How to get your cards out of Gizmo

Gizmo doesn't have an export option yet. Its help centre says exporting isn't available and is planned for a future update. Until then, the cards have to be copied out by hand:

  1. Open the deck in Gizmo on a computer. On each card, tap the three dots and choose Edit to see the full front and back text.
  2. Copy the front into column A of a Google Sheet or Excel file and the back into column B, one card per row.
  3. Select both columns, copy, paste them into the box above, and click Convert & Download .apkg.

Checked against Gizmo's help centre on 1 October 2026. If Gizmo adds an export, we'll update these steps.

What carries over

  • Card text cards (Gizmo's default type) become Basic Anki cards.
  • True/False cards work too: the statement on the front, True or False on the back.
  • Multiple choice, Matching and Ordering cards have no Anki equivalent. Copy the question and the correct answer as a normal card.
  • Images can't be copied as text, so cards with photos lose them.
  • Highlights and study progress stay in Gizmo. Anki treats every card as new.

Troubleshooting

  • Math shows as raw LaTeX in Anki: Anki renders formulas written as \( x^2 \). Swap any dollar signs for that before converting.
  • A card with line breaks split into several cards: paste from a spreadsheet, where each card's back sits in one cell, rather than straight from Gizmo.
  • Some rows were skipped: those rows only had a front. Add the back in your spreadsheet and convert again.
  • Want fill-in-the-blank cards? Wrap the hidden word in double curly braces, like {{mitochondria}}, and the row becomes a cloze card.

Gizmo to Anki Converter FAQs

Can you export flashcards from Gizmo?

Not yet. Gizmo's help centre says exporting cards and decks isn't available and is planned for a future update. For now you copy the front and back of each card into a spreadsheet and convert that.

Is this Gizmo to Anki converter free?

Yes. It's free with no signup and no watermark, up to 2,000 cards per conversion.

Will my Gizmo images transfer to Anki?

No. Only text can be copied out of Gizmo, so images on the front of a card won't come across.

How do I import the .apkg file into Anki?

Open Anki, click File then Import, and choose the downloaded file. On AnkiDroid or AnkiMobile, open the file from your downloads.

What if my Gizmo deck came from a PDF or my notes?

Then you can skip the copying. Upload the same PDF or notes to StudyCards AI and it writes the cards and exports them straight to Anki.

Have the original PDF or lecture slides?

Converting copies over the cards you already have. StudyCards AI reads the source material and writes a fuller deck, then exports it to Anki in one click.
