Finally a meaningful update.
ANKI app review:
4/20/16: Love the app. Still need backups to be saved to email or Dropbox. Otherwise, nothing else is urgently needed.
3/3/16: happy to see the new update. Its a big one. However, Im too scared to update right now because if there Is a major bug, then I would have to use my laptop or the anki web. I will way for more reviews to show up to make sure it is safe to update. I did not see an option for dark/night mode in the log of updates. I hope its implemented. While using the iPad pro, the bright white background really hurts my eyes, even at the lowest brightness setting. Because the screen is so big, theres a lot of light coming at my face. I know I can use the inverted screen mode that iOS offers, but then all my pictures are inverted to. Because of this, I have to keep switching from inverted mode to normal mode when there is a picture in a card.
Update on January 2016: still no meaningful update. Im using this on my iPad pro. While creating a card, selecting a word is buggy. The cursor scrolls vertically even though I am just tapping and holding a single letter. Still cannot zoom in on pictures. The boxes for creating cards is too small. Still cannot paste a picture in to cards. Have to select through photo library, which is a pain.
I know this was promoted as a companion app. But that was several years ago. For $25 dollars, I expected the app to perform at an standard level after a couple years of development. This app is neglected. Save your money and use the ankiweb. Or use Flashcards Deluxe, which is a premium app with more functionality than this pos.
Previous review Anki: please add an action extension which would allow us to make a cloze deletion card from other apps directly to anki. We still need to come up with a efficient way to creating anki flashcards on the ios and I think this will be a great step towards it. Also, the app desperately needs a share sheet which should allow us to input content into a specific deck. Charge us more but at least get it done. Include some in-app purchases if it needs to be that way.
