Anki is a program which makes remembering things easy. Because it's a lot more efficient than traditional study methods, you can either greatly decrease your time spent studying, or greatly increase the amount you learn.
Anyone who needs to remember things in their daily life can benefit from Anki. Since it is content-agnostic and supports images, audio, videos and scientific markup (via LaTeX), the possibilities are endless.
For example:
"The single biggest change that Anki brings about is that it means memory is no longer a haphazard event, to be left to chance. Rather, it guarantees I will remember something, with minimal effort. That is, Anki makes memory a choice."
"I've been using Anki for two years now, and I just wanted to thank you personally for contributing to the single most obvious improvement in my quality of life. I'm not being hyperbolic: consistent use of Anki has opened more doors for me intellectually than I could have imagined two years ago. And being a poor student, I'll be forever grateful that you've provided this software open-source and free of charge."
If you're on an M1/M2/M3 Mac, pick the Apple Silicon version for better performance/battery life. Older machines will need to use the Intel version. Two variants of the Intel version are available: Qt5 vs Qt6.
Anki's source is available on GitHub. There are instructions for building in the docs/ folder. If you encounter problems with the build system please let us know, but please note the expectation is that you are able to dig into basic issues by yourself. If you have no programming experience, please use the packaged version instead.
If you encounter bugs while running Anki from source, please check to see if you can reproduce them in the packaged version, as the Qt version or other libraries on your system can be the cause of some problems.
My team and I have ran into a problem in our growing Field Maps system. Everything worked well until very suddenly when we tried to download offline areas, every field workers' devices failed to download th offline area. We aren't sure what changed, has anyone else had this problem? Please let me know what solution you all might have.
I just want to add that my team is experiencing the same issue. We have multiple field maps deployed that we have, up until today, been able to create offline areas with no problem. As of today, we have not been able to successfully download offline areas from any of the maps we have tried. We also created test maps with no layers, and offline areas failed as well.
Also, you say you changed the basemap as well. I am only able to create/download a fairly small area of my data if I have a 'normal' basemap included unless I take the Level of Detail down to the world level. Which will not do in most cases. So, I create the offline areas with a small vector basemap (since AGOL won't let you create a map without a basemap) and tell it to use the basemap I have side loaded onto the app device when generating the offline area(s).
Try to create offline areas in Field Maps web. If there is a problem with your basemap then it would fail. I have come across a situation where it fails if the CS of the basemap is not exactly the same as your feature layer. You might have published the feature layer with default web mercator CS and later you wanted to use a basemap in local CS.
We've also just experienced an organization wide field maps collapse...When we do get an area to download, our crews ipads now say "unable to submit - token required" or "unable to submit - internet connection appears to be lost". Anyone else seen those errors?
While these forums are great for user feedback and some Q&A, it sounds like this could be a wider issue. I suggest someone submit a ticket to Esri Support. They'll want more details, and may want to add your experience to others that are calling in about this thing. Perhaps there was an OS update or even an Esri update that is causing this.
