KAnki v1.1.2 - Universal Flashcard App for Kindle

KAnki Release Notes v1.1.2

The main goal of this release was to make latest releases after v1.0.0 available for legacy users and info about KAnki deck creation using Üben.
( idk what to call 5.6.1.1 users so im calling them legacy users )
Thanks a lot to Penguin, Kashortie, and everyone else who helped with testing, debugging, and making this possible.

Note : If you have an older kindle ( 5.6.1.1 or 5.12.2.2 ) download the zip with -legacy in its name.

✨ New Update: Üben + KAnki Workflow

You can now use Üben as a companion tool to manage your decks more easily.
Since Kindle itself cannot process .apkg files directly, the workflow is:

1. Find a deck on Anki (e.g., shared decks online).
2. Import the .apkg into Üben.
3. Edit, add, or update cards using Üben’s modern UI.
4. Export from Üben → generates a kanki_config.js.
5. Transfer kanki_config.js to your Kindle (replace your existing file).
6. Launch KAnki on your Kindle with the new deck.

Advantage of this approach:

• You get a much better UI for editing and creating decks for KAnki on Üben.
• Once you’re done, you just export the ready-to-use configuration to your Kindle.
• No need to manually type out decks on Kindle anymore!
