## What is Fluency?

Learn English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese through immersion — not flashcards or boring drills.

Fluency is a language app that helps you build real fluency through stories, podcasts, videos, and music. Just real content you actually enjoy.

Read stories with word-by-word highlighting
Follow along with audiobooks and beginner friendly books. Tap any word to translate it instantly. Karaoke-style highlighting keeps you immersed and improves reading comprehension at your own self-paced rhythm.

Watch YouTube videos in your target language
Learn from real native content with subtitles and captions to help you follow along. Pick up new vocabulary and phrases naturally by watching videos made for real audiences.

Listen to music designed for language learners
Build listening comprehension and learn new vocabulary through music — one of the most natural ways to absorb a language. Songs are designed for your level and focus on common vocabulary and natural usage of the language.

Immersive reading practice
Tap to translate any word or sentence as you read. Follow along with audio narration for listening practice while you read. Whether you're reading short or full-length stories, Fluency turns every page into a self-study session.

Perfect for learners who:
- Want to learn vocabulary through context, not memorization
- Prefer self-paced immersion over structured lessons
- Are beginner, intermediate, or advanced and want real reading and listening practice
- Are tired of apps that feel like homework

Languages available:

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2026-06-03*

I really like this app for studying Spanish, the books and stories are really engaging and you can choose from a lot of different genres. I also enjoy the variety of content it offers like music and videos to switch up your learning styles. I’ll definitely be using this app to study some other languages like Swedish since this app offers a fresh approach that makes practicing feel less like studying and more like enjoying the language used in everyday life.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review Brooke! My dog is very happy you are enjoying her app and find it useful! I hope you become fluent in Swedish and get to go to Stockholm and show off your skills! Best, Scott and Zoey
