Cantito is a language learning app that teaches foreign languages through real songs, stories, poetry, fables, and folk tales. Instead of artificial textbook sentences, Cantito breaks down authentic works sentence by sentence into rich mini-lessons covering: • Full translation and romanization • Word-by-word breakdown with part of speech • Grammar explanations in context • Etymology and word origins • Conjugation and declension tables • Cultural and literary analysis • Native audio pronunciation LEARN THROUGH GREAT STORIES Start with folk tales and fables, then progress through classic poetry, songs, and stories. Over 1,000 lessons across 19 languages, with new material added regularly. Every piece is carefully broken down so you learn real language as it's actually used. GUIDED LESSONS Follow step-by-step guided lessons that walk you through each sentence, introducing vocabulary and grammar in context before moving on. Perfect for beginners and structured learners. PRONUNCIATION PRACTICE Record yourself speaking and get instant feedback. Cantito uses speech recognition to score your pronunciation by comparing it against the expected text, helping you sound more natural. SHADOWING Practice speaking along with native audio in real time. Shadowing builds fluency, listening comprehension, and natural rhythm by having you speak simultaneously with a native speaker. SPACED REPETITION Cantito uses FSRS (Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler), a modern algorithm based on memory research, to schedule your reviews at the optimal time. Words and sentences you find difficult come back sooner; ones you know well are spaced further apart. Review both full sentences and individual words. DEEP WORD ANALYSIS Tap any word to see its etymology, related forms, usage notes, example sentences, and full conjugation or declension tables. Understand not just what a word means, but where it comes from and how it changes. EXPORT TO ANKI Cantito Premium users can export their vocabulary to Anki (.apkg) with one tap — complete with audio, example sentences, and context from the lessons you've studied. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS See sentences learned, words encountered, sources started, and favorites at a glance. An activity heatmap shows your consistency over time. WORKS OFFLINE Download content for offline study. Your progress syncs automatically when you're back online. LANGUAGES Currently featuring Russian, German, Spanish, French, Swedish, Greek, Portuguese, and Brazilian Portuguese, with preliminary support for Irish, Italian, Polish, Ukrainian, Persian, Dutch, Welsh, Japanese, Korean, Latin, and Chinese — with more on the way.

SkillPath turns "I want to learn X" into a real roadmap. Set a skill, give it a target in hours, break it into milestones, and log every practice session — the home screen tracks your progress as a chartreuse ring so you always know how close you are to mastery. Everything lives on your device: no account, no cloud, no login wall. HOW IT WORKS: • Add a skill (a language, an instrument, a craft — anything) and set a target in hours • Break it into milestones you write yourself, like a curriculum • Log each practice session with minutes, notes, and a 1–5 rating • Watch the progress ring fill as your practice hours add up • Keep a daily streak going with a reminder notification FREE: • Up to 2 active skills, with unlimited milestones and sessions inside each • Daily practice log with minutes, notes, and rating • 30-day rolling history per skill • Streak counter and this-week minutes on the home screen • Daily reminder notification • Four built-in practice templates (15 / 30 / 45 / 60-minute session structures) SKILLPATH PREMIUM: • Unlimited skills and unlimited milestones • Unlimited custom practice templates, with the option to pin one to a specific skill • Advanced statistics: weekly practice chart, hours-by-skill breakdown, 12-month heatmap, and skill velocity trend • Flexible reminder patterns — daily, weekdays only, or custom days of the week • CSV export of every practice log • Ad-free Premium is available as a $2.99 monthly subscription, a $29.99 yearly subscription, or a $99.99 one-time lifetime purchase — pick whichever fits how you learn.
