Habitica is another example of integrating incremental features into a task management system, but it lacked a diversity of content when I tried it last year. I believe there is room to incorporate features from incremental games (like Cookie Clicker) into flashcard apps, although it is not as simple as it sounds.

Use the free AnkiWeb synchronization service to keep your cards in sync across multiple devices. It won't make your heart thump like FPS games do. Anki is a program which makes remembering things easy. However, these gamifications are not as fun as real games. (competition)Īnki also has a streak-based gamification, and it's somewhat successful, as seen here. However, memorization is by nature a repetitive and solitary task.ĭuolingo operates in this space, and their gamification model, I believe, is to motivate users to study by allowing them to display their streaks and levels to others. One problem I've seen is that most addictive things, including games, either offer a diversity and discovery of content (as seen in watching YouTube videos or playing incremental games (Cookie Clicker, Candy Box!, etc.)), or foster competition and demonstration of skills (as seen in games like chess or FPS).

Other great apps like Anki are RemNote, Memrise, Mochi and Quizlet.

The best Anki alternative is AnkiDroid, which is both free and Open Source.

And, in fact, you could switch almost all of my comparisons around (except for the poor UI/UX on Macs - that comparison was restricted to only the UI/UX) just by using different criteria in the objective comparisons. There are more than 100 alternatives to Anki for a variety of platforms, including Web-based, Android, iPhone, iPad and Android Tablet apps. My entire point was that, even if something is objectively better than something else, people may still want the something else due to reasons of taste and motivation. > People have different tastes and different motivations. > and different people have different subjective tastes. The fact that one performs better than another on a certain criteria is objective. The reasons a person may choose one option over another can be subjective. > these are subjective comparisons that you are making. In other words, you don't know the criteria I've used to rank one above the other in all my comparisons, you only know that it is something based on fact. I don't know if maybe English is your first language or not, but objective means "based on established fact". you keep using the word objective and i'm not sure you know what that word means.
