For those that aren’t familiar, Anki is a very popular multi-device flashcard app with spaced repetition. It’s one of those FOSS apps that’s fairly popular even outside the tech/FOSS community, and it is used by a lot of (most?) med students, pre-med students, etc. It’s definitely the best flashcard software out there.
This update is bigger than others because now image occlusion is built in, which is where you can build flashcards out of photos/screenshots by covering up parts of it. Super helpful for memorizing and practising with diagrams (ex. anatomy). Before you’d need an add-on for it (of which there are many, Anki has a pretty big add-on development community too)
Anki is absolutely awesome. Since there is a large amount of community made decks, I found one that was specifically made for the book I used for learning Japanese. In addition to that, I also found a free Japanese-English dictionary app that had the option to add words as flashcards to a specified Anki deck. Even though it doesn’t have the most modern looking or intuitive UI, Anki is my main tool for learning Japanese because there are so many useful integrations and a large community behind it, and it is completely free.
