AnkiMobile widget

Perhaps it would be possible to create AnkiMobile widget that would display preview of front on the left and back on the right side?

And it would just display cards randomly from a chosen deck.

I’m thinking that would be helpful

Thank you for the suggestion, I will keep an eye on demand for this.

When it comes to widgets for Anki Mobile, I would prefer the ability to quickly add notes in certain configurations (note type + deck) or directly access saved searches (notes added today …) The highly flexible grid widgets from Drafts (Widgets | Drafts User Guide) come to mind.

And another suggestion provided by some other users was due counts and/or a review heatmap.

With the release of iOS 17 this fall, I’d love to be able to study certain decks right from my Home Screen without having to open the app. This is a feature that hasn’t been possible before, but could be very beneficial (for me at least) for making stronger study habits. Being able to study from the Home Screen of my iPad would be great too. Even a non-interactive widget visible from the StandBy screen tracking your streak would be awesome

I would appreciate an iOS widget showing due counts and my streak. A heatmap would also be nice. Albeit not an absolutely necessary feature, but a nice QOL addition.

Having widget displaying some random cards that would just be changing once in a while would help to learn something subconsciously, especially on these days you don’t feel like doing reviews :joy:

An iPhone home screen widget to remind me to review my cards is long overdue. Please consider implementing it!

The notification is not enough for this, so a widget is very helpful.

There was a request posted on the Anki subreddit for a heatmap widget for AnkiMobile, and this seems to have gotten 500+ votes in one day: r/Anki Begging for an Anki widget Day

like this:

This heatmap widget seems to be an app named Checker. Users can create a calendar with manual input: app: Checker - Habit Tracker

I think this is a great idea! The demand is certainly there as it has been raised many times over the last few years. When old this be possible to implement?

Oh my, yes! I hope this would like this, I don’t even care if it looks ugly but a widget is enough.
