Maps the arrow keys so right, up and down show the answer and grade Good, Easy and Again, left undoes, and Shift+Down grades Hard.
Enables keyboard-driven Anki reviewing with hjkl answer keys, front-side grading, configurable shortcuts, hidden or disabled buttons, Pass-Fail mode, answer color coding, zoom controls, and last-grade display.
Lets you review Anki cards with a Bluetooth gamepad by mapping its buttons to actions like flip, grade, undo, and sync, all remappable in the config.
Displays up to four note fields in clean, customizable boxes after the answer is revealed, with side-by-side or 2×2 layouts, image zoom, and a show/hide hotkey.
Randomizes image-occlusion answer-box placement each review and draws an arrow to the target, supporting forward/reverse/typing modes, context labels, and single-card cycling.
Adds configurable extra keyboard shortcuts, such as hjkl, for rating review cards, optionally revealing the answer first or rating immediately, and adjusting 2/3 key behavior by button count.
Description
Review cards using just the ← and → arrow keys in a straightforward sequence.
In short:
←shows previous Q, A, Q, A, ...→shows next Q, A, Q, A, ...
Detailed:
- → Right Arrow
- When Question showing: Show the current card’s Answer.
- When Answer showing: Grade the current card “Good” and show the next card’s Question.
- ← Left Arrow
- When Question showing: Undo the previous card’s grade¹ and show its Answer.
- When Answer showing: Return to the current card’s Question.
¹ Going back to the previous card uses Anki's built-in Undo, reversing its grade and the corresponding scheduling record.
Important: Undo affects the latest undoable action. Avoid making unrelated changes between grading a card and navigating back.
Usage
Install the add-on, restart Anki, and use the arrow keys during review. No configuration required.
Compatibility
Tested with Anki 26.09.3.
This add-on uses internal reviewer methods, so compatibility with earlier Anki versions is not guaranteed.
