AnkiWeb

The easiest way to install Review Heatmap is through AnkiWeb.

Manual installation

Please click on the entry corresponding to your Anki version:

Anki 2.1

1. Make sure you have the latest version of Anki 2.1 installed. Earlier releases (e.g. found in various Linux distros) do not support .ankiaddon packages.
2. Download the latest .ankiaddon package from the releases tab (you might need to click on Assets below the description to reveal the download links)
3. From Anki's main window, head to Tools → Add-ons
4. Drag-and-drop the .ankiaddon package onto the add-ons list
5. Restart Anki

Video summary:

Anki 2.0

1. Go to Tools → Add-ons → Open add-ons folder
2. Find and delete the Review Heatmap.py file if it already exists.
3. See if you can find a review_heatmap folder. If so:
   1. If the folder contains a meta.json file, copy the file to a safe location. This will allow you to preserve your current settings.
   2. Proceed to delete the review_heatmap folder
4. Download and extract the latest Anki 2.0 add-on release from the releases tab (you might need to click on Assets below the description to reveal the download links)
5. Move the extracted Review Heatmap.py and review_heatmap into the add-ons folder
6. Optional: Place the meta.json file back into the directory if you created a copy beforehand.
7. Restart Anki
