What were your issues with the standard Anki app? It might not be the prettiest app, but it is effective.

Every time I open the Anki app I really don't know where to start or how to use it. There are just too many options distracting me.

It would be easier if the features were reduced & the app kept minimal. Think the apple notes app & Google keep, but for space repetition. Anki feels like Microsoft Word.

Also a sample collection of decks with something to start learning right away (just to understand how the app works) would help me alot. Maybe a language, math theorems, APL verbs etc.

Which app are you using? AnkiDroid seems fairly straightforward, at least for basic usage. There are a lot of confusing options buried in settings, but the fundamentals aren't that hard to figure out. Maybe it just needs a better on-boarding experience, like a link to the download pages for a few featured decks?
