Make a free quiz from your own notes, no download needed
Upload a PDF, slides or notes and get multiple-choice, true/false or short answer questions with explanations. The free plan studies right in your browser.
Why a browser-based quiz creator suits most students
Most people searching for a free quiz creator want something they can use the same day, and a browser tool beats installing a program that may not run on a school computer.
- No download, install or account setup needed to start
- Questions are based on your uploaded material, not a generic template
- Each answer includes an explanation you can review
- Students get 40% off Plus with a school email
Built from your material
Upload a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text or a photo of a page, and the quiz is written from what you actually need to learn.
Explanations for every answer
Each question comes with a short explanation, so a wrong answer teaches you why it was wrong.
Nothing to install
The quiz runs in your browser on any laptop or phone, so there is no software to download or update.
How it works
Upload your notes
Add a PDF, slides, a Word file or a photo of your page.
Pick a question type
Choose multiple-choice, true/false or short answer, then generate the quiz.
Take the quiz
Answer in the browser, read the explanations, and repeat the questions you missed.
A quiz built from your own lecture notes or textbook chapter tests what your class actually covers, which a generic printable quiz often does not. Working through questions with explanations also shows you which ideas still need review.
On the free plan you get 3 generations each month and can study everything in the browser. Exports to PDF, DOCX, Anki or CSV are included with Plus, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML come with Pro.

Frequently asked questions
How many quiz questions should I practice in one session?
Twenty to thirty questions in one sitting is a workable target for most subjects. Review the explanations for every miss before moving on, since those are where the learning happens.
How do I use practice quizzes to study biology more effectively?
Take a quiz before you reread the chapter, so you find the gaps first. Then retake only the questions you got wrong after a day or two to check that the ideas have stuck.
Is there a free quiz creator I can download?
DeckOwl runs in your browser, so there is nothing to download. The free plan covers quiz generation and studying, and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV exports are available on Plus.
What does the free plan include?
The free plan gives you 3 generations per month and lets you study in the browser. Exporting files is a paid feature, so it is not included on the free plan.
