Text is not visible neither on card nor on answer in all decks. Edit note of cards are ok, texts are available, sound is working. Ankiweb is alright.

I have a similar problema. Damien Elmes via Anki Forums wrote to me : “ I tested some of your cards on AnkiDroid and they appear correctly for me. If problems persist for you, please try updating to the AnkiDroid beta version.”

I’m trying to do it, but I don’t know how to do it.

@MariaM You may want to try the latest beta of the next version of AnkiDroid, as @2nodefortsuB say.

@MariaM @2nodefortsuB You can download and install it from the Google Play Store by the ways in the following announcement: [AnkiDroid not available in Play Store for new Android versions [WORKAROUND INCLUDED] · Issue #13797 · ankidroid/Anki-Android · GitHub](https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/issues/13797)

Also, you can download it directly from the developer site: [Releases · ankidroid/Anki-Android · GitHub](https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/releases)  
In the choices of the page above, [AnkiDroid-2.16.0beta5-arm64-v8a.apk](https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/releases/download/v2.16.0beta5/AnkiDroid-2.16.0beta5-arm64-v8a.apk) is suitable for most devices.

Hello, I have the same problem.  
I tried to download the latest beta, arm64-v8a version but it doesn’t work.  
So i tried to download all the others version (universal…) and they dont work too.  
Then I tried to download old Ankidroid like 2.15 but still dont work

It works perfectly fine on my PC  
Any idea to fix this ?

You might want to try this:

> [@Cards are blank, but saved in database](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/cards-are-blank-but-saved-in-database/33046/2):
>
> Try updating android webview ( [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.webview&hl=de\_DE](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.webview&hl=de_DE)) and restarting your phone.

By the way, I think that now you can simply download the latest version, 2.16.2, from the Play Store.

I’m having the exact same problem since an update i did this morning. I tried to uninstall ankidroid and reinstall an older version, but the bug persist. I already have Anki System WebView installed on my phone as well. Any help would be much appreciated.

How about clearing the cache of AnkiDroid app and restarting the device.
