Read full description

Learn a language by reading things worth reading: art, film, books and the news, rewritten at your level from A1 to C2. AnyText is a reading app for learners who want more than drills and games. Every day brings new short texts, and almost all of them come at six CEFR levels. Tap any word to see its meaning in your language, save it, and review it later so it sticks. A NEW PAGE EVERY DAY • A painting and the story behind it • A film worth knowing • A classic book • The news, at your level • A famous quote, explained • A short essay • A culture topic from the country whose language you're learning • On this day: a moment from history • Word of the day, told in your own language Switch between A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2 on the same text whenever you like. Missed a day? Every past text stays in the Archive. TAP ANY WORD See the meaning instantly, with part of speech and pronunciation. Tap a sentence to translate it whole (iOS 18 or later). Listen to any text read aloud, with the voice and speed you choose. READ WHOLE CLASSICS The Library holds full novels, chapter by chapter, at every level: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Great Gatsby, The Call of the Wild, Notes from Underground, Washington Square and Pierre and Jean. REMEMBER WHAT YOU READ Save words to your word notebook. Spaced-repetition review brings them back at the right time, with flashcards, multiple choice, fill-the-blank and listening exercises. TRACK YOUR READING The Statistics tab shows your streak, reading calendar, level trend and daily goal. Save your favorite paintings, films, books and quotes, and discover the painters, directors and writers behind them. Home Screen widgets bring today's artwork to your iPhone, and an optional daily reminder tells you when the new page is ready. LANGUAGES Learn English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Dutch or Turkish. See word meanings in 15 languages: those seven plus Portuguese, Russian, Polish, Ukrainian, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese and Korean (iOS 18 or later for these eight). CALM AND PRIVATE No ads, no tracking, no account needed. Sign in with Apple or Google only if you want to keep your streak and statistics across devices. SUBSCRIPTION AnyText is free to download.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: AnyText at none against Vickie's shown. AnyText also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). Vickie's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
