Recreates the Memrise learning experience in Anki with typing, multiple-choice and tapping questions, on-screen keyboard, hints, spelling diffs, auto-generated choices, themes and LaTeX support.
Encrypts and conceals deck links and requires a password to access shared Anki decks, enabling secure, controlled distribution.
Prompts for a password on startup to protect Anki data, closing the application if the password is incorrect; the default password is pw and can be changed in the code.
Automatically fills Anki note fields using multiple LLM providers, with customizable prompts, batch processing, selective retries, and encrypted backups.
Allows connecting to AnkiWeb over networks using untrusted custom SSL certificates, warning that network administrators could access encrypted data.
Automatically syncs daily studied card counts and learned time to a TickTick habit and timer, with configurable habit name, target, and units.
An add-on for encrypting data stored in Anki Fields to help secure Cards intended for memorizing passwords and other private information.
Select the Field in Anki Editor to put encrypted data into and click the Encrypt button
Enter the password into the appeared window and click Ok
The hash for the password will be added to the Card's Field
The add-on is only needed for the initial encryption of the data, and is not used during reviews, allowing the encrypted flashcards to be studied on the mobile Anki apps as well. For making typing Cards that autocheck encrypted answers, the complementary template can be used. Alternatively, to make any other template that uses stock Anki typing compatible with the answers generated by the add-on, the following JS script can be added to the back of the Cards.
A toolkit for securely learning passwords with Anki, without exposing them to anyone accessing the flashcards. The toolkit includes an add-on for inserting encrypted data into Anki Cards, and a JS script to check the correctness of typed answers. The script can be used with stock Anki typing Cards or with any Cards that use the stock typing method. There is also a dedicated Card Template (downloaded from AnkiWeb, or imported from the repository .apkg file), which comes with additional features, such as concealing answers typed during reviews and adding hints shown while hovering a cursor, but otherwise remains minimalistic and lightweight, to be customisable similarly to stock Anki Note Types:
Temporarily revealing the hint and the typed answer on cursor hover:
The passwords are encrypted using the SHA-256 algorithm. It is reasonably secure, but (especially if passwords themselves are short, common, or otherwise weak) is not 100% invulnerable. It is probably a good idea to only use this method for learning passwords to forums, web services, and other accounts that do not have sensitive information attached, but not for things like bank credentials or marketplaces with saved credit card data.
Because the passwords are not explicitly saved anywhere, the Cards can only show whether the answer typed during the reviews is correct or not. By design, they cannot detail specific errors in submitted answers, as regular Anki typing Cards do, or otherwise remind you what the correct answer is. To make sure nothing essential will be lost, if a password is forgotten, it should be preserved with other methods outside Anki or be easily resettable. Setting the Leech action to Tag Only and all review intervals to the lowest values in the password Deck options will also help by keeping the retention as high as possible.

The Encrypt button does not work from the Editor window used for creating new cards — only from the Editor for browsing existing Cards.
