## What is reels?

reels is an English learning app with short, subtitled videos.

• Save sentences to your Book and replay just that part as many times as you like (up to 1,000)
• Filter lessons by category: Conversation, Grammar & vocabulary, Science & space, and Short films
• Every lesson is marked Beginner, Intermediate, or Advanced
