Photograph your notes, get a quiz

No retyping and no separate OCR step. Take a picture of a page of handwritten notes with your phone, upload it, and get practice questions written from what is on the page.

No credit card. Free plan available forever.

How it works

  1. Take the photo

    PNG, JPG/JPEG or WebP, up to 100 MB. Flat page, even light, whole page in frame — that is the whole technique.

  2. Generate questions

    Choose the count and difficulty. The model reads the image directly rather than converting it to text first, so layout and diagram labels stay in context.

  3. Practise and repeat

    Answer with explanations, keep the set, and retake it later to see whether it stuck.

Getting a usable photo

Most weak results from a photo trace back to the photo, not the model. Three things account for nearly all of it: the page is at an angle so the far edge is unreadable, the light is uneven so half the page is in shadow, or the shot is cropped and the missing part contained the point.

A page shot square-on in daylight, with all four corners visible, is reliably enough. If the notes span a spread, shoot each page separately — two clean images beat one wide one.

Diagrams work when their labels carry the meaning. A labelled cycle or a named structure produces good questions; an unlabelled sketch that only makes sense because you drew it does not.

What works well

  • Phone photos of handwritten lecture and revision notes
  • Printed pages photographed rather than scanned
  • Whiteboard shots, when the writing is legible in the image
  • Labelled diagrams, tables and annotated figures
  • Several pages uploaded as separate images into one material

Photo to quiz — questions people ask

Do I need to scan the page properly?

No. A phone photo taken square-on in reasonable light works. A scanner is more consistent but is not required.

What image formats are accepted?

PNG, JPG/JPEG and WebP, up to 100 MB per file. PDFs are also accepted if your scanning app produces those instead.

Can I upload several pages at once?

Yes — up to 10 files can be attached to one study material, so a chapter's worth of pages can be turned into a single question set.

Does it work for languages other than English?

Yes. The questions come back in the language on the page, and the interface itself supports eight languages.
