PushBites
Read full descriptionHide full description
PushBites teaches practical Spanish in small pushed lessons. A few times a day a bite arrives on your lock screen: one useful phrase, what it means, how it sounds, and an example. Read it right there — no app to open — or open PushBites and take the day's bites as one short deck. HOW IT WORKS • Choose 1, 2 or 3 bites a day and a time. PushBites spaces them across your day and never sends inside your quiet hours. • Each notification is a complete lesson. Long-press to reveal the meaning, hear it spoken, mark that you knew it, or save it — without unlocking. • Shaky phrases come back sooner; solid ones return now and then. Spaced repetition decides, you just answer. • Quiz yourself by typing or multiple choice, in either direction. • Save phrases, organise collections, and export your library as a CSV at any time. • Pause for a day or a holiday. Missed days are shown plainly — no guilt, no warnings. WHAT IT IS NOT No streaks that scold you. No ads. No tracking. Start without an account; sign in with Apple only if you want your progress to follow you. PushBites launches with Spanish for English speakers, everyday phrases through advanced idioms and quotations, with pronunciation audio on the core levels. More languages follow as the catalogue grows. PUSHBITES PRO (optional) Up to 8 bites a day, more learning languages, full pronunciation audio and offline packs, all four quiz modes. $4.99 per month or $29.99 per year, auto-renewing; cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Everything above the line stays free. Terms of Use: https://pushbites.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://pushbites.com/privacy
