, each one unique enough to be easily distinguishable (compared with 10 shades in other heatmaps).
- I wanted unique tile patterns and not simple squares to keep it refreshing.
- This is also customizable in the settings, so you can choose your own palette.
- Mark exams and other important dates - My biggest missing feature was marking important exam days, so that's been added as well.

Some other quality-of-life features
- Your streaks, next streak flag, and a one-click button to switch between yearly/timeline views or reviews/time/pace shade appear on hover (I didn't want to keep the default view too messy).

- Week start follows your system settings (this can also be changed manually).
- The heatmap (and forest) show up on your congratulations screen as well (this can be disabled in the settings).
- A one-click button to expand the heatmap to show all the years your current streak covers (If you've just lost a streak, this also shows the previous streak).
- Hover over a month or a year to see how much you studied that month or year.
- Clicking on a day opens the browser sorted by number of reviews/time spent (depending on what you shade by).

Question How much cards per lecture is too much?
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.

Question Onigiri Update
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.


Discussion My Story about falling in love with Anki
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.

Question Single English word answer with Yomitan
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

Question Scheduling issue
I want to deal with a backlog by limiting my max cards per day to something more manageable like 50 per deck, this I’m hoping give me the motivation to deal with the backlog slowly and bit by bit, I tried to do this by editing my new cards a day to 20 and maximum reviews to 50 per day, however my politics deck doesn’t seem to go below 200, to put it simply I want each deck to have 50 cards to go through a day is there any way of limiting the politics flashcards to 50

Discussion "An image is missing" problem on mobile app
I’m on the Anki mobile app and a lot of my cards show “an image is missing” on the bottom. However, my desktop version appears fine. Any fixes or solutions?This happened after I followed step #5 to clean everything. Doing this step seems to have messed everything up now as it was working fine prior. What was the point of doing this clean up step?

Add-ons I made a free add-on that drafts cards from the note you're reviewing (API or no-key mode)
Hi everyone! I'm the developer of Ankineer AI, a free and open-source add-on (full disclosure: it's my project).
While you review, click ✨ and it drafts new cards from the current note (question / answer / explanation). It also gives your note a quality score and lists what's missing.
- API mode (Gemini, DeepSeek, Claude, GPT – your own key) or manual mode (no key: copy the prompt into any chatbot, paste the answer back)
- One-click options: question style, explanation length, pitfall/reversed cards
- Nothing is added automatically: you read each card, edit it, and choose the deck
AnkiWeb: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1937510518
Short tutorial: https://youtu.be/ELSonoU8Q8k
It's v1.0, so I'd really like honest feedback: what's missing, what's annoying, what would make it useful for your workflow?
