Import from Quizlet via Extension

FlashBuddy Extras is a Chrome extension that scrapes any public Quizlet deck and sends the cards directly to FlashBuddy — no server, no copy-pasting.

Requirements

How to Use

  1. Open FlashBuddy in your browser.
  2. In a separate tab, open the Quizlet deck you want to import.
  3. A FlashBuddy button will appear in the bottom-right corner of the Quizlet page.
  4. Click the button — the extension scrapes the deck and displays the cards in a preview panel.
  5. Review the cards, then click Send to FlashBuddy.
  6. Switch back to the FlashBuddy tab — the deck editor will open with the imported cards pre-filled.
  7. Give the deck a name and click Save Deck.

Notes

Troubleshooting

Button doesn't appear on the Quizlet page — make sure the URL contains a deck ID (e.g. quizlet.com/123456/deck-name). The button only shows on individual deck pages.

"Extension not detected" in FlashBuddy — reload the FlashBuddy page. If running as a local .html file, enable "Allow access to file URLs" in the extension settings: chrome://extensions → FlashBuddy Extras → Details.

Import fails / no cards found — try the PDF import method as a fallback. Quizlet occasionally changes their page structure, which can break scraping temporarily.
