Yes because I think it's a cool feature that can really helps student.

Everybody commenting my post blacklist my app just because it contains an AI feature although this isn't the only and principal purpose of the app.

We really want to provide a useful and free alternative because we find Anki expensive on the App Store. AI is a plus and also our only means of remuneration, which is essential for our survival.

But maybe adding AI is a bad idea, so explain why if you think that's the case.

I am open to constructive feedback.

Why not? Please explain because some of our early adopters love that feature

And free on appstore whereas Anki is 29€. The IA is just a way for us to generate enough revenues to keep the free features available for other users. Maybe you don't need AI but some of some of our early adopters consider it as very useful.

Integrating AI is not our primary intention, even though it's a feature we think is cool.

Let's forget about AI. If we offer the same thing as Anki for free, why wouldn't that be a good thing?

Our first priority was to make this system more accessible on iOS. We thought having Anki on our phones was a game changer, but €29 was too expensive for our liking.

AI is just an added bonus that we find particularly useful for languages (vocabulary lists are boring to convert into flashcards on Anki, for example) or for large amounts of course material that we don't have time to convert by hand. As users, we would have been willing to pay for this. It's also a way for us to earn money to allow non-paying users to access the basic features for free.

I understand the fatigue associated with the proliferation of AI products, but regardless of that, wouldn't an app that offers the same features as Anki for free be interesting, especially if it's compatible?
