1. Use Cloze cards, not regular ones. Much more powerful. Also learn the shortcut for applying the Cloze label to a text selection.
2. Always create your own cards. I never download premade ones.
3. Break down things into small pieces. Cards should only be a sentence or two maximum.
4. Use audio, images, and animated gifs. Especially with languages, adding audio files to the cards is a game changer.
5. Create a deck for small random things and add them occasionally. For example, I can understand the alphabets in various foreign languages because I added the letters to Anki a few years ago.
6. Try adding stuff that you wouldn’t normally consider “necessary to memorize.” For example, a daily journal entry and notes from books you’ve read. Spaced Repetition guarantees that you will remember them over time. I try to do this with every book I read.
If you google around, I’m sure there is a solution to this problem somewhere.
Now that I think of it, I suppose you could export your decks then import them manually on a separate desktop /laptop. Not sure if that would work on mobile.
