I've been using Anki on and off for a while but I don't feel I can get much out of it without the ability to review my decks when I'm on the go.

Unfortunately AnkiWeb isn't a cure for my cheapskate problem, because the signal is so bad on my commute!

Both AnkiDroid and the iOS Anki support syncing, so then all reviews can place on the device without using any data and then synced later in the day.

I do this myself and it works well: most of my Anki reviews each day take place using my phone when travelling without any signal on the metro.

True but I resent having to pay £17.49 to cover the development costs for the other platforms. (I think the android version was developed by someone else which is why its free)

Did you try their mobile apps? I suppose after syncing, the decks would be stored locally on the mobile.

I used the android app before but since I broke that phone, I'm using an iPhone and just can't bring myself to pay that much.
