I built a language vocabulary app, "mulvolin". Now it's making me learn Spanish and Korean🇪🇸🇰🇷

You can put the phone down now.

I finally built the feature I’d been wanting for mulvolin.

v1.5.0 — Listening reads your words, meanings & examples, even with the screen off.

Every session earns XP too.

mulvolin speaks Spanish now.

Set the app to Spanish, and play the emoji quiz in Spanish

Which language should I add next? 👇

@leejihoondd Thanks fir your opinion!
In this Listening feature, I use TTS but most of function depends on voices installing in OS naturally

I’ve felt like a vocabulary app should let you listen to your learned words anytime.

So I'm developing a Listening feature 🎧

You can review while walking, driving, or doing anything.

No need to stare at your screen and learn with your ears 👂

I asked someone learning a language how they study.

They said: on paper. "It stays in my head better."

So I added mulvolin's screens theme to feel like paper. Then a second one, with the color taken out.

Paper or mono? 👇

DAY 30 / 61 🐾

We're developing a new theme!

I want to create an eye-friendly theme that helps users focus better on learning👀

I wonder if people who prefer studying on paper would also find monochrome or low-saturation themes easier to study with🧐

@Sanguisan Of course! You can use it not only for Japanese, but for other languages too!
I just released a new version that makes building your vocabulary deck more fun and motivating 🙌
