I can’t create question masks over the images. I have the option for image occlusion in my iPad Anki but can’t use it… Please guide. @dae ---

I’m afraid add-ons only work with the computer version of Anki. While it’s possible to display image occlusion cards inside AnkiMobile, you need to use the add-on in the computer version to create them. ---

Last year, you said in a reply that image occlusion will take months to come on iOS… When will it come ? Any update ? ---

I said “months at the least” back in Oct, and I’m afraid that’s still the case - I am still busy reworking Anki’s foundations. ---

It is not working in my iPad 8th generation. It keeps on showing loading in the status section. I tried to create cards ignoring that but can’t create one. ---

Also it will be great if you add drag and drop feature for iPad & also Apple pencil support for drawing the question mask boxes. ---

The image occlusion for iOS is updated and made using only javascript.
