About this app

Memorize anything with AnkiDroid!

AnkiDroid lets you learn flashcards very efficiently by showing them just before you would forget. It is fully compatible with the spaced repetition software Anki (including synchronization), which is available for Windows/Mac/Linux/ChromeOS/iOS.

Study all sorts of things wherever and whenever you want. Make good use of idle times on bus trips, in supermarket queues or any other waiting situation!

Create your own flashcard decks or download free decks compiled for many languages and topics (thousands available).

Add material through the desktop application Anki or directly through Ankidroid. The application even supports adding material automatically from a dictionary!

Doesn't work. Many, many people have complained about the storage access bug making it impossible to use the app, but the only workarounds I've seen are ridiculous. ==UPDATE== I was able to uninstall, remove all local data, and reinstall. This worked. Luckily I had synced everything with AnkiWeb and was able to redownload my local files afterwards. It's a shame that this was necessary at all, but I think this is feasible solution for many people.

Hi, yes. The latest ver guides users to a page including the info: "The Play Store restricts AnkiDroid's access to your current collection... If you have a current backup on AnkiWeb, it is recommended that you reinstall AnkiDroid and re-download your data." I informed a common solution in limited word count. Anyway, thanks for the good will notice.

Cards are good, options are good, it's fast. But audio on my synced deck does not play. I had to use my phone's browser to get my card audio to work. Tried hours of troubleshooting abd nothing worked. Would give higher rating if this was fixed. EDIT: I managed to fix the problem by uploading my deck to Ankiweb and sitting through an hour or so of downloading it to the app. But it works now, all media intact. Great app, but am still giving 4 stars because the troubleshooting took a lot to figure

Hi, you might want to confirm if the audio files have been downloaded or not by "Check media" option from the three dot menu in the main screen: https://faqs.ankiweb.net/media-files-may-take-time-to-sync.html - Also, FAQ about media files is here: https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/wiki/FAQ#why-doesnt-my-sound-or-image-work-on-ankidroid

Once I updated to the newest version, media does not automatically play when viewing a card or it's answer. It's the most annoying thing ever. I've looked through the settings over and over and there is nothing there to fix this issue. Wasn't a problem before the update and reverting to a previous version deletes my files. 2 stars until fixed.

Hi, have you already set not only "Auto display answer" in the setting, but also each deck option configuration ("Auto Advance")? Also, in general, it is possible to uninstall the current version without deleting your collection. Even if not in your case, you can also export your collection to safe place before the reverting process, just in case.
