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/ |

That's a strange one... it exists, (Create Filtered Deck - Long Press - Options - Untick Reschedule) but only works well in the V2 Scheduler. The V1 scheduler doesn't handle cards in the red (learn/relearn) well.
The problem with the V2 scheduler, which makes people hesistant about upgrading is the upgrade process will move all cards in the red queue back to the blue (new)/green (review) queues. https://anki.tenderapp.com/kb/anki-ecosystem/the-anki-21-sch...
> Switching the scheduler will empty all filtered decks, and reset any cards that are in learning. It will also force the next sync to be a full sync.

No. Damien's opinions on funding: https://faqs.ankiweb.net/why-does-ankimobile-cost-more-than-... . The iOS app is paid ($24.99) and funds AnkiWeb, so offer to buy it for a friend if you can.
Personally, I'm taking donations (caveat: AnkiDroid is a port, I'm one of a few contributors, and the money would go to me, rather than Damien, who runs the rest of the ecosystem (AnkiWeb/AnkiDesktop/AnkiMobile)): https://github.com/sponsors/david-allison-1/

AnkiApp isn't part of the ecosystem. It's frustrating telling people that they were mislead, and data extraction isn't easy for non-technical users: https://anki.tenderapp.com/kb/anki-ecosystem/ankiapp-is-not-...
