Awesome, thank you for the info. Anki is a tool I use and love but I know very little about the behind the scenes work.

>* User onboarding & UX - We get tons of bad reviews: "All my cards have been deleted" - this is because we fail to explain how Anki/Spaced Repetition works and that we take control of scheduling. People download AnkiDroid expecting flashcards, and we can do much better in this area.

Somewhat related, but I would like a way to "cram" cards (ie. temporarily review all cards in a deck, in random order, without affecting anything about their spaced repetition timing). I feel like this must exist but I haven't found it. Do you know how to do this?

Also, how does Anki support the costs of Ankiweb? Is there a way I can contribute? It's not immediately obvious to me from clicking around on Ankiweb.

Finally, is this just a rip-off of Anki or is it legit? https://www.ankiapp.com/
