Join thousands of learners globally reconnecting with their roots through Yoruba, Igbo, and Edo — the Nigerian language learning app built for real culture and real fluency. Whether you want to learn Yoruba, learn Igbo, or learn Edo, Koyo helps you speak, understand, and belong, not just memorize vocabulary. Every lesson is built with native audio, real accents, and the cultural context textbooks leave out. Maybe you grew up hearing Edo in the kitchen but never learned to speak back. Maybe you're flying into Lagos next month and want to say more than "hello”. Whatever brought you here, you're not too late. Most apps teach you what a word means. Koyo teaches you what it feels like to use it — the right greeting for an elder, the phrase that makes your grandmother smile because you finally got it right.

Your whole academic year, laid out. Tell Modulo your university, course and year, and it builds every semester, week and module — so your notes have a place before you've written a word. FOR EVERY WEEK • Open the app and you're on this week. No folders, no filenames. • One note per module per week: text, photos, highlights, tables and to-dos, in the order you put them. • Give a note a title and it shows as "Anatomy — Upper limb" everywhere. FOR GETTING THINGS DONE • To-dos live where they're due. Write one in Week 6 and it shows as coming up, then on your list, then overdue if you miss it. • This week's list on your Home screen (iPhone) or in the sidebar (iPad). Tick things off without opening the note. • Star a week to keep it on your Reviews tab. FOR REMEMBERING IT • Review reminders a week, a fortnight and a month after you take notes — spaced repetition, built in. • Search across every note, every week. • Optional Monday-morning and review-day reminders. Local, on your phone — nothing is sent anywhere. FOR YOUR COURSE • Real term dates for universities across the UK, US, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Africa and more — including medical school calendars by year, and quarter systems. • Modules can run Semester 1, Semester 2 or the full year. • If your term starts on a different date, nudge it and the whole year moves. FOR FRIENDS • Share a note and it lands in their Modulo, in the same week and module. Or send it as plain text to anyone. MADE FOR iPAD AND iPHONE A sidebar and a wide page on iPad; a clean tab bar on iPhone. Light and dark. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No tracking. Your notes stay on your device.
