TaskHero for Anki
Earn TaskHero points and complete your daily study habit
while reviewing in Anki.
For Anki 26.8.1 or later on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Requires a TaskHero account.

How rewards work
With the default settings, every 10 reviews earns 1 TaskHero point. Finish
3 batches (30 reviews) to complete your linked daily habit too. You can keep
earning points after reaching your daily goal.
Choose a batch size of at least 10 reviews, earn 1–3 points per batch, and set
your own daily batch goal. Again, Hard, Good, and Easy all count equally.
Get started
Sync your collection before connecting so existing mobile reviews are included
in your starting history.
- In Anki, open Tools → Add-ons → Get Add-ons… and enter 1715570135.
See the AnkiWeb listing.
- Install the add-on and restart Anki.
- In TaskHero, open Integrations & API → Anki, generate an Anki token, and
copy it.
- In Anki, open Tools → TaskHero for Anki → Settings…, paste the token,
and click Test connection.
- Click Create “Study Anki”, or Refresh habits to select an existing
habit that repeats every day with one repetition.
- Choose your reward settings and click Save. You're ready to study.
For manual installation, download taskhero-for-anki.ankiaddon from
GitHub Releases, choose
Tools → Add-ons → Install from file…, then restart Anki. Both installation
methods use the same add-on ID. Updating an earlier manual copy disables the old
copy and keeps your saved connection and progress; leave the old copy disabled.

Studying on your phone
Reviews in AnkiMobile and AnkiDroid earn rewards after you sync them to Anki
on your computer with the add-on connected. The add-on itself runs on your
computer, not your phone.
Use one connected computer per synced collection to avoid duplicate rewards.
Mobile reviews not yet on your computer can count when they arrive in a later
sync, even if you studied before connecting or while disconnected.
A few things to know
- Start fresh: existing reviews on your computer aren't rewarded when you
first connect.
- Daily reset: progress follows your TaskHero day, and unfinished batches
don't carry over. If you change your timezone or day rollover in TaskHero,
click Refresh habits, then Save in the add-on settings.
- Undo: undoing a review within 10 seconds prevents its reward. Redo doesn't
restore that credit, and rewards already sent can't be reversed from Anki.
See the known limitations.
Disconnect or uninstall
Before changing accounts or replacing your Anki token, choose Disconnect
in the add-on settings. This removes the saved token, cancels unsent rewards,
and resets your batch and daily-goal progress. Reviews already present on your
computer when you reconnect won't count. Sync before reconnecting to include
your mobile history in that exclusion.
To uninstall, disconnect first, then remove the add-on through Tools → Add-ons.
This won't remove rewards you've already received in TaskHero.
Privacy
Your cards, answers, and deck names stay in Anki. No ads. TaskHero records points
earned and rewarded habit completions to understand integration usage.
See the privacy policy for details and local data-removal instructions.
Need help?
If rewards aren't arriving, open the add-on settings and check your connection.
After fixing a connection or habit-selection problem, click Retry failed.
If the saved token is unavailable, the add-on may require Disconnect before
reconnecting, so another account cannot receive your old queued rewards.
Email support@taskheroics.com for help.
