I build apps ✨

I’m working on a language app with a conversational approach to learning.

Right now you can talk to characters at different language levels, in different countries and scenarios.

What features would you want in an app like that?

With the release of DALLE-3 I added character image generation to Langs so that you can see who you’re talking to. Every character generated is unique based on the country, voice and background you select. Excited for the future.

@peakfluency_ That’s a good idea! I’ve been thinking of building challenges into the app and this would fit in there nicely. I’ll let you know when I make the update.

@smariojp Have you tried SwiftData or interactive widgets?

[Sebastian Garbarek @SebGarbarek]

Today I’m adding a language level setting to Langs that adjusts the number and complexity of words in a conversation. Here’s a comparison between beginner and fluent English.

@veryayskiy Thanks!

[Sebastian Garbarek @SebGarbarek]

Apple rejected a release because my app didn’t have a recording animation so I added this quickly, I’m not 100% happy with it but trying to move fast.

I’m no designer but I tidied up the subscription screen a bit.

Today I’m updating the subscription screen for my conversation based language learning app to offer an annual subscription option, this should hopefully reduce churn in the future.

@seanallen_dev @N1C0_MUC @CreatorViewApp Thanks, I’ll check it out, I watched your videos years ago and they helped me a lot back then.

[Sebastian Garbarek @SebGarbarek]

@seanallen_dev @N1C0_MUC @CreatorViewApp Right after onboarding is interesting! I’ll experiment with that, 1-2 ratings for 20-30 downloads is a lot

[Sebastian Garbarek @SebGarbarek]

@N1C0_MUC @seanallen_dev @CreatorViewApp Nice! I’ll try every second app start, I thought it might be too early but if you have good results I’ll try it, what’s the app?
