Turn your own notes into an Anki deck for iOS
Skip the shared decks that do not match your course. Upload your slides, notes or textbook pages and get flashcards with spaced repetition, ready to study in your browser.
Build your own iOS deck instead of hunting for shared ones
Shared Anki decks for iOS are easy to find, but they rarely match what your course or documentation actually covers. DeckOwl turns your lecture slides, notes or book chapters into flashcards, so your Anki decks for iOS reflect the exact material you need to learn.
- Generate cards from the chapters you are assigned, not generic lists.
- Review in short daily sessions so spaced repetition can schedule each card.
- Edit any card before exporting so your Anki deck stays accurate.
- No credit card is needed to start on the free plan.
Start from your own material
Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes or photos of pages. Your deck reflects what you were actually taught.
Spaced repetition built in
Cards resurface at the intervals that help you remember them, so you spend less time rereading and more time recalling.
Export to Anki on Plus
Plus exports your flashcards for Anki, so you can keep reviewing on your iOS device with the app you already use.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a lecture PDF, a slide deck, a set of notes or a few photos of printed pages.
Review the generated cards
Check the questions and answers, then remove or edit any card that does not fit your course.
Study or export
Study in the browser on the free plan, or export to Anki on Plus and continue on your phone or tablet.
Start with one chapter or one framework at a time. You can upload a DOCX study guide, a PDF of SwiftUI lecture notes or photos of printed textbook pages, and the text is read from each file before cards are written.
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Plus at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month adds unlimited generations and exports to Anki, CSV, PDF and DOCX, and students get 40% off with a school email.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for learning iOS development?
Start with 20 to 40 cards covering one topic, such as SwiftUI state or Auto Layout. Add more after you can recall the first set consistently.
What is the best way to study iOS concepts with flashcards?
Write cards that ask you to explain a concept or predict what code does, not just define a term. Review them in short sessions every day, since spaced repetition works best with frequent practice.
Can I export my flashcards to Anki?
Yes, exporting to Anki is a Plus feature at $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. Students with a school email get 40% off.
Is there a free plan?
