Contanki is a new add-on for Anki which allows users to control Anki using a gamepad or other controller device.

Features:

- Comfortably review your cards using a gamepad - no more sore hands, eyes, or back!
- Control almost any Anki feature without a keyboard or mouse
- Pull up a helpful overlay to remind you of the control mappings
- Cursor control for limited situations where the gamepad is insufficient
- Fully customisable control bindings
- Much more!

You can read more [at the GitHub page](https://github.com/roxgib/anki-contanki/), and an alpha is currently [available for download](https://github.com/roxgib/anki-contanki/releases/download/v0.5.3-alpha/contanki-v0.5.3a.ankiaddon). It’s pretty much feature complete and I’m aiming for a beta release to coincide with the release of Anki 2.1.50.

If you encounter any issues, please post here or in the [GitHub Issue Tracker](https://github.com/roxgib/anki-contanki/issues).

Currently supports 2.1.50 and 2.1.49, but I’m planning to support down to 2.1.45 so let me know of any issues from that version forward.

Happy reviewing!
