How to study Gimkit-style quizzes by yourself
A live class game is fun, but the questions you missed are the ones worth revisiting, and a solo round of Gimkit-style practice by yourself lets you retry them at your own pace.
- Work through questions in any order, without waiting for classmates.
- Retry missed questions the same day, then again a few days later.
- Read the explanation for every wrong answer before moving on.
- Keep a short set of questions for each session so focus stays high.
Practice at your own pace
Answer questions when you are ready, and read an explanation after every answer.
Built from your material
Questions come from your PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain notes, or photos of pages.
Export when you need it
The free plan studies in the browser. Plus and Pro add PDF, DOCX and Anki export, plus QTI and Moodle XML on Pro.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, text notes, or a photo of a page.
Choose question types
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer questions for your quiz.
Study on your own
Answer each question, read the explanation, and retry the ones you missed.
DeckOwl builds the quiz from your own material, so the questions match what your class actually covered. Each answer comes with an explanation that shows why the other options were wrong.
Browser study is included in the free plan, with 3 generations per month. Exports to PDF, DOCX and Anki need Plus.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I retry missed questions when studying alone?
Retry them the same day, then again after a few days, since spacing reviews out helps memory hold. Spaced repetition is built into DeckOwl flashcards on the Plus plan.
How many practice questions should I do in one solo session?
A short, focused set you can finish in one sitting usually works better than a long session where attention drops. Stop when your answers start to slip.
Is DeckOwl free to use by yourself?
The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, with no credit card needed to start. Exports are part of the paid plans.
Can I export a quiz to Moodle or QTI?
QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on the Pro plan at $14.99 per month. PDF, DOCX and Anki export are included with Plus at $39 per year or $7.99 per month.
