Flashcard Maker
Make your own flashcard decks for any subject, study them with flip and shuffle, test yourself and print cut-out cards — all saved on your device.
To make flashcards, put the term or question on the front and the answer on the back, then always try to answer before you flip — that effort of recall is what fixes it in memory. Keep three piles: new, still learning and known. Revise the still-learning cards every day and the known ones once a week.

Deck
Add a card
Front = term or question. Back = definition or answer.
Cards in this deck
Keyboard: Space flip · ← → move · K I know it · L still learning
Test yourself
Results update which cards you know. Wrong answers go back to “Still learning”.
Turn your notes into flashcards
Flashcards make you recall the answer instead of just re-reading it — one of the most effective ways to revise for school exams.
Create a deck
Give it a name, a subject and a colour — one deck per chapter works well.
Add cards fast
Type them one by one, or paste a whole list with Bulk import.
Study and sort
Flip each card and mark it “I know it” or “Still learning”.
Test and print
Take a typing or MCQ test, then print cut-out cards to carry with you.
Active recall
Try to answer before you flip. The effort of pulling the answer out of memory is what makes it stick — much more than reading notes again.
The box method
Keep three piles: new, still learning and known. Study “still learning” cards every day, and known cards once a week. Use Unknown only to focus on the cards that need work.
Writing good cards
- One fact or idea per card.
- Use your own words and short answers.
- Add an example: Kharif crop → e.g. paddy, maize.
Bulk import formats
One card per line. Any of these work:
Friction - force that opposes motionPressure: force per unit area"Area of circle","πr²" (CSV)
or two columns copied from a spreadsheet (tab).
Flashcard Maker — your questions
How do I make flashcards for studying?
Create a deck for one chapter, then add cards with the term or question on the front and a short answer on the back. Keep one fact per card, use your own words, and add an example where it helps — "Kharif crop → e.g. paddy, maize". Short cards are quicker to review and easier to remember.
Why are flashcards better than re-reading notes?
Because they force active recall. Re-reading feels productive but your eyes recognise the words without your memory doing any work. Trying to produce the answer before you flip is harder, and that difficulty is exactly what strengthens the memory. Testing yourself is one of the most effective revision methods there is.
How often should I review my flashcards?
Use the three-pile box method. Cards you have not seen are new, cards you got wrong are still learning, and cards you answered correctly are known. Go through still-learning cards every day and known cards about once a week. The Unknown only switch shows just the cards that still need work.
Can I add a lot of cards at once?
Yes. Bulk import takes one card per line in several formats: "Friction - force that opposes motion", "Pressure: force per unit area", a CSV pair in quotation marks, or two columns copied straight out of a spreadsheet. That makes it quick to turn an existing list of definitions into a deck.
Can I test myself instead of just flipping cards?
Yes. Test mode asks you to either type the answer or pick from multiple choices, and you can be shown the front and answer the back or the other way round. Choose 5, 10, 20 or all the cards. Wrong answers are moved back to Still learning automatically, so the deck keeps itself honest.
Can I print the flashcards to use away from a screen?
Yes. The print option lays the deck out as cut-out cards on paper so you can cut them up and carry them. Many students print a deck the week before an exam and keep it in a pocket for odd minutes on the bus or between periods.
Can I share a deck with my classmates?
Yes. Export a deck as a JSON file and send it to them; they import it here in one click. Everything is stored in your own browser on your own device, so sharing is always a deliberate export rather than anything automatic. Teachers can also project a deck in Classroom mode for oral revision.
