E-ink study mode

Flashcards for your e-reader.

Learn languages, history and science in a web flashcard app tuned for black-and-white E Ink screens. Open a deck, switch to E-paper, and review at your own pace—without installing another app.

No account required for public or local decks.

Designed for slower screens

What E-paper mode changes

Black and white

Pure white surfaces, black text and strong borders remain legible without relying on subtle color differences.

No decorative motion

Animations, transitions, shadows and pulsing status effects are removed to reduce distracting full-screen refreshes.

Explicit study controls

Quiz answers wait for a visible Next button instead of changing automatically while the display catches up.

Links stay recognizable

Links are underlined and answer states use solid, dashed or double borders rather than color alone.

Ready-made study material

Learn a language, revisit history or explore science

Start with a public deck and save a local copy when you begin studying. These examples are useful for testing whether MazoCards works well in your e-reader's browser.

How MazoCards works

From source material to daily review

  1. 01
    Choose or create a deck

    Use a public deck, paste cards from ChatGPT or another AI, or import Markdown, CSV, TSV or JSON.

  2. 02
    Study with active recall

    Read the prompt, retrieve the answer from memory, reveal it and rate how well you knew it.

  3. 03
    Return for spaced review

    MazoCards schedules cards over time. Local decks stay on the device; optional sign-in adds cloud sync.

Compatibility

Will it work on my Kindle, Kobo or E Ink tablet?

MazoCards is a web app, so compatibility depends on the browser supplied by the device—not only on the display. It needs JavaScript and local storage. Browsers on Kindle, Kobo, BOOX and other E Ink devices vary by model and software version, so use the sample deck above as a quick test before creating a large collection.

A practical setup: create or edit large decks on a phone or computer, then open the same deck on your e-reader for focused review. Sign-in is optional and is only needed when you want cloud synchronization between devices.

Questions

E-reader flashcard FAQ

Do I need to install MazoCards?

No. Open it in the e-reader's browser. MazoCards does not require an app-store installation.

Can I use my own flashcards?

Yes. Import cards from an AI answer, Markdown table, CSV, TSV or JSON. You can also create and edit cards directly.

Does E-paper mode change my study data?

No. It only changes presentation and pacing. Your decks, answers and review schedule remain the same.

Does it work offline?

MazoCards supports local and offline study in compatible modern browsers after the app and deck have loaded. E-reader browser support varies, so test offline access on your device before relying on it.
