Perhaps you have a page of French vocabulary to learn for school. In Minki, you can turn those words into cards and collect them in a deck. The same format works for questions about European capitals or a chapter you are revising.
A study session starts with a question. You try to remember the answer before revealing it, then tell Minki how it went. Again means you forgot, Good means you remembered, and Easy means the answer came without effort. Minki uses those ratings to plan the next review of each card. Difficult cards come back sooner; cards you remember well can have longer gaps between reviews.
You can write your own cards or choose a ready-made deck from the library. A deck can include images and audio alongside its text, which is useful when you want to recognise a country on a map or hear how a word sounds. If you already have cards in Anki, you can import their content into Minki too. Minki then plans their reviews from the answers you give here.
You can start in your browser without an account. Your collection stays on your device, and once you have downloaded a deck, you can study it offline, including its images and audio. That makes it possible to finish a few reviews on the way to school or use a tablet somewhere without Wi-Fi.
When you want to continue on another device, you can connect an account to sync your decks and learning progress. Separate learner profiles let each person keep their own collection and review schedule. If a parent and child use the same tablet, or siblings learn the same vocabulary, each can work through the cards at their own pace.
As you study, Minki keeps a record of your activity. You can see your streak, look back through the study calendar and check how many cards you have practised. A deck’s progress view also shows the planned intervals between reviews.
To try Minki, open the app and choose a deck, or make one for something you are learning now. The Help guides below explain how to get started and find cards in the library.
