What to do if you were sent a code

If your teacher sent you a quizlet join activity code, DeckOwl can't open that activity, because it only works with the material you upload. What it can do is turn the same lesson content into a study set you control.

  • Works from PDFs, slides, notes and photos of pages
  • Flashcards use spaced repetition to schedule reviews
  • Quizzes include explanations for every answer
  • No credit card needed to start on the free plan

Flashcards with spaced repetition

Cards are built from your material and scheduled so you review the ones you're about to forget.

Quizzes with explanations

Multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions, each with an explanation of the correct answer.

Mind maps from your notes

See how the main ideas in a lesson connect before a test or class discussion.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, or a photo of a page.

Generate your set

DeckOwl creates flashcards, quizzes or a mind map from what you uploaded.

Study and review

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

Upload the slides, handout or notes your class is using and DeckOwl reads text from PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, and from photos through text recognition. You get flashcards, quizzes and mind maps built from that material.

Frequently asked questions

How should I study a new biology unit before a quiz?

Start with the vocabulary and the structure of each organelle, then test yourself with short answer questions before you look at the notes again. Review cards you missed more often than the ones you got right.

How many flashcards should I make for one lesson?

Most single lessons work well with 15 to 30 cards, so each one covers a single fact or term. Make more cards from the parts you find hard rather than adding everything from the slides.

Can I join a class activity code with DeckOwl?

No, DeckOwl doesn't host join codes or class activities from other apps. It creates study materials from the files and notes you upload.

Can I export my flashcards?

Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV are included with Plus, which costs $99.90 per year or $9.99 per month. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.
