The preferred method of contributing to the documentation is to fork the `ankidroiddocs` project on github, and send a pull request with your additions in the usual way. However, if you don't know how to use github, you can simply download the "manual.asc" file and send it to a project member or the Google Group.

To create a translation of the manual, please make a copy of "manual.asc" and add "-LANUGAGE\_CODE" ([list of ISO\_639-1 language codes](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes)). For example for Italian submit a translated file called "manual-it.asc" based on the original source file.

Thank you for using AnkiDroid, the Android client for the popular
http://ankisrs.net/[Anki] spaced repetition system.

Anki is spaced repetition technique which is simple but highly effective. It helps you memorize things by automatically repeating them across increasing intervals based on your responses with no need for you to keep track of what to study or when to study it. You create notes (or download shared decks) with content you need to memorize, and the scheduler will make sure you see the content when you need to.

AnkiDroid is intended to be used in conjunction with Anki on your computer. While it is possible to function without it,
some tasks are either only possible with, or a lot more efficient with Anki Desktop. Furthermore, it is *strongly recommended* to at least read https://docs.ankiweb.net/getting-started.html#key-concepts["Key Concepts"] section of the main Anki manual to understand the terminology used here.

You can import Anki files (with .apkg file format) directly into AnkiDroid. Other file formats cannot be imported directly into AnkiDroid, however
flashcards from most other applications can be imported into Anki Desktop on your computer, which can then be <<AnkiDesktop,added into AnkiDroid in the usual way>>.

As in Anki Desktop, AnkiDroid distinguishes between https://docs.ankiweb.net/exporting.html#exporting[the two types of .apkg files]
("collection package" and "deck package") based on the filename. Collection packages have the name "collection.colpkg", and when imported will
completely _replace all contents_ in AnkiDroid. Any apkg file which is _*not*_ named something that ends in ".colpkg" will be treated as a deck package,
which will be _merged with any existing content_ when imported into to AnkiDroid.

You can import .apkg Anki collection files into AnkiDroid either by opening them using the standard Android system, or by manually
importing them from within AnkiDroid:
