Turn your physics notes into concept flashcards with AI
Upload your lecture slides, PDF readings or photos of textbook pages. Get flashcards and quizzes built from your own material, ready to review with spaced repetition.
Why build your own physics concept deck
Your instructor's slides already name the physics concepts you will be tested on, from Newton's laws to energy conservation. Turning those exact terms into cards keeps your review tied to the course rather than to a generic list.
- Cards use the terminology from your own course material
- Quiz questions include explanations for wrong and right answers
- Spaced repetition brings back the concepts you find hardest
- Photos of handwritten or printed pages are read with text recognition
Built from your material
Cards come from your own slides, notes and readings, so they match the terms and examples your instructor used.
Quizzes with explanations
Multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions include explanations so you learn why an answer is right.
Spaced repetition
Concepts you miss come back more often, and the ones you know fade into longer review intervals.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of a page. Images are read with text recognition.
Generate cards and quizzes
DeckOwl creates flashcards, quizzes and mind maps from the physics material you uploaded.
Study and review
Work through the deck in your browser, and let spaced repetition schedule the concepts that need more practice.
Prebuilt sets are written for someone else's syllabus. A deck made from your own lecture notes reflects the units you covered, the notation your professor used and the worked examples you actually saw in class.
Start with one lecture at a time. Review the definitions first, then move to the quiz questions that ask you to apply a law to a new situation.

Frequently asked questions
How many flashcards should I make for one physics unit?
Aim for one idea per card and cover one lecture topic at a time. A unit usually produces a few dozen cards, which is easier to review regularly than one very large deck.
Which physics concepts do beginners find hardest to remember?
Students often mix up velocity and acceleration, or forget that the two forces in Newton's third law act on different objects. Explanation-based quiz questions help more than recall alone for these ideas.
Can I use my own lecture slides?
Yes. You can upload PDF, DOCX and PPTX files, plain text notes, or photos of pages, and DeckOwl reads the text to build cards and quizzes.
Can I export my physics flashcards to Anki?
Yes, but export is a paid feature. Plus is $39/year or $7.99/month and includes PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export, while the Free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.
