Turn your notes into multiple choice quizzes you can keep offline
Upload a PDF, slide deck, document or photo of a page. DeckOwl writes multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions with explanations, and you decide how to study them.
Why a custom quiz beats a generic download
Most students who search for a free multiple choice quiz maker want a practice set they can print or open without the internet. DeckOwl doesn't sell ready-made quiz files, but it builds one from the exact material you are studying, which is usually more useful than a generic bank.
- Upload your own PDF, slides, notes or page photos instead of searching for a generic file.
- Mix multiple choice, true/false and short answer questions in one quiz.
- Read an explanation for every answer, including the ones you got right.
- Export a PDF or DOCX copy on Plus if you need to study away from the browser.
Questions from your material
Multiple choice, true/false and open questions are built from the pages you upload, not from generic templates.
Explanations for every answer
Each question includes a short explanation, so a wrong answer teaches you why the right one is correct.
Export for offline use
Plus exports PDF and DOCX files you can save and study without the browser. The free plan does not include exports.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text file or a photo of your pages.
Choose a question type
Pick multiple choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the quiz.
Study or export
Work through the quiz in the browser, or export a PDF or DOCX copy on Plus.
Generated quizzes follow your lecture slides or textbook chapter, so the wrong answers are based on the mistakes your course actually teaches. Answer from memory first, then read the explanation before moving on.
Free accounts get 3 generations per month and study in the browser. Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month removes the generation limit and adds PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export. Pro at $14.99/month adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export for learning management systems.

Frequently asked questions
How many questions should I answer in one offline quiz session?
Twenty to thirty multiple choice questions is a practical range for one sitting. Stop when accuracy drops, because tired answers are less useful for memory than a short, focused set.
How often should I retest myself on the same quiz material?
Retest after a day, then after three or four days, then after a week. Questions you missed should come back sooner than the ones you answered correctly.
Can I download my quiz for offline study for free?
The free plan lets you generate quizzes and study them in the browser, but it does not include exports. PDF and DOCX downloads require Plus, which is $99.90/year or $9.99/month, with 40% off for students using a school email.
Does DeckOwl come with ready-made printable quizzes?
No. Every quiz is generated from the file you upload, so the questions match your course material. You can start without a credit card.
