What you get
Import Kindle and Play Books highlights
Turn book highlights into cards: Kindle through the Chrome extension, Google Play Books through the extension, an exported .docx or a shared Drive link. Choose highlights and a deck, as plain text or with AI.
Pause, retry and refresh imports
Follow a book import as it runs, stop it and continue later, and retry highlights that failed. Highlights past one batch go into the same deck with one tap, and a Drive link import can be refreshed for new ones.
Edit any card yourself
Every card in your decks opens in the same editor: change the word, its translation, pronunciation, examples and details by hand, then save. AI can redo the pronunciation, translate or write an example when you ask, but nothing needs it.
Good to know
- Bulk Kindle import needs the Chrome extension (single highlights can be shared from the Kindle app), and chapter names come through from Play Books only.
- Refreshing for new highlights works for Google Play Books imports added by a Drive link; Kindle highlights reach Vocards through the Chrome extension.
FAQ
Google Play Books exports as .docx. You can also paste a Google Docs share link. For Kindle, use the browser extension to import directly from Kindle.
