Description
When a peer is studying nearby, a sleek vertical indicator light in your top toolbar will glow green. Click the light to see who is online and what subject they are tackling.
Features:
- Ambient Motivation: Feel less alone during long review sessions by seeing others grinding through their decks on your campus, cafe, or home network.
- Safety First: No custom text inputs. You simply choose from a list of fun preset identities (e.g., "Flashcard Fanatic" studying "Computer Science").
- Zero Setup: No accounts, logins, or central servers required. The add-on uses secure local network broadcasting to find peers directly over your current Wi-Fi connection.
How to Use:
- Install the add-on and restart Anki.
- On startup, pick your preset identity and subject.
- Look for the new indicator strip in your top toolbar. If it is grey, you are alone. If it glows green, someone nearby is studying!
Note: You can change your identity at any time by clicking Tools > Streetpass:
