Why build your own physics deck

Most students who search for physics flashcards for Anki already have the material they need: lecture slides, a textbook chapter, and notes from class. What they want is a deck that matches the exact definitions, units and worked examples their instructor uses. Generating cards from your own files gives you that match.

  • Cards are generated from the files you upload, so terms and notation match your course.
  • Photos of handwritten notes are read with text recognition.
  • Spaced repetition schedules reviews so you spend time on cards you are about to forget.
  • Export to Anki, CSV, PDF, DOCX and more is available on Plus.
Example physics flashcards for Anki
State Newton's second law of motion.The net force on an object equals its mass times its acceleration, F = ma.
What is the SI unit of force?The newton (N), which equals 1 kg·m/s².
What does Ohm's law state?Voltage equals current times resistance, V = IR, for an ohmic conductor at constant temperature.
What is the speed of light in a vacuum?Exactly 299,792,458 m/s by definition, about 3.00 × 10^8 m/s.
What is the difference between a scalar and a vector quantity?A scalar has magnitude only, while a vector has both magnitude and direction.

Built from your material

Upload PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or photos of pages. Cards come from your own lectures and readings, not a generic deck.

Spaced repetition

Cards resurface at the right moment so formulas and definitions stay in memory between exams.

Anki export on Plus

Send your physics deck straight into Anki, or download it as CSV or PDF, with Plus.

How it works

Upload your physics notes

Add a lecture PDF, slide deck, Word file, or a photo of handwritten pages.

Review the generated cards

Check each question and answer against your course material and edit anything that needs fixing.

Study or export

Study in the browser on the free plan, or export to Anki on Plus.

Start with one chapter at a time. Upload the slides or notes, check the cards for accuracy, and remove anything too broad. Then study them with spaced repetition so the laws and formulas you learn this week are still there before the midterm.

When the chapter is done, export the set to Anki if you already use it for other courses. Anki's scheduler and your own card edits stay with the deck, so you can keep building on it through the semester.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make physics flashcards I can use in Anki?

Upload your lecture slides, notes or textbook pages, and DeckOwl generates flashcards from them. Review the cards, then export to Anki on the Plus plan.

How should I write physics flashcards so they stick?

Give each law, definition, unit or formula its own card. Break long derivations into smaller steps so each card can be answered in a few seconds.

Should I memorize physics formulas or understand them first?

Understand what each variable means and why the formula applies before drilling it. Once the reasoning is clear, flashcards help you recall the formula and its units quickly.

Is Anki export included in the free plan?

No. The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and study in the browser without exports. Anki export is on Plus, which is $99.90/year or $9.99/month.
