French flashcards with images, built from your own study material
Upload a vocab list, a textbook PDF or a photo of a page. DeckOwl turns the French terms into flashcards you can review with spaced repetition.
Making French flashcards with images from your course material
Learning French vocabulary sticks best when you see the word, recall it, and see it again after a gap. The slow part is typing out french flashcards with images by hand for every unit, which is why many students stop before the list is finished.
- Photos of printed French vocab pages are read with text recognition
- Each card can pair a French term with its English meaning or an example sentence
- Spaced repetition brings back the words you miss more often
- The free plan includes 3 generations per month, studied in the browser
Use your own French material
Upload PDFs, DOCX or PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of vocab pages. Text in images is read with text recognition.
Spaced repetition
Cards you find harder come back more often, so review time goes to the words you are most likely to forget.
Take cards anywhere
Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds export to Anki, PDF, DOCX and CSV.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a vocab list, a chapter PDF, slides or a photo of a printed page.
Review the cards
Check the French terms and English meanings, and delete any cards you do not need.
Study with spaced repetition
Review in the browser, or export to Anki or CSV on the Plus plan.
DeckOwl takes the material you already have and produces French flashcards from it. A photo of a printed vocab page works as well as a PDF, because text in images is read with text recognition. You then check each card, remove any you do not need, and study with spaced repetition.
If you want to take the cards outside the browser or move them into another app, the Plus plan at $39 per year or $7.99 per month adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. The free plan gives you 3 generations per month with browser study and no exports.

Frequently asked questions
How many French vocabulary flashcards should I study each day?
Most learners do better with a small daily batch, such as 10 to 20 new words, than with one long session. Spaced repetition then brings older cards back on a schedule so earlier words stay fresh.
Do French flashcards with pictures help you remember words?
Many learners find that a concrete image or a memorable sentence helps a word stick, especially for nouns and everyday objects. Combining the French term with its meaning and a sentence in context tends to work well for recall.
Can I export my French flashcards to Anki?
Yes, export to Anki is available on the Plus plan, which costs $39 per year or $7.99 per month. Plus also includes PDF, DOCX and CSV export.
Is there a free plan, and do I need a credit card?
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser, but it does not include exports. No credit card is needed to start.
