How it works
From "how do I say this?" to saying it without thinking.
- 1
Type it your way
Write the phrase you need in your own words. Pick your region once (like Mexico for Spanish), and add a note like "casual" or "for my doctor" when it matters.
- 2
Understand it
See the translation and hear it read aloud. Tap Explain for a short note on word choice and tone.
- 3
Drill it on autopilot
Save it as a flashcard. Spaced repetition brings it back right before you'd forget it, less often as you master it.
A few minutes of review a day
Open Review and today's cards are waiting: the ones you're about to forget, plus a few new ones. Everything else stays out of the way until it's due.
Each card shows one side. Say the other side out loud, flip it, and be honest with yourself.
- Correct and it comes back later each time: tomorrow, then in 3 days, a week, two weeks, a month, and on up to a year.
- Incorrect and it drops back a level and comes up again before you finish.
Or review by ear. Turn on audio and you don't need to read: hear the phrase, say your answer, tap anywhere to hear the other side, then swipe right if you got it, left if you didn't.
The app keeps the schedule, so you only ever see what's due.
Every device, always in sync
Save a phrase on your phone the moment you need it, then review it on whatever device is handy. Install it to your home screen like an app.
Your own phrasebook
Tag phrases into study sets like "restaurant," "landlord" or "travel," and add notes to either side of a card.
Mastery levels you can see
Each card climbs through mastery levels as you get it right. Adjust the review intervals if you want more or less practice.
Practice both directions
Reverse any card to recall the phrase from your own language, not just recognize it.

Questions
Is this the same as the Chrome extension?
It's the next version. The extension only worked on desktop with Google Translate; the app works on any device and translates on its own. You can import your extension phrasebook any time; it's a one-time move.
Which languages can I learn?
Any pair of these 42: Arabic, Bengali, Cantonese, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Haitian Creole, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Lithuanian, Malay, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese.
Do I need to download anything?
No. It runs in your browser. On a phone, add it to your home screen and it opens like any other app.
What happens if I cancel Pro?
You keep every card and can keep reviewing them for free. You go back to the free limits for new translations and cards.
