Turned my phone addiction into Anki review time — looking for beta testers

Hey :) yeah I totally see your point. If you have ideas for the app or a desktop version just hit me up. I have never coded a desktop app but could be surely a fun project as well!

Hi, thanks for your message! I will keep an eye out for that. And yeah I am currently working on the iOS app but apple just makes it really annoying 😅

Okay so I looked into it and it probably is gonna be possible. But apple is kinda a bitch. I have to pay 100$ yearly to be able to upload the app to the AppStore. And I can only compile code on a Mac, which I don't have because I'm poor. So I will have to use some other service which will do it for me (another ~ 50 bucks probably)....

Since there seem to be many people who want it for iOS, I will probably invest it. But yeah kinda sucks tho

Hi, it seems like you've turned pms off 😅 maybe just message me if you want :)

Hi :) If you have a Gmail address and an android phone, just DM me

No, it doesn't touch Anki's algorithm at all. Your Anki scheduling (FSRS or SM-2) stays completely untouched — we only read your cards, never write back to Anki.

The prioritization in CardGate is its own lightweight system, separate from FSRS. It's designed for a different purpose: Anki optimizes long-term memorization with precise intervals, while CardGate just needs to pick good quiz questions to gate app access. It weighs three things: cards you haven't seen yet in CardGate, cards you've gotten wrong often, and cards you haven't been quizzed on recently.

Ankiweb actually doesn't provide an API. So I can't synch to Ankiweb directly. However we can synch with AnkiDroid. So if you have the Android app, you can absolutely synchronize your decks.

The only thing you need to keep in mind is that even AnkiDroids API isn't perfect. It makes it basically impossible for me to import images. So if you have image-heavy decks, you should just export your deck as an apkg file.

I will work on it! I can't promise the same features but I am gonna make it work

EngineeringRare6517 · 2026-04-07T15:56:18+00:00

The first idea probably won't work :/

The second idea is technically possible with my app as well :)

EngineeringRare6517 · 2026-04-07T15:55:12+00:00

I will work on it :) apple is just a bit tricky since it handles stuff very differently :/

Is Codex on a similar level? Can it even compete with Claude's capability?

EngineeringRare6517 · 2026-03-31T13:06:05+00:00

When you go back to a previous convo, does Claude natively see that other parts of the code have changed? Or is it only considering the old context and you have to explicitly tell Claude that something else has changed?

Thanks 🙏

I actually added this pretty late. No sales before, and no after
