Add quiz questions with images from photos of your notes
Upload a photo of a textbook page, a slide or a diagram. DeckOwl reads the text in it and writes multiple-choice, true/false or open questions with explanations, so you can review the material in the browser.
Getting quiz questions with images from your own material
Teachers who want Gimkit images for a review game usually need pictures tied to each question. DeckOwl does not draw pictures or add image files to a quiz, so it works best as a source of text questions built from your material.
- Works from PDFs, DOCX and PPTX files, plain text notes and photos of pages
- Writes multiple-choice, true/false and short answer questions with explanations
- Study in the browser on the free plan with 3 generations per month
- Plus and Pro add exports for PDF, DOCX, Anki, CSV, QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML
Reads photos of pages
Images of printed pages, handwritten notes and slides are read with text recognition, so you do not need to retype anything first.
Questions with explanations
Each multiple-choice, true/false or short answer question includes an explanation of why the correct answer is right.
Export when you need it
Study in the browser on the free plan. Plus adds PDF and DOCX export, and Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for learning management systems.
How it works
Upload your material
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of your pages.
Choose question types
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the set from your own content.
Review and study
Go through the questions, read the explanations and use spaced repetition on the flashcards you need to repeat.
Upload a photo of a slide, a textbook page or a labeled diagram and the text in the image is read with text recognition. The questions and explanations come from that content, which keeps them matched to what your class actually covered.
If you need the questions in another format, the Plus plan exports to PDF and DOCX, and Pro exports QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML. Free accounts can study the same questions in the browser at no cost.

Frequently asked questions
How do I turn photos of Macbeth study notes into quiz questions?
Take a clear photo of each page so the text is readable, then upload the images to DeckOwl. Choose multiple choice or short answer, and review the explanations to check that they match your reading of the play.
How many questions should I make for a Macbeth test?
Start with 15 to 20 questions covering the main acts, then add more on the scenes your teacher emphasized. Focus on the characters, key quotes and turning points rather than memorizing every line.
Can DeckOwl add pictures to my questions?
DeckOwl reads text from images you upload, but it does not create picture files for questions. Questions and explanations are text, and the export formats are PDF, DOCX, Anki, CSV, QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on paid plans.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. You can start on the free plan with no credit card, which includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser. Students get 40 percent off Plus or Pro with a school email.
