Read full descriptionHide full description
GogaQ is a language-learning app where you practice with AI. Learn English, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified), Korean, Spanish, French, German, Indonesian, Vietnamese or Thai, paired with your own language. The app itself is available in English, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Thai and German. ■ MEMORIZE • Sentence book: over 2,000 graded sentences per language (CEFR, JLPT for Japanese, HSK for Chinese, TOPIK for Korean). Each sentence packs in key words, phrases and structures • Word book: usage, synonyms, antonyms and related forms for every headword • Natural AI audio for every sentence and word • Flashcards: review the expressions you saved while practising ■ SPEAK & WRITE • AI free talk: choose a scene and the AI starts the conversation. Speak into the mic and hear the replies • Quick writing: themed writing drills. Type or say your answer and the AI scores it and explains more natural wording. You can create your own themes too ■ READ & LISTEN • AI news: choose a topic and the AI writes a reading article at your level • Listening: dictation, listening for the gist, and shadowing ■ DRILLS • Vocabulary, idioms, sentence patterns and grammar. The AI writes questions at your level on the spot, and you can start as soon as the first one is ready • Idioms come with their origin and imagery, not just the meaning • Vocabulary drills cover TOEFL / IELTS, JLPT, HSK, TOPIK, DELE, DELF and Goethe word lists ■ KEEP GOING • Your home screen shows today's practice, this week's progress and an expression of the day • Learning insights list your average scores and the words you often get wrong ■ PLANS • Free: 20 points as a one-time sign-up gift, valid for 30 days. Features that don't use AI (sentence book, word book, flashcards) stay free with no time limit • Lite / Standard / Pro: 200 / 500 / 800 points every month AI-powered practice (conversation, corrections, articles, drill generation) uses points. You can buy extra points, and purchased points never expire. Prices for your country are shown in the app. You can change plans at any time. ■ PRIVACY Your conversations are stored only as your own learning data and are never shared with other users. Voice data is discarded straight after speech recognition.

Discover and learn Japanese with complete, real sentences. 180 themes of 10 sentences each, from the classics to the unexpected — 1,800 sentences in total. Free to download, no account, no ads. ONE SENTENCE AT A TIME Most learning methods drown you in vocabulary lists. Looplingo works differently: one sentence, one context, one score. Every review is rated, and the system prioritizes whatever keeps slipping away. The more you practice, the less time you waste. EVERYDAY THEMES Restaurant, transport, hotel, family… Pick a theme, review its sentences, and track your progress card by card. A fully mastered theme gets validated — but stays replayable anytime. THREE REVIEW MODES • Cards: flip the card and rate yourself honestly. • Multiple choice quiz: pick the right translation out of four options, with visual and haptic feedback. • Priority: a smart session that gathers your difficult sentences and your favorites. SIMPLE, HONEST PROGRESS No black-box algorithm: every correct answer brings a sentence closer to being acquired, every mistake pushes it back. And each direction is tracked separately — understanding a sentence and producing it are two different skills. When a sentence reaches your mastery threshold (adjustable from 1 to 100), it's acquired. Slow memorizer? Raise the threshold. Want to move fast? Lower it. YOUR FAVORITES FIRST Tap the heart on sentences that keep tripping you up. Priority mode puts them at the front of the session, together with the sentences the app automatically detects as fragile. BUILT FOR JAPANESE Display in hiragana or kanji, optional romaji under the cards, and text-to-speech to hear every sentence with the right pronunciation. CONSISTENCY OVER INTENSITY Daily progress rings, streak, daily goal, and an optional daily reminder: five minutes a day beats an hour on Sunday. FREE TO ACTUALLY TRY The free version is not a demo: 4 full themes, all language pairs, and every review mode, with no time limit. LOOPLINGO PRO, ONE-TIME PURCHASE FOR LIFE Unlock 100% of the themes (all 180, 1,800 sentences), add your own custom sentence packs (JSON, loaded from a simple URL), and export or restore your database anytime. One single purchase, no subscription. Your data stays on your device, and deleting a pack never deletes your learning history. 5 LANGUAGES, EVERY COMBINATION French, Japanese, English, Chinese and Korean are all built in — and every pair works both ways: French → Japanese, Japanese → French, Chinese → Korean, English → Chinese… Learn in whichever direction you want, from whichever language you already speak. More languages are on the way — feel free to tell us which ones you'd like to see first. Open a theme. Flip a card. Come back every day. That's the whole secret.

The clearest difference is ads: Looplingo at none against GogaQ's shown. On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
