# Turn a Whiteboard Photo into Flashcards

Upload a photo or screenshot of your language class whiteboard to Schwanki. It reads the picture and sends suggested vocabulary to your Inbox so you can correct the cards before studying them.

## What to know before uploading

- Your browser converts the photo to JPEG before uploading it.
- Preparation limits the longest edge of the uploaded image to 2,400 pixels.
- Schwanki fingerprints the picture itself so a re-sync can skip an unchanged image.

For a crowded board, crop the photo around the vocabulary you want to keep. When you check the suggestions, compare accents, letter shapes, and spellings with the original photo.
