Stuck on a language learning plateau? Lingible helps you become fluent through immersion — by reading real books, watching videos with dual subtitles, and shadowing native audio. 40+ languages. No drills. No streaks. Just immersion. THE LINGIBLE METHOD Tired of language apps that feel like homework? Drills and gamification get you to A2 — then nothing. Lingible is built for intermediate learners who want to break through the plateau using comprehensible input — the same method polyglots and linguists like Stephen Krashen recommend. You learn the way you learned your native language: by understanding real content, in context, every day. READ — Books in your target language Access 60,000+ bilingual books or upload your own. Supported formats: EPUB, PDF, MOBI, TXT, FB2. - Tap any word for instant translation - AI explains tough sentences in simple terms - Parallel text mode — see both languages side by side - Save unknown words automatically WATCH — YouTube with dual subtitles Turn any YouTube video into a language lesson. - Dual subtitles — target language + your native language - Tap subtitles to translate any word - Loop and repeat any phrase (perfect for shadowing) - Adjust playback speed to your level LISTEN — Audiobooks and TTS Hear every book read aloud by natural AI voices. - Listen while reading - Build listening comprehension naturally - Train your ear for native pronunciation PRACTICE — Shadowing and review Shadow native speakers to fix pronunciation and rhythm. - Loop any sentence to practice shadowing - Auto-generated flashcards from words you save - Spaced repetition keeps vocabulary in long-term memory WHY IMMERSION WORKS Memorizing 500 words from a list doesn't make you fluent. Reading a book where those words appear in real stories does. Watching a YouTube creator you actually like, with subtitles you can tap — that's immersion. That's how the brain acquires language. Lingible combines reading, watching, listening, and shadowing in one app — so you can replace passive scrolling with comprehensible input every day. 40+ LANGUAGES SUPPORTED English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Dutch, Polish, and more. WHO IS LINGIBLE FOR - Intermediate learners (A2-C1) stuck on the plateau - Duolingo graduates who want real fluency - Language Reactor users who want a mobile-first experience - Polyglots who learn through native content - Anyone who wants to read foreign books with confidence Stop memorizing. Start understanding. Download Lingible and learn languages the way your brain actually wants to. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
