My proposal comprises two subprojects aimed at enhancing the app: the Instant Note Editor and enhancements to the Multimedia UI/UX. Cloze deletion are widely used in AnkiDroid but adding a Cloze-type note while we are reading a pdf/surfing internet takes multiple steps and time consuming. With the Instant Note Editor, users will be able to effortlessly add a Cloze-type note in half the time it currently takes without actually opening the app but a dialog. Here the user will be able to share selected text and instantly turn a word to cloze just by single taping it. AnkiDroid allows user to add media to the cards via multimedia attachment option but the steps required in the process are sometimes misleading and the code of the activity is tightly coupled making it difficult to maintain, this project will decouple the UI and its logic and improvise the UX. Finally resulting in a smooth media attachment process with much better UI/UX
