Something like a subscription where if you update the deck the subscribed people automatically see the update and can either decide to reset the updated cards to new or keep them like they are. Right now if a deck developer wants to update the deck everyone have to go through a non-user friendly process

Where you can decide how much money you earn through reviews (es. 1 review = 3 coins) and through coins you build your city/village, ecc.

  • bonus if you keep the streak
  • you can decide that difficult decks give more coins
  • and so on

Make your suggestion to this gamification in comments!

Right now there isn't a native zoom function in anki (and it is a really basic function). There is an addon but it has really mixed feedbacks because it often doesn't works

A more feature rich Ankiweb closer to the PC version for power users without access to their PC

Give your suggestions to make it possibile in the comments.

I feel like right now anki is only for advanced users. A lot of friends of mine would use the system if it was more appealing

Some ideas are good, and some ideas sound good at first but are actually terrible when you reflect on it carefully. There should be a system in place for voting down bad ideas.

Would be great to have something like "Anki service pack 1" or "Newbie addon collection" and the new user just batch download everything without going through painful process of choosing everyone and downloading it

Improved browsing (sorting by tags); also being able to use the Empty Card tool; dream would be to have add-on usability

Would be awesome to be able to edit cards without opening the browser, and make simple corrections/additions from the reviewer

See here for sketches in draw.io: https://www.reddit.com/r/Anki/comments/epxd53/addon_to_view_only_those_tags_from_a_specified/femgu7y?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x


  1. an additional button in the browser + remove sidebar
  2. new interface
  • opened on button click
  • crucial feature: when deck(s) selected, hide tags and models that are not used within the deck(s). Vice versa for selecting tags and models.
  • selecting still operates the same search syntax as currently
  • what is not shown but should be included:
  • collapse button, where the (+) expand button has been activated
  • option to show unused decks/tags/models anyway
  • …?
  • The emojis and colors are not really necessary
  • Probably it's better to have decks, tags, and models not side-by-side but above each other (like in the current sidebar). This benefits deep hierarchies.

Make an add on where you can display the different card fields in columns instead of rows so that I can view associated images on a second monitor as opposed to having to scroll down

Would be dope to download customized note types with HTML, css

I was rearranging my duplicates when i though that there are lots of situations in which different cards with the same front can have different meanings (for example "Transport" is both an english, romanian and french word, so that my three cards in those languages are viewed by anki like duplicates). Yes, i could make something like "word (language)" but i think that a function in which you natively select ignore this duplicate so that it doesn't compare in your duplicates search again would be dope

Add the ability to choose which decks are for sync and which are not for
