Every university student in the Western world has access to a Computer, and those who are poor usually have an Android Phone (with free AnkiDroid) and not a very expensive iPhone. If they can afford an iPhone they can afford the App

I think this "problem" is somewhat made up

Well, I don't want to sound patronizing, but the world is so much bigger than your notion of "Western world" where every student with iPhone has computer.

You are patronizing. Every student with an iPhone has access to a computer even if it isn't their own. If they are so poor that none of their facilities have one then they have a cheap Android.

This fictional person you describe also has access to the web and Anki on there.

Anki is not a very useful tool if you are not making or editing your own decks or a teacher is for you. This is an incredibly painful experience on mobile.

Well I have a friend who manages his entire self written 10.000 Card collection entirely on an Samsung Tab with AnkiDroid.

I would agree with you, but he doesn't seem to mind
