Getting a Quizlet deck into Anki step by step
Most people who ask about how to get a Quizlet deck into Anki already have the terms and want them in a format they can review on their own schedule. Quizlet and Anki store cards differently, so the simplest route is to pull the text out and regenerate clean cards from it.
- Copy terms as plain text, one pair per line, so nothing gets lost in formatting.
- Split long decks into topic-sized sets before uploading to keep reviews manageable.
- Check each generated card against your notes before you export it to Anki.
- Keep your Anki import file in CSV or DOCX form so the fields map cleanly.
Upload what you have

Frequently asked questions
Can DeckOwl import a Quizlet deck directly?
No. DeckOwl works from files and images, so you copy the terms out of your deck as text or screenshots and upload them.
How many flashcards should I make for a deck?
Start with the terms you need to recall for your next exam, often 20 to 40 per topic. Splitting longer decks into smaller sets makes daily reviews easier to keep up with.
How do I study flashcards effectively?
Review a little every day rather than cramming, and rate each card honestly so spaced repetition can schedule it at the right time.
Do I need a paid plan to use Anki?
Yes, Anki export is included in Plus, which costs $39/year or $7.99/month. Students get 40% off with a school email, and no credit card is needed to start.
