Seconds instead of hours
A deck for a chapter is generated in well under a minute, which is the difference between using spaced repetition and only intending to.
Textbook chapters, lecture slides, scanned handouts — upload the file and the cards are written for you.
Making flashcards by hand is the single biggest reason students abandon spaced repetition. The method works; the data entry is what kills it. A chapter that takes forty minutes to read takes two hours to turn into cards.
ExamSaver reads the PDF and writes the deck. It pulls out the definitions, terms, relationships, and facts worth remembering and puts them on cards, front and back, ready to review. Scanned pages and photographs work too — text in images is read with OCR.
From there the cards go into a spaced-repetition schedule. Rate each card as you review it and the algorithm decides when you see it next, so difficult cards come back quickly and easy ones stop taking up your time.

OCR reads photographed textbook pages and handwritten notes, so you do not need a clean digital source.
The same upload can also produce multiple-choice quizzes, fill-in-the-blank practice, and a summary.
Cards are scheduled, not just stored, so review time goes where it is actually needed.
Decks are saved per document and per topic and sync between the web app and your phone.
Drag it in on the web app or pick it from your phone.
The document is read and a deck is written from it.
Say how well you knew each card; that drives the schedule.
The app tracks what needs reviewing and when.
Images and photos of pages, plain text pasted in, and voice recordings, which are transcribed before generation.
Yes. Text in images is extracted with OCR. Very messy handwriting will produce weaker results than clean print.
Yes. Generated decks are a starting point and you can adjust them.
Long documents work; extremely large ones are processed in sections. Uploading a chapter at a time usually gives tighter, more useful decks than a whole book at once.
Upload a chapter, a set of notes, or a past paper and see what comes back. It's free to start.
