Description

Keep Anki running in the background in your system tray. Minimizing or clicking X hides the main window while keeping your profile open, allowing integrations such as AnkiConnect to continue receiving cards and media. Click the tray icon to restore Anki. To quit, right-click the tray icon and select Sair do Anki (“Exit Anki”). Choose whether to hide Anki when minimizing, closing, or both. Beta version for Windows and Anki with Qt 6. AnkiConnect is required for integrations that depend on it. Compatibility with Yomitan, asbplayer, and Fushi.
