How to import from CSV or database into existing deck?

Hello, I’m using Anki Web and the mobile app. Is there a way to bulk import new cards? I cannot find any documentation for this.

Yes, you can import packaged decks (apkg) and text files (csv) into AnkiMobile. Look for the Add/Export button at the bottom of the deck list – Deck List - AnkiMobile Manual.

You cannot import into AnkiWeb.

You might have an easier time importing into Anki Desktop though – and the main manual has the most details about importing – Importing - Anki Manual.

Another Add/Export will let you import from iTunes. In most cases, you’ll find it easier to import from another app, such as the Files app. Tapping on a .csv file should automatically open AnkiMobile and import the file.
