Struggling to speak English as well as you understand it? Shadow trains you with shadowing: you listen to a native speaker and repeat right after them, copying their rhythm, stress and intonation. You practise with any clip you like: upload a video, paste a YouTube link, record a voice note, or type your own text. Shadow cuts it into phrases, pauses for you to repeat, and records you so you hear how close you sound. Upload anything you want to sound like: a YouTube video, a podcast, a voice note, a song, a scene from a movie. Shadow transcribes it, splits it into phrases you can repeat, and loops them until the words come out without thinking. ASK SHADOW, YOUR COACH, IN THE APP Stuck on how to say something? Ask in your own language and get the English a native would really use, with two or three ways to say it and what each one brings with it. Paste a sentence you wrote and see it rewritten the way people actually speak. Hear every answer in a British, American or Australian voice, see the phonetics under the words, and save the good ones straight into your practice. Then practice them. A ten-round daily session is built from your own saved phrases and the mistakes that keep coming back, answered out loud or typed, and marked one answer at a time with your own words next to the correction. SHADOWING, PROPERLY • Phrase-by-phrase looping with the pauses you choose • Record yourself over the original and compare, line by line • Pitch and rhythm shown side by side, so you can hear what's different • Phonetic transcription under any line, British or American • Fold away an ad, a laugh or a line you'd never say, and the drill walks past it • Save any phrase and drill it later, in collections you make MAKE YOUR OWN MATERIAL • Paste any text and hear it read back, line by line, in the voices you pick • Turn any phrase into voiced examples in different situations • Generate dialogues and monologues to shadow, in the accent and voice you pick • Film yourself next to the original and export it LEARN A SPEECH BY HEART Not only someone else's English. A wedding speech, a conference talk, the lines for an audition, the answers you want ready for an interview: paste your own text, pick a voice, and Shadow reads it back and cuts it into phrases. Repeat each one until it comes out without the page in front of you, then hide a word at a time and say the line from memory. The drill that makes a foreign phrase stick makes your own words stick too. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE • A Home Screen widget with today's phrase and your bonsai • Light and dark, following your phone or pinned to one • Works offline once a clip is in • Apple Watch remote for your phrase drills, with the phonetics on your wrist Whether you're preparing for a meeting, moving countries, or just tired of being understood but not sounding like yourself, Shadow is the practice that gets you there.
