Fetch Image

Some cards need the real thing: the actual painting, the actual bird, the actual building. Type what you're after and Interact finds a photo or a reproduction and puts it on the card.

The front of an art history card is the painting itself.

When a drawing won't do

A sketch is right for "the cat" in a vocabulary deck. It's wrong for The Starry Night, the Eiffel Tower, or a red-tailed hawk, where the whole point is to recognize a specific thing. Those cards need a real image, and finding one used to mean a search, a download, and an upload for every card.

Fetch image does that round trip for you. It looks for the picture by name, starting with Wikimedia Commons and falling back to a wider web search, and places what it finds in the card.

How it works

1. Write the card

Start a new flashcard. Put the question or the answer where you want it, and leave the side that should hold the picture empty.

2. Fetch image

Click Fetch image under that side and type what to find, like "The Starry Night" or "red-tailed hawk in flight". Interact searches, picks a match, and shows it to you.

3. Keep it or search again

If the picture is right, use it. If not, change the description and fetch again. The image goes into the card as an image, so you can still add text beside it.

4. Review on any screen

The card plays in lessons on the web, iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV on the same spaced repetition schedule as the rest of your collection.

Where it shines

Art history is the obvious case: put the work on the front and recall the title, artist, and period. It's just as useful for geography (flags, landmarks, map outlines), biology (species, cell structures), architecture, and film stills.

For words and concepts that don't have one correct picture, the Create visual option draws a sketch instead.

Common questions

Where do the images come from?

Wikimedia Commons first, which covers most well-known artworks, landmarks, and species. When it has nothing, Interact runs a web search and picks the best match.

Is the image always right?

Usually for famous works and common species. Check it before you keep it, especially for lesser-known works that share a title. Fetching again with a more specific description, like the artist's name, helps.

Can I use the images anywhere?

Fetched images are for your own study. Interact does not check the license of every result, so if you share a subject publicly, make sure the pictures in it are ones you have the right to share.

Can I use my own pictures instead?

Yes. Paste, drop, or attach an image on either side of a card. Fetched and attached pictures sit in the card the same way.

Is it free?

Each fetch counts as one AI generation, and the free plan includes 10 a month. Attaching your own images is unlimited on every plan.
