From the official Anki FAQ: "AnkiApp and Anki Pro were developed by separate groups of people, and they are not related to the rest of the Anki ecosystem. They were released years after Anki was already established in the marketplace, and we suspect the names were deliberately chosen to take advantage of the brand recognition we have built up. Using Anki in the name implies that they will function with the other Anki clients, which they do not." The Anki ecosystem is made up of Anki,
AnkiMobile,
AnkiDroid, and AnkiWeb, all of which are linked from our official website: https://apps.ankiweb.net

Comments and Reviews
After several years, it begins to be updated. It has improved but can still improve more.
The official apps for Anki are AnkiDroid (Android) and Anki Mobile (iOS). Despite its name, this app is not related to Anki, and incapable of syncing with it.
Anki knockoffs
AnkiApp and Anki Pro were developed by separate groups of people, and they are not related to the rest of the Anki ecosystem. They were released years after Anki was already established in the marketplace, and we suspect the names were deliberately chosen to take advantage of the brand recognition we have built up. Using Anki in the name implies that they will function with the other Anki clients, which they do not.
If you have downloaded AnkiApp or Anki Pro in error, please consider leaving a review on the app store alerting people to the fact that they are not the real Anki.
If you purchased a subscription from them, you could try contacting Apple to see if they can refund your money.

Importing from AnkiApp/Anki Pro
Abdo has kindly published an add-on to help you import your AnkiApp and Anki Pro decks into Anki.

AnkiApp is a low quality, expensive substitute for the original, open source, and feature-rich Anki.
AnkiApp is not part of the official Anki ecosystem of apps and services.
By copying its name, the AnkiApp took advantage of the brand recognition Anki had built up.
AnkiApp aggressively markets their app and they never tell potential customers about the difference between the original Anki and AnkiApp. AnkiApp never responded to my request for a refund.
The original Anki integrates with, and allows imports from, many other flashcard and related programs.
AnkiApp does not integrate with or allow imports from most related programs. The company that sells AnkiApp is called Admium. Although Admium is registered as a corporation in Deleware, it was registered in the State of Florida as a Foreign Profit Corporation.
The Admium website is admium\[dot\]net - there is one page with this content: "Admium Corp."
If you search Google or Bing for the following, you can read more. Some of the info here is based on what I learned on the Anki subreddit, the Medium article, and the Polar article.
"AnkiApp is Ripping Off Anki" (Polar)
"Anki vs Ankiapp" (Reddit)
"Why you should not use AnkiApp!" (Medium)
AnkiApp supports the import of Quizlet and Cram.com decks and also the migration of Anki2 decks from AnkiWeb.
