Idea:
Develop a home screen widget that displays your daily review progress and current streak in a visually engaging format. Unlike an interactive review widget (where you answer cards directly), this widget focuses on motivating users by showing:
Daily Review Streak: Number of consecutive days you’ve completed your reviews.
Today’s Progress: Counts of new, learning, and review cards completed.
Goal Visualization: A simple progress indicator (e.g., a progress bar or circular chart) showing how close you are to your daily review goal.
Motivational Message: Optionally display a brief motivational quote or tip to encourage continued learning.
Objective:
Keep users motivated and accountable by making their review progress and streak visible at a glance every time they check their home screen—reinforcing daily study habits without adding extra steps.
Benefits
Motivation: Streaks are a proven motivational tool (as seen in apps like Duolingo). Seeing your daily progress encourages you to keep the streak going.
At-A-Glance Information: The widget provides immediate feedback on your study activity without needing to open AnkiDroid.
Simple and Lightweight: As it only displays text and a simple graphic, it won’t heavily impact battery or performance.
Customization: Users could choose which metrics (e.g., total reviews vs. streak length) appear, and even pick from a set of motivational messages.
