What do you like best about Anki?

What I like best about this application is that it's very much easy to use and it's suitable for all students ranging from secondary to university, even in a call center where things change and you have to remeber. It allows me to stay on my A-game after studying a specific topic. Active memory at it's best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

What I dislike about this application is that it's not very pretty to look at and this can cause most students to deter from using thus though it comes with a lot of benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"For brute force memorization"

What do you like best about Anki?

Spaced repitition is a proven method for recalling vast amounts of information. Anki is by far the easiest way to implement this method of study, and it has a ton of very powerful tools and plugins to help you get to where you need to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

There definitely is a learning curve, so it can be intimidating to get started. I would definitely recommend looking for pre-made decks from trustworthy sources to get you started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Anki uses spaced repetition to make learning easy"
5/5
What do you like best about Anki?

Great programme for remembering things. Makes it very easy to enter a list of things to remember and then it tests you at regular intervals so you never forget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

There is nothing to dislike. It has a bit of a learning curve, but if you use it every day it soon becomes second nature. It does look old and not like a modern app, but that is not an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential memorization application"
5/5
What do you like best about Anki?

It is the best option to memorize anything in the long term. The algorithm to perform reviews in certain periods is quite good and effective. It is compatible with HTML, LaTeX and Javascript, which allows you to personalize the created notes at will. The latter I consider essential, since my notes have a familiar and characteristic touch that facilitates understanding and memorization. There are also very useful internet plugins that can be used with this application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

It is not easy to use from the beginning, and it is not very intuitive. A new user can get tired of the application quickly because they do not master their features very well or they can use it without knowing all the Anki functionalities. Another disadvantage is the impossibility of obtaining the application on an iOS device for free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Keep things always in mind"
5/5
What do you like best about Anki?

he human mind works in such a way that it needs to check things periodically so as not to forget them. Anki is responsible for keeping what we always need in mind to use it later according to our needs. It is very useful academically and also in other areas of life. Anki allows me to edit notes using programming languages ​​and verify how other users have made their notes, thanks to the public decks sharing function. The notes are synchronized in my account to later review them on my smartphone and continue studying what I created. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

Anki requires a lot of training to be fully understood. It is not easy for a beginner user to run into this app, it is necessary to access many tutorials and have a prior knowledge of programming languages ​​to achieve better results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best way to memorize something"
5/5
What do you like best about Anki?

Anki is the best free alternative to memorize relevant data, especially for the academic area. Anki synchronizes very well with mobile devices and I can always use it to review information that I need to keep in my long-term memory. When you know how to use it, you can take advantage of all its features. It also has the possibility to include plugins that make learning or memorizing the notes easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

It is not easy to use or intuitive, and if you are a beginner, you miss out on many features. You need to have certain knowledge about codes and languages ​​to take advantage of many functions, such as javascript or HTML. Anki's appearance is not the most beautiful and can be improved.

"Anki is the most effective study tool out there"
5/5
What do you like best about Anki?

I like that it doesn't just let me passively flip through cards like quizlet or other similar online flash card creators do. It tracks your progress and repeats cards to you based on how well you know them. There is a science behind this type of learning, which is why most medical students use Anki and love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

I dislike that the format appears barren. In order to improve the aesthetic quality of the cards you have to learn a bit about the coding. That can take some time but once you get the hang of it your cards turn out decent looking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Difficulty getting started "
3.5/5
What do you like best about Anki?

Customizable with add-ons; free! (and very fair $25 for iOS app to support development); ease of import/export of decks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

Really hard to get started and understand all of the variables that can be manipulated. Wish there was a built-in set up guide to make the learning curve less steep. Visualization of trends could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Anki?

I love that Anki allows me to create a lot of flash cards and decks quickly to share with the students I tutor. Especially useful in language acquisition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Anki?

I've never been able to sync Anki on my PC with the app on my phone. I'm not sure what the issue is. But I feel like I'm missing out on the opportunity to make cards with more information easier than I can on my phone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
