The Google Play app review process now regularly takes longer than a week
Thank you!!
E-waste is awful, as is cutting off old devices. We still backport security fixes to minSdk 21.
To Google's credit, post-21 is a much more pleasant experience and requires very little developer time. API desugaring[0] has worked perfectly, their compatibility classes[1] handle most of the common cases, and there's often very little to actually code[2].

Ownership of open source flashcard app Anki transferred to for-profit AnkiHub
Hey, could you put in an issue, especially regarding the pain points, but also including what 'seems unusual': https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android
It's mostly due to time/resource/technical constraints [some of our strings come from a shared backend], but we can do better here, especially if there's now a lot more community interest in the feature.
Pull requests welcome! Do feel free to get in touch on the issue/Discord.

Ask HN: What skills do you want to develop or improve in 2026?
I'm co-maintaining an open source Android app (primarily Kotlin, with Svelte &, Rust). I'd be happy to mentor in 2026 if you're interested.
Feel free to get in touch if you're interested:

Spaced Repetition Systems Have Gotten Way Better
Hi Lee,
We have 4 levels of integration:
* Apps which integrate with AnkiDroid via our Content Provider based API: https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/wiki/Third-Party-A.... This integrates with the Android permissions system, but you may also disable all integrations in the AnkiDroid Advanced Settings. AnkiConnect support (REST API) can also be enabled using a third party app.
* System Context Menu (ACTION_PROCESS_TEXT): Selecting text in most apps should provide an 'Anki Card' option in the context menu. This may need to be enabled in AnkiDroid: Settings - General. This may also need to be enabled on your system (system dependent: long press text in an app, expand the context menu to 'more items' and select 'Manage Apps'
* Android Share Menu: Select text and select 'Share', this enables use of our 'Instant Add' editor for cloze deletions, as well as our standard 'Add Note' screen
* Android Intents (should work with Tasker): https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/wiki/AnkiDroid-API...

Show HN: GoCard – A file-based spaced repetition system built in Go
Thanks! That is on my roadmap. I need to extract the notes form the database(sqlite)[0] from the zip file and process it along with the many media files it can contain. Right now this is a TUI and will have limited media capabilities.
