About

Vocer

Features
Read full description

Vocer is a local audio repeater designed for language listening and speaking practice. It helps you practice intensive listening, shadowing, sentence segmentation, and pronunciation rhythm with your own audio materials. Import local audio through the Files app, AirDrop, or the app’s Documents folder, then manage your materials in one focused library. In the player, you can mark A/B points to create practice intervals and loop a sentence, a section, or a saved segment until it becomes familiar. Key features: - Import and manage local audio files, including common formats such as mp3, m4a, and wav - Drag the waveform to quickly locate the part you want to practice - Mark A and B points to create repeat intervals for focused training - Save segmented passages and continue playback from the saved list - Favorite useful segments and review them later in one place - Resume recent materials and playback progress - Customize default repeat count, default playback speed, and auto-enter-practice behavior after import - Clear learning records when needed; local audio files, practice records, and saved segments are primarily stored on your device Vocer does not provide online material hosting, community publishing, or an account system. It is a quiet, focused training workspace: bring in your listening materials, mark the difficult parts, repeat, shadow, and practice until they truly stick.
