Learn Tagalog the straightforward way, one day at a time. Whether you're a complete beginner or just getting back into it, this app gives you a clear daily routine so you always know what to study next. No guessing, no overwhelm, just a simple plan that keeps you moving forward. The heart of the app is the Daily Word Learning Plan. Each day you get a small set of Tagalog words to work through in short, focused sessions. You study them step by step, practice with related phrases, and complete the plan to keep your streak alive. It's the kind of structure that actually makes a habit stick. What's inside: Home Dashboard - See your daily plan, check your streak, and review your weekly activity at a glance. Words Module - Study Tagalog words through flashcards, image-to-word matching, quizzes, fill-in-the-blank exercises, and real example sentences. Then put them to work with typing, dictation, listening-based quizzes, and production exercises. Phrasebook - Browse phrases organized by category, listen to how they sound, and practice with listening quizzes and phrase dictation. You'll cover 30 different everyday categories. Recall Module - A spaced repetition system (SRS) surfaces words right before you'd forget them, so your Tagalog vocabulary actually sticks long term. Statistics - Track your study sessions and see how your progress adds up over time. Offline Support - Core content is available offline so you can keep learning even without a connection. If you want to learn to speak Tagalog, the Phrasebook and listening exercises are a great place to start. You'll hear real Tagalog phrases, practice recognizing them by ear, and build the kind of listening confidence that carries over into real conversations. The dictation and production exercises push you to recall and use Tagalog words actively, not just recognize them passively. The spaced repetition review makes sure the Tagalog words you've already learned don't slip away. It's one of the most effective ways to build lasting vocabulary, and it's built right into the daily flow. Building a Tagalog vocabulary takes consistency more than anything else. That's why the streak system and weekly activity view are there, to give you a small daily reason to show up. Even a short session counts. Free vs. Premium: The free plan covers the full basic learning journey. You can follow the Home and Daily Vocabulary Learning modules, study with the core Words modules, complete standard Words exercises, access 5 sentences in each of the 30 Phrasebook categories, review with SRS, and track your progress in the Stats section. Premium unlocks everything in the free plan plus advanced Words tools including Weak Spot, Speed Test, and Matching. You also get 100 sentences per category in the Phrasebook, and access to Sentence Search, Sentence Review, and Listening Lab for deeper, faster practice. If you're ready to learn Tagalog words, build real listening skills, and finally make progress that lasts, this app gives you the structure to do it.
