Move your Language Reactor saves to Anki

Drop the export zip from Language Reactor — your saved phrases, images, and audio come across as a clean .apkg you can study on any device.

How it works

1. Drop your file

Notion export, PDF, Word, Markdown, or a Quizlet export.

2. 2anki builds your deck

Usually a few seconds. Bigger files take a minute.

3. Open it in Anki

Double-click the .apkg file. Your cards are ready to study.

Supported formats

What you actually get in Anki

Cloze deletions stay clickable

{{c1::...}} becomes a real Anki cloze card, not plain text.

Images render in the card

Embedded images come across and display on the front or back.

Tags carry over

Strikethrough in Notion or a tag column in CSV attaches to every card in the deck.

Correct note types

Basic, Cloze, and front/back map to the right Anki note type so import is clean.

No junk in your cards

No empty backs, no stray #, *, or $ characters left over from your notes.

Common questions

How do I export from Language Reactor?

Open the Language Reactor extension, go to your saved phrases, and use the Export option to download a ZIP. The ZIP contains a CSV of your phrases together with the images and audio captured from the source video and subtitles.

What's in the export?

Your saved phrases become cards — the phrase on the front, the translation and context on the back. Images and audio captured from the source video come across embedded so each card keeps its sentence audio and screenshot.

Why do the thumbnails look blank in Anki on my phone?

Language Reactor stores card thumbnails using CSS background-image URLs. Anki desktop renders these; Anki mobile on iOS and Android does not. The phrase, translation, and audio still work — only the thumbnail image is missing on mobile. Workaround: study these cards on desktop, or wait for the automatic rewrite that turns background-image into a regular img tag (planned).

Does the sentence audio stay paired with the right card?

Yes. Each audio clip is named in the export so it stays attached to the phrase it came from. After import, tapping the play button on a card plays the original line from the source video.
