What anki desperately needs (to the point years ago I explored this), is out of app nudges. I know I know, lots of folks dont like nagware, but I've found that for recreational things sometimes life happens and I just forget to go back to certain decks. If it's not tied to a goal I never get back to it.

At least on Android, it definitely has this.

Settings > AnkiDroid > Notify when (X number of cards due, etc.)

The IOS app also has the ability to set a notification at a certain time.

Building my own Anki, but focused on language learning for couples, so you'll get nudges. Both from the app, and from your partner :)
