Snap or upload the chapter
Take photos of the book pages with your phone or upload a PDF. You can add several photos at once, and the AI reads them directly — no typing anything out.
AI writes the questions
In seconds you get 8 to 20 multiple-choice questions with answer options and explanations, drawn only from your chapter. Ask for more if the material supports it.
Practice and retry your misses
Answer, read the explanations, then use retry-missed mode to drill exactly what you got wrong. Studying with others? Share the quiz with a link.

Paper books
Photograph each page with your phone and upload them all in one go. The AI reads printed text directly, so nothing needs to be typed out.

Scanned chapters
Got a scanned handout of the chapter? Upload the images or the scanned PDF and turn it into practice questions right away.

Certification guides, regulations, dense reference material: quiz yourself chapter by chapter and find out what actually stuck.
Why CanQuiz for studying from a book
AI that reads your photos
Photograph the page and the AI understands it. Printed text reads very well, and handwriting works too as long as it's legible.
Multiple pages in one pass
Upload every photo from the chapter at once and get a single quiz that covers the whole topic — no page-by-page busywork.
Your book's language
Spanish, English, and more: questions come out in the language of the material you upload, with nothing to configure.
Share with your study group
Quizzes are private by default. When you want to, share them by link with classmates or your study group.
Frequently asked questions
Does it work with physical books or only digital ones?
Both. For a paper book, photograph the pages and upload the photos; for a digital one, upload the chapter PDF or paste the text. The AI reads photos directly.
Can I upload an entire book?
It works best chapter by chapter — a focused topic gives the AI sharper questions. Each generation produces around 8 to 20 questions and you can ask for more; for a full book, just create one quiz per chapter.
How well does it read photos of pages?
Printed text reads very well as long as the photo is in focus and reasonably lit. Legible handwriting works too, though very messy handwriting can trip it up.
Can I use a copyrighted book?
For personal study, yes. The questions come from the material you're studying, and quizzes stay private by default; if you decide to publish a quiz, make sure you have the right to share that content.
What languages does it support?
Spanish, English, and more. The AI responds in the language of your material: upload a chapter in French and the questions come out in French.
Can I edit the questions the AI generates?
Yes. You can rewrite questions, change the answer options and explanations, delete questions, or add your own before practicing or sharing.
Is it free?
Yes. There's a free plan with free AI generations every month, and if you generate a lot you can connect your own AI key and keep creating quizzes.
Stop rereading. Start answering.
Photograph the pages or upload the PDF, and in a couple of minutes you'll be testing yourself on the chapter instead of skimming it again. Free to start.
