About
ScanLingo turns the words you meet while reading into cards you can revisit right where they came from. Start from a page you're reading or an object in front of you — and build your vocabulary a little at a time.
Snap and Learn
Take a photo or pick an image, and ScanLingo recognizes the object right on your device, showing up to 3 candidate words ranked by confidence. Pick the one you want, check or edit the translation and definition, then save it to your vocabulary cards.
Learn From the Book
Scan a page with on-device OCR, confirm the text, then get the translation and read-aloud and save the sentences you care about. Add title, author, cover, page and notes — every card stays linked to its book and page, so review takes you straight back to the original line.
Pronunciation and Follow-Reading
Words, phrases and sentences keep their original text, translation, pronunciation hints and source context. Read along, hold to follow-read, and see how you did — steadily moving between what you've mastered and what's due.
