What format should my spreadsheet be when importing?

Flashcards.io needs your spreadsheet to be a two column spreadsheet with the terms being the first column and the second column being your definitions.

How can I collaborate on flashcards with my classmates?

Select the deck you would like to collaborate on and then click the add person icon at the top right corner. Copy and send the invite link to your classmates and start creating flashcards faster together!

Will my flashcards be available offline?

Yes!

How do I sync multiple devices?

Sign into your account on each device by clicking the “Log In” button from on your account page. You’re data will then be automatically synced across devices when they are online.

I love Anki, does Flashcards.io have spaced repetition?

Yes! Your personalized ”Daily Deck” is based on spaced repetition.

How do I create a fill in the blank card?

Create a card where the term is used within the definition and on the other side only enter the term. While reviewing, the definition will have the term blanked out. Example:

Term: abdominal muscles

Definition: abdominal muscles are a flat sheet of muscles on the front of the abdomen, between the ribcage and the pelvis
