You don't have to find time to learn. It finds you. A question pops up on your phone during the day. You answer right from the notification, without opening the app, and carry on with whatever you were doing. It fits between two sips of coffee. What you learn is up to you: English vocabulary, exam prep, general knowledge or anything else. Make your own quiz, question by question. Or if you don't feel like it, type a topic, AI drafts it and you adjust it. How it works • Pick a lesson and set how often questions should come. • A question waits in your notifications until you have a moment. • Go through all the questions or only the ones you keep missing, in order or shuffled. • Set quiet hours and questions wait until morning. When you have a bit more time, on the bus for example, start a round right on your Lock Screen and questions come one after another for as long as you like. You can also answer on Apple Watch. For each lesson you see what you already know and what deserves another round. A few questions a day add up nicely over a week and a month. Free and Dropling+ Free gives you two lessons of up to ten questions, and AI can prepare two more for you. Dropling+ gives you as many lessons as you like, up to 80 questions in each, 10 AI lessons a month and sharing lessons by link. You don't need an account and there are no ads. Your lessons and progress stay on your phone and reach your other devices through iCloud. Dropling+ is an auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. It renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Account Settings after purchase. Terms of Use (EULA): https://dropling.app/terms?lang=en Privacy Policy: https://dropling.app/privacy?lang=en

About

Munin

Read full description

Munin is a microlearning app for curious adults who want to build their general knowledge. Learn something new every day with short lessons in history, science, philosophy, psychology and mythology, then keep it with spaced repetition quizzes that bring each fact back right before you would forget it. STOP SCROLLING, START LEARNING You already spend time on your phone every day. Munin turns that time into knowledge. Every lesson takes a few minutes, states its learning goal up front and ends with a short quiz. Same quick hit as a feed, except you finish smarter. LESSONS THAT STICK Most learning apps let you read and forget. Munin does not. Every question you answer joins your personal review queue. Get it right and it comes back later. Get it wrong and it comes back sooner. This is spaced repetition, the memory technique used by medical students and language learners, built into every topic. TYPE IT, DON'T TAP IT Recognising the right option in a list is easy. Recalling it is what makes it stick. Selected questions ask you to type the answer, and questions you already know well switch to typed answers in review. Small typos are forgiven and the official spelling is shown. WHAT YOU GET • Bite-sized lessons written for adults, with the learning goal stated before you start • Quiz questions with explanations: multiple choice, typed answers, ranking, fill-in-the-blank and matching • Spaced repetition review: one daily review session sized to what is actually due • Your knowledge map: every topic you study becomes a tile on a growing hex map • Streaks, XP and ranks: build a daily learning habit one day at a time • Trophy shelf: master a topic and it goes on display • Weekly forecast: see what is due today and what is coming up this week • A growing library: new topics and lessons are added regularly WHAT YOU CAN LEARN • History: ancient empires, revolutions, trade routes and the world wars • Philosophy and ideas: Stoicism, existentialism, Buddhism, logic and the Enlightenment • Mythology and culture: Greek, Norse and Egyptian gods, the Renaissance and architecture • Science: the solar system, the human body, nuclear energy and the weather • Mind and behaviour: psychology and how memory works • Economics and power: propaganda, economic crises and the legacies of empire Pick the topics you care about and Munin builds your daily plan around them: general knowledge with depth, a few minutes at a time. WHO MUNIN IS FOR • Anyone who wants to replace doomscrolling with a daily learning habit • General knowledge and trivia fans who want depth, not just facts • Students and lifelong learners who need a memory system that actually works • Commuters, queue-standers and coffee-break readers with a few spare minutes WHY "MUNIN"? In Norse mythology Munin is one of Odin's ravens. The name means memory. Every morning he flies out over the world and returns with what he has learned. That is what this app does for you. FREE TO START Munin is free to download and includes a daily lesson allowance plus review sessions. Munin Unlimited removes the daily limit and is available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it at any time in your App Store account settings.
