Study on iPhone, iPad, Android and the web: your decks and progress sync through one account, and reviews work offline.

You check the drafts and keep the ones you want. FSRS SPACED REPETITION Every card is scheduled with FSRS, the open-source algorithm that predicts when you are about to forget. After each answer, rate your recall (Again, Hard, Good or Easy) and see when the card comes back. Each day you review only what is due. IMPORT YOUR ANKI DECKS Save an .apkg file in Files, tap + in Cogni and choose “Import .apkg”. Cards, subdecks, cloze cards, images and audio come with it.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Cogni at 1.7K against Todak Time's 1. Todak Time's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Cogni sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Todak Time sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Todak Time holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cogni has 1.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Cogni ships an update weekly, Todak Time every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
