AnkiBlock is built for students, language learners, exam season, and anyone who already uses AnkiDroid but wants a stronger reason to stay consistent. Study first. Unlock later. AnkiBlock turns your distracting apps into a reward. Instead of opening social media, videos, games, or forums before studying, you complete your AnkiDroid cards first. Once your goal is reached, your apps unlock. Works with AnkiDroid AnkiBlock requires AnkiDroid. It does not replace AnkiDroid and does not include its own flashcard system.
