About
Anki is a powerful, free, and open-source education technology program originating from Australia, designed to make remembering things easy and efficient through its Spaced Repetition System (SRS) flashcard platform. It allows users to significantly reduce study time or increase learning capacity. Anki boasts a comprehensive product portfolio including customizable flashcards with features like cloud sync, integrated search, multi-device support, offline functionality, CSV import, gamification, and dark mode, all while being privacy-focused with no tracking. It is extensible via plugins and extensions. Available across Mac, Android (AnkiDroid), iPhone, iPad (commercial versions at $24.99), and BSD, Anki is widely recognized as the most used SRS, particularly among hundreds of thousands of medical students globally, supported by a huge community. While praised for its power and effectiveness in academic and interview preparation, some users note a steep learning curve, an uninviting or poor UI, and occasional bloat or lag, with calls for UI modernization. It competes with tools like Quizlet and Brainscape.
