Hi is is there anything that you can use for study android wear or pebble? 

I'mthinking for pebble you can have watch face that display different kanji and meaning ever few minutes

Last summer I looked a little into it, there isn't much. Nothing for Pebble and Apple, there was a port of Ankidroid for Android Wear that didn't seem too bad, although I think it's no longer supported, the last update it's from 8 months ago.
You need Ankidroid on a phone to sync with the watch, and the small screen estate means you can't use it effectively with big cards, but you have gesture support and full access to the Anki algorithm, so it's pretty decent for vocab or kanji cards.

I think it has the potential to be really useful in some circumstances, you can sneak a couple repetitions at work, when waiting at a traffic light or in a queue and so on, during the 8-9 hours of worktime one could finish all the reps for the day.
Last year in the end I didn't make the leap cause I was working at a job with really strict supervisors and the cheapest android smartwatch was still too expensive, but now that I'm in a more relaxed environment maybe I'll look into it again, thanks for reminding me of it!

My ideas is just a watch face that shows time, word in kanji, reading, and meaning. So it's sort of passive learning.
So if on android wear always on display is needed. Pebble is better but the hardware is very limited.

But ankidroid on android is good to though it needs active participation.

If you're just interested in times, flashcards would probably be better. On top of that, I generally see watches that have the same numbers as everyone else (1234...) so I don't think you'll have as much luck finding that in most areas, I just don't think it's the average way people tell time.

That being said, if you don't need digital, amazon has some fun looking kanji watches:http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=kanji+watch&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Akanji+watch

as well as some kanji clocks: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1...anji+clock

I understand what you're looking for, but I fear there's nothing like it. I saw once a pebble watchface that had similar features planned, but it was very early in the development and probably the developer had already given up.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think that Anki Wear had an always on option, you can check in this thread for more informations: https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/issues/3326

I don't think there is the sort of kanji watch being made anywhere?

This is for helping learning so with the amount of kanji or vocab available 1 minutes wil only be one kanji one hour will be only 60. Better if can pick certain number of vocab from any level N1 to N5.

Kanji watchface that only shows times might be good for fun only but not very good for learning.

Yeah, I think I have read the same things in pebble reddit. apparently there is lots of difficulty to implement that on pebble. Because of limited hardware support, no official japanese installed. You can install 3rd party language pack though. And the most important thing is pebble have very limited memory.

Thanks for the link. I think that can be implemented. In anki for pc you can set them to auto play. Maybe we can request for the feature to be implemented in android wear too. But too bad no developer anymore.

Working in conjunction with the phone is good if you want to keep synced but I would think it would be nice too if it can work in offline mode.  The smartwatch may only have one purpose, display time and play a sort of kanji screen saver of flashcard with kanji info. You can save batteries that way.

I'm clueless when it comes to wearables, but what about some kind of bot running on your pc that sends kanji and vocab as text messages...?  if it's not too resource intensive it seems something you could script fairly easily or find existing software to adapt.

That could work but you will be receiving so many message. Better use ankidroid on the phone or Android wear. Not gonna spams myself with hundreds of message per day

From my research this past few days I think pebble hardware are not able to do that. They even do not officially support japanese.

Maybe have. to go the android wear routes. Zenwatch seems the most future proof and cheaper than Huawei watch.

The ankiwear that is no longer developed, can we use it without being connected to the phone all the time? Maybe just once per day syncing.
Or is it not possible?

I can't remember for sure, I think I read that it doesn't need to be always connected. Anyway I suggest you to read the discussion I linked, all the information I have on the app I took them from there!

I read the discussions,  but cacan't find anything conclusive regarding that.  I got the impression that you have used the app so I asked.  Wellanyone is there anyonehere who had tried Anki wear?
