Turn your notes into picture flashcards you can print
Ready-made sheets rarely match your course. Upload your PDF, slides, notes or photos and get flashcards with spaced repetition, then study in the browser or export.
Why generate your own picture flashcards
Most free printable sets online are generic, so the pictures and terms rarely line up with your class. Generating printable flashcards with pictures from the exact pages you are studying keeps the content and the visuals matched to what will be on the test.
- Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text file or image and get flashcards from it.
- Study online on the free plan with 3 generations per month.
- Export PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV on Plus, at $99.90/year or $9.99/month.
- Students get 40% off with a school email.
Built from your material
Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages. Photos are read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition
Cards come back at the intervals where you are most likely to forget them, so review time goes where it helps.
Export when you need paper
Plus lets you export to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV, so you can print the cards or move them into another app.
How it works
Upload your source
Add a PDF, slide deck, document, text file or a photo of your textbook page.
Review the generated cards
Check the flashcards DeckOwl creates from the material and edit anything that needs fixing.
Study or export
Study in the browser on the free plan, or export a printable PDF on Plus.
The free plan lets you study the cards in your browser with 3 generations per month, with no credit card needed to start. If you want a file to print, PDF export is part of the Plus plan at $99.90/year or $9.99/month, along with unlimited generations.
Picture cards work best when each card tests one idea. Label a single structure or term per card, and let the image carry the detail that words alone would make hard to remember.

Frequently asked questions
How many picture flashcards should I make for a single chapter?
Make one card for each term, structure or label in the chapter rather than one crowded card per topic. Keep the number manageable so you can review it daily, and drop cards you already know well.
What makes a good picture flashcard for studying?
Put a single labeled image or diagram on the front and ask for one name, function or step. Avoid cards with several unrelated labels, because they are hard to answer and hard to review.
Can I download my flashcards as a PDF?
Yes, PDF export is included with the Plus plan, which costs $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study the cards in the browser but does not include exports.
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card, which includes 3 generations per month.
