Learn Italian, English or Turkish by reading short stories written for learners, from your first words at A1 to fluent reading at C1. Read a book, tap any word you don't know, and the meaning appears right there on the page. You keep reading. Every word you tap becomes a card, and later the app quizzes you on your own words. Then a short grammar topic shows you why the sentence works. START FREE The first book at your level, cover to cover, plus two gift books on your second and third visits and the first grammar topic of every level. No account, no email, no ads. THE DICTIONARY COMES TO YOU A tapped word shows its dictionary form, its meaning in this sentence, and a play button to hear it. Press and hold a sentence to see it in your language and hear it read aloud. A GRAMMAR PATH, ONE TOPIC AT A TIME 47 topics from A1 to C1. Each topic explains the rule in your language, then practices it with real sentences from the books, and ends with a short test. Pass a level test to move ahead. YOUR DECK BUILDS ITSELF Every word you tap becomes a card. BookTap tests you on your words only, with questions taken straight from the book you read. What you know moves further out; what you miss comes back sooner. WORD RACE A quick game against the clock: sort each word into the right corner before time runs out. Three levels of difficulty, a record for every length. KEEP THE HABIT A daily streak with a small safety net, a daily goal you choose, badges, a weekly summary and gentle reminders you control. 212 ORIGINAL BOOKS, A1 TO C1 563 chapters written for learners, across five levels: A1 44, A2 48, B1 43, B2 38, C1 39. A placement test finds where to start. THREE LANGUAGES Speak English? Read Italian or Turkish. Speak Italian? Read English or Turkish. Speak Turkish? Read Italian or English. The app itself speaks your language. IT BEHAVES LIKE A BOOK Real page-turns with the sound of paper. Sepia, light and dark. Your type size, line spacing and page layout. Works fully offline. HOW IT WORKS The first book at your level is free in full, along with two gift books on your second and third visits and the first grammar topic of every level. The word race is free once a day on your first three game days. Every other book, the full grammar path, level tests and the unlimited word race open with BookTap Pro, a weekly or yearly auto-renewing subscription; the 7-day free trial applies to the yearly plan only. Payment is charged to your Apple account, the subscription renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period, and you can cancel any time in your App Store settings.
