Uploading files

To ensure you’re fully prepared for your exams, we recommend uploading your learning materials as documents to your study set. By doing this, you can better understand your study content and even create flashcards and notes directly from the documents.

 

StudySmarter supports the upload of PDF, PPT, and DOC files. Any uploaded files will automatically adopt the sharing status of your set.

  1. Go to the “Library” overview (second icon in the left navigation bar).
  2. Select the set for which you want to upload a document.
  3. Click the “+ Add material” button.
  4. In the “Files” section, click “Upload files.”
  5. Select the document you want to upload. StudySmarter supports PDF, PPT, and DOC files.
