VibeLing – language flashcard app that doesn't make you fill cards manually
Been learning English for years, then moved abroad and picked up Serbian on the side. Tried everything — Duolingo, Anki, a bunch of others. Anki has a great algorithm but honestly it's exhausting to use daily. You spend more time setting up cards than actually learning.
So I ended up building my own app. The main idea: you type any word or phrase, and the app handles everything else — translation, example sentences, audio. No manual work.
5 training modes:
- Multiple choice (distractors are contextually similar, so you can't just guess)
- Fill in the blank inside a real sentence
- Spell the word from shuffled letters
- Pronunciation practice with speech recognition
- Classic self-assessment recall
Spaced repetition runs in the background automatically — just open the app, do your daily session (~15 min), and it decides what to review. No settings to fiddle with.
Supported languages for learning: English, Spanish, French, German, Romanian, Serbian, Russian
