Knowt only imports 100 Quizlet cards. Here's why, and what to do about it.

Knowt's Quizlet importer caps at 100 cards per set. If your set is larger, the rest don't come across. QuickCards has no such cap. Install it, open your Quizlet set, and send the whole thing into Knowt, or into Anki, PDF, CSV, or a plain file.

Does this sound familiar?

You import a 300-card Quizlet set into Knowt. 100 cards come across. No error, no warning, no "partial import" flag. You find out the rest are missing when a word you expected never shows up in review.

QuickCards doesn't have that cap. It's a browser extension that runs in your own Quizlet tab, so it has access the same way Quizlet's own app does. Full set, regardless of size.

What's different

Where the two paths actually diverge. Both are free, and both need a Knowt account if you want cards to end up in Knowt.

Frequently asked questions

Why does Knowt only import 100 Quizlet cards?

It's a limitation of Knowt's current Quizlet importer, not of your set. The full card data is still in Quizlet. QuickCards gets it a different way, which is why there's no cap.

How can I import more than 100 cards from Quizlet to Knowt?

Install the QuickCards extension, open the Quizlet set, and use the widget that appears on the page to send it to Knowt. The full set lands in your Knowt account, any size.

Can I merge multiple Quizlet sets into one Knowt set?

Yes. Open each set in its own tab and QuickCards will offer to merge them into a single deck before export. Useful when a teacher splits a semester's vocab across weekly sets.

Is QuickCards free?

Free. Open-source (MIT licensed) on GitHub. No account needed.

Does QuickCards work with Anki too?

Yes. QuickCards exports .apkg files with FSRS retention and learning steps tuned to a deadline you pick. It also exports CSV, JSON, TXT, a print-ready flashcards PDF, and a vocab-list PDF.

Do I need a Quizlet login?

Only if the set itself is private. For public sets, QuickCards fetches the same data you'd see while signed out. It doesn't automate logins or touch anything behind your Quizlet account.

Is Knowt still worth using?

Yes. QuickCards is a better import path, not a replacement. Install it, get your full Quizlet sets into Knowt, then study inside Knowt as usual.

What's the catch?

None. QuickCards runs in your browser, so your cards never touch a server we control. Source is on GitHub if you want to inspect it or fork it.

One click from the Chrome Web Store. Source is on GitHub.
