ANKINEER HUD: The High-Performance Dashboard
Turn Anki from a flashcard app into a Command Center.
🧐 THE PROBLEM
Default Anki is powerful, but ugly. It feels like software from 1999. It’s cluttered, the text is tiny, and it doesn’t inspire you to work.
The Solution: A complete visual overhaul engineered for flow state.
🚀 CORE FEATURES
- The Home Base 🏠 Exam Countdown Widget: Keep your target visible. Whether it’s a Board Exam, Language Test, or Trip Abroad, seeing the days remaining keeps you focused. “Next Session” Auto-Pilot: Stop scrolling and deciding. One click on the black “Next Session” button launches you instantly into the deck with the highest workload.
- The Deck Dashboard 📊
When you enter a deck, distractions disappear. You get an 8-point Data Grid:
⚡ Velocity (Speed): Tracks your average seconds per card. Are you flowing too fast? Getting stuck? Now you can measure it. 🚑 Critical Care (Leech Monitor): Automatically detects cards you fail repeatedly. Click the widget to instantly open the Browser with a filter applied to these specific cards so you can fix or suspend them. 🔥 Streak & Retention: Your study habits, visualized clearly. 3. 100% Configurable ⚙️ You decide what counts as a “Leech” (e.g., 4 lapses, 8 lapses). Fully compatible with Dark Mode and Light Mode. 👨⚕️ ABOUT THE AUTHOR I am a Resident in Anesthesiology. I built this because I was tired of staring at a boring screen for 4 hours a day.

The only thing I don’t like about this addon is no dark mode. Every day multiple time I want to uninstall it because of no dark mode but this addon is so awesome at what it does that I can’t uninstall it.
Can you please add dark mode, I hope its dark mode blande with the default anki dark mode? Thanks. Means a lot.

Clean, but a transparency mode (like the native Anki deck area) transparency would bake it super perfect! Also features like: selecting the default deck, adjusting the position to top/bottom/current position
thankyou for your work! Comment from author Thank you so much for the positive feedback! I’m really glad you like the clean design. 🚀 These are excellent feature requests: Transparency Mode: I love this idea. Blending the HUD with custom backgrounds would look amazing. Default Deck & Posit
