Format
ouou expects a plain two-column CSV with one card per row:
| Column | Content |
|---|---|
| 1 | Card front (question or prompt) |
| 2 | Card back (answer or response) |
No header row is required. Rows where either column is empty are skipped.
Example

"What does 'active recall' mean?",Trying to remember before checking the answer.
Can I import NotebookLM CSV?,Yes. The two-column format is compatible.
Wrap a value in double quotes when it contains a comma or a line break. A
literal double quote inside a quoted value is written as two double quotes ("").
How to Import
- Open the ouou app and go to Settings.
- Find the Import section and tap Choose file to import.
- Select your
.csvfile. - Review the preview and confirm.
If your CSV came from NotebookLM, no reformatting is needed — select your exported file and import it directly.
ouou also accepts .json backup files and .zip archives from the same
import screen. CSV is for bringing in cards from other tools; use the backup
format to move a full ouou library between devices.
