## What is CardMakeTool?

CardMakeTool turns the words you read into Anki flashcards — without breaking your reading flow. See an unfamiliar word in Safari, Notes, Mail, or any other app? Select it, tap Share, and CardMakeTool builds a clean flashcard ready for AnkiMobile.

Requires AnkiMobile (sold separately on the App Store). CardMakeTool is a card-making companion — reviewing still happens in Anki, where it belongs.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Select text in any app and share it to CardMakeTool.
2. Tap or drag to pick your target word, and drag to set a custom example sentence.
3. Cards collect in a queue — open CardMakeTool and tap "Send All to AnkiMobile."

DEFINITIONS, YOUR WAY
- Online dictionaries — instant lookup for English words, free.
- Offline MDX dictionaries — import your own .mdx files for any language, usable without a connection.
- Write your own — type a custom definition when you want full control.

COLLECT NOW, SEND LATER
No need to stop reading when you hit a new word — select it, share it, and keep going. Cards wait in a queue, then send to AnkiMobile all at once, reliably even in large batches.

CARDMAKETOOL PRO
Upgrade for more:
- AI definitions — context-aware explanations in multiple languages.
- Pronunciation audio — natural text-to-speech for your cards.
- Unlimited offline MDX dictionaries.
- A generous monthly credit allowance with a usage meter.

WORKS BEST FOR
English learners get everything: word-by-word selection plus free online dictionary lookup. Other languages (Spanish, French, Portuguese, Korean, and more) also support word-by-word selection; Chinese and Japanese have basic word splitting. For every language, definitions are available through AI definitions (Pro) or imported offline MDX dictionaries.

GOOD TO KNOW
- CardMakeTool makes cards; it doesn't review them — that's what Anki is for.
- Cards are created by sharing text from another app, not inside CardMakeTool itself.
- AnkiMobile is required to receive your cards.
