I find this especially helpful if I want to show a friend, or just to "try out" a deck and then decide if I like it or not. So even though it would usually sync from Ankiweb because no conflicts would arise, you can overwrite Ankiweb by uploading the local, and then going to your phone or other device and re-syncing.
#Sync ankiweb with ankiapp download
If you check this box, close the preferences window, and then sync, anki will come up with the window asking you if you want to download the remote or upload the local. There you'll see a check box that says "On next sync, force changes in one direction". You can go to your desktop, and then under "Tools", choose "Preferences" and then go over a tab to the "Network" tab. But you think "oh no, I don't want to actually save that as a review". Let's say for example, that your friend wanted to see how Anki works, so you show him on your phone.
Lastly, you can also optionally "force" changes in one direction from your desktop. This also means you can study on your phone, sync, and create a new deck on your desktop and then sync from your desktop and there should be no problem, you just have to remember to sync your phone one last time, after you sync your desktop. So, if you study on your phone and sync it, and then study a different deck on your desktop, and then sync, Anki will not ask you to overwrite anything, because there aren't any conflicts (but after syncing your phone and then your desktop, you would have to sync your phone again to get the changes from your desktop). But, as far as I'm aware, this only happens when there are actual conflicts in studying. If you study on your desktop, don't sync, then study on your phone or another device and sync, and then go back to your desktop to sync, Anki will ask you to force the changes in one direction, either by overwriting the "local" (what's on your desktop) with what is online, or uploading from your desktop to overwrite your "remote" (what's online) If you're just studying using one device (like your desktop), there should be no problems - as realmayo said, it's just like backing up your decks/stats Russian, you get decks for English->Russian, but also for Russian->English.The two above posts are correct as far as I'm aware, but just to clarify, It would be great to have a site integrated with git so people can collaborate on github.Īlso, classification of decks by language is something I miss. Perhaps the people studying medicine who create decks on their own don't have this problem, but it is something I see in the web site. There are a lot of shitty, outdated decks and instead of collaborating to fix them people just upload their own shitty deck. I also hate that the anki shared decks web site does not encourage collaboration, or at least not the decks I see in their web site. Is there any reason why these apps have to keep the database state locally? Why not just create a web service? The problem with this model would be keeping the server infrastructure running and getting some money to pay the bills, but it looks much simpler. If you're losing data, post in the /r/anki subreddit - Anki automatically generates backups and they'll walk you through restoring them. If you're a med student, I don't recommend moving off Anki. There are a million and one spaced repetition systems out there, but Anki's plugin system and shared decks make for a very strong network effect. The main reason why everyone still uses Anki despite its issues is because it is still hands-down the best solution out there, despite all the bugs and clunkiness. YC funded a startup in this area (Hickory) and they're. Students are very unwilling to buy software, and if you use ads you end up like Quizlet. The lack of "worth-it" alternatives is due to the fact that there's no money in this market. but you gotta build it yourself (there's no easy way to sync sqlite with some serverside database (ignoring firebase/couchdb/pouchdb for various technical reasons)): You're basically doing multi-master database replication. Getting syncing working without resorting to uploading entire SQLite databases is nontrivial. I'm building an open source Anki clone, and lemme tell you shit's surprisingly hard.
