Could we add Gamification features to AnkiDroid similar to the copycat app “AnkiGame”?

DM me for links to AnkiGame details

Please no!! I hate gamification.

Hi, I’m a developer specialising in add-ons for Anki gamefication(Nothing to do with official Anki). In Anki on mobile devices, I can use card templates to add various game-like features, like this. Works on AnkiMobile, AnkiDroid and Desktop (AnkiWeb can’t play audio).

Other card templates currently under development include a seconds-counting progress bar and RFG-style random Gif animations(Backgrounds, heroes, enemies, explosion animations, etc). I think it would be interesting to have pop-ups like hit markers or puppy reinforcements.

But the disadvantage is that its not easy to change these note types (These are interesting but obviously interfere for learning). Also, using existing templates requires knowledge of HTML and CSS. So I want to use add-on to quickly change the template or change the design randomly.

@Shigeyuki Great work. Is it possible to apply this template to an existing deck?

It is possible but complicated, so I want to make these steps easier(Shared deck or add-on).

If using this in existing decks, it is necessary to change the note type.

  • [PC] Brose > Select Cards > Right click > Notes > Change Note Type

This prototype template has six fields.

  • Front, Back, image, info, sound, more info

When changing from a note type with more than six fields, the information in the fields will be lost (Need to add fields to protect them).

Also, the width of Front and Back is too narrow so they cannot be shown if the text is long.

This is a really interesting topic! I’d love to see more gamification features for Anki or apps that support gamification through Anki. I’d love to be able to make something like that one day since I use Anki to study so much in my workflow.

There are no gamification add-ons available for AnkiDroid, but there are already many gamification add-ons available for Desktop. Try using them to play and learn.
