I then tapped on export (and the file was recognized as “Packaged Anki Deck” and then tapped-and-held on the Anki icon. But after it had downloaded, I tapped on the file, a data file. I downloaded the Anki file from my website using Safari on my iPhone, as before. I have a download button on the students’ dashboard for the Anki files, so if they can simply Open in Anki then that would make things much easier for them. Where is this option in the AnkiMobile app?

On Windows there is a General option for each deck to switch off auto play. The play buttons appear correctly, but ALL the audio on the card plays one after the other immediately when it is opened. Secondly, there doesn’t seem to be a way to stop auto play of the audio in AnkiMobile. So what am I doing wrong in the code/CSS below? There are a couple of other related errors I’ve discovered.įirstly, most of the linked or button text is invisible in dark mode, but is also not visible on the Windows version of Anki, and even when I force dark mode off in the app. Maybe this is an error in IOS (currently 14.1) or maybe I have to somehow identify or activate Anki as a valid app for apkg files…? I don’t know why the Export/Open In function doesn’t work at all. Is this something you can fix, or is there a workaround? The file isn’t invalid or corrupt, the permission to access it has been denied by the server.

So the issue is really that the app doesn’t have a mechanism to log in to a protected folder and so the error message is misleading. The file did download successfully (like in Safari)… but I got strange numbers like this: I created a new link to a public folder on my server and started the download using the unrestricted weblink. So they obviously are NOT corrupt or invalid.įor now, can you think of why I get the invalid/corrupt error? Do I need to re-export the decks from the Windows version, or is there another way to import a deck into AnkiMobile directly (without having to sync from the desktop computer)?Īny ideas or suggestions? Or is this an obscure bug in Anki, and we have to wait for a new release sometime in the future…? The files open without error directly in the Windows version of Anki. I’m not sure how I did it before, because it did work - maybe with a previous version of the app, I can’t remember. I’ve also tried to download the file first and then select Export: “Open in Anki”, but nothing happens when I do this (after having fully downloaded the file). And THEN I go back to Anki and download the file. Now, it may be because the link is to a protected folder. But now I’m getting the error: “File invalid or corrupt”. The only way that seems to be available is to provide a download link. I provide Anki decks to my students to download to their AnkiMobile app. I have a curious error and I’ve been going round in circles trying to resolve it.
