Frequently Asked Questions
What is an Anki Remote?
Our anki remote is a one-handed remote designed to help students study faster and longer without burning out. Any experienced Anki user knows that the key success with Anki isn’t just about how many cards you can do - it’s about consistency. However, studying for more than 30 minutes at a time can quickly become uncomfortable, for a number of reasons:
Hunching over causes back pain.
Awkward hand positions can put strain on the hands and wrist
Being glued to your computer feels tedious and uncomfortable
It's these issues that often make people lose momentum while doing their cards. With that said, our Anki remote really takes the Anki experience up a notch. Just connect it to your laptop via Bluetooth, and you’re all set to study in your perfect comfort zone.
How do I set up my remote?
Scope Anki Remote is plug-and-play! Just turn it on, connect via Bluetooth, and you’re ready to go - no setup needed :)
Is It Worth It To Get An Anki Remote?
Definitely. Many of our customers first buy our remote because a friend can’t stop raving about it. Once they start using it, they quickly notice three key benefits:
1. Comfort improves focus: Discomfort from wrist strain or hand cramps often leads to unnecessary breaks, like grabbing your phone and losing momentum. The Anki Remote keeps your hand in a natural position, helping you study longer without distractions.
2. Starting feels easier: our remote makes studying more enjoyable. Many users find themselves actually looking forward to their Anki sessions, making it easier to dive in and avoid procrastination.
3. Smooth navigation: Like a TV remote simplifies channel surfing, the Anki Remote makes flipping through cards faster and more intuitive. It’s a small tool that makes studying feel effortless.
In short, the Anki Remote is a smart investment for anyone looking to enhance their study experience.
