KANKI

KAnki is an Anki-based Kindle flashcard app with spaced repetition, custom decks, and no account requirement.

PERSONAL NOTE FROM KINDLEMODSHELFGUY (author and maintainer)

KAnki is one of my own favorite mods. I already loved Anki, but this Kindle build makes spaced repetition feel perfect on an e ink screen.

Kurizu was unbelievably helpful. He spent a lot of time debugging the app with me, explaining changes, and polishing features so it would shine on Kindle. He never asked for anything, but I think this is an amazing tool, so please show some love if you have enjoyed KindleModShelf or KAnki.

Projects like the Kindle PIRACY tools receive plenty of donations. Wonderful apps such as KAnki often fly under the radar. Let us change that and keep this project thriving.
