Learn Spanish by reading what you actually enjoy. Lingard turns books, daily news and audio into Spanish practice: tap any word to see its translation in context, listen along sentence by sentence, and keep new words with spaced repetition until they stick. Learning French, German or English instead? Everything works the same way in all four languages. ## Graded books in Spanish, French, German and English Books are adapted to your level (graded readers), so you can enjoy a real story even as a beginner. More than 1,000 books, dialogues, non-fiction summaries, podcasts and retold plots of popular films and TV series, sorted into six levels from beginner to proficiency (A1–C2).

A few minutes of reading in your new language a day, with a fresh topic each time. ## Tap a word, get the meaning See the translation in context, example sentences, synonyms, antonyms, phrasal verbs and word families, plus an AI-powered dictionary, without leaving the page. Translations are shown in your native language. ## Listen and read along Every sentence has audio. Follow the text as it plays, change the speed, loop a sentence and repeat it out loud to train your listening and pronunciation. Audiobooks are synced with the text. ## Remember vocabulary for good Save Spanish words from any book or article with one tap. Lingard's spaced repetition system (SRS) turns them into flashcards and brings each one back right before you would forget it.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RTN TV at none against Lingard's 8. RTN TV also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (82% vs 66%). Lingard's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (838 vs 27). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for RTN TV against 4.7 for Lingard. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lingard has 838 ratings behind it against 27, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 82% of RTN TV's written reviews are positive against 66% of Lingard's.
RTN TV ships an update every 2 months, Lingard every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
