Turn a Word document into flashcards

Notes you typed during the semester are a good start, but rereading them is not revision. Upload the Word document and Memo turns it into flashcards, so your own notes become something that tests you.

The real app, with a sample lecture. Yours shows your own material.

How it works

  1. Choose Upload a document in Memo and pick the .docx file. Notes you wrote yourself work as well as documents from your teacher.
  2. Memo reads the whole document, headings included, and uses its structure to decide what belongs together.
  3. Open the Flashcards tab on the note and Memo writes a deck on the concepts, definitions and facts that matter most.
  4. Go through the deck, mark each card, and repeat the rounds until every card is known.

What you get

  • A deck of question-and-answer cards covering the key concepts
  • Cards you flip and grade as known or not yet known
  • The cards you missed come back in the next round until you know them
  • Decks you can print and take with you

Tips for the best result

  • Clear headings in the document help Memo group the cards by topic.
  • Upload a document per topic rather than one file for the whole semester.

What you can upload

Word documents (.docx), and plain text, Markdown, RTF and HTML files.

Questions

Does it work with Google Docs?

Yes. In Google Docs choose File → Download → Microsoft Word (.docx) or PDF, then upload that file.

Can I upload my own notes?

Yes. Uploading notes you typed during the semester is one of the quickest ways to get flashcards and a quiz for revision.

Can I study the flashcards on my phone?

Yes. Memo works in any phone browser, so you can go through a deck on the bus.
