Fluentish vs Smidge

Learn Spanish, French, German, Italian or Arabic by scrolling. Fluentish is a language learning app built like a feed: an endless scroll of tiny exercises, with flashcard-style spaced repetition underneath, that adapts to your level. Swap an hour of doomscrolling for real vocabulary. The app is in English, Spanish and French. Spanish and French speakers learn English. NO LONG LESSONS. JUST A FEED. There is no track to complete and no end screens. Exercises arrive continuously: match words, complete sentences, pick what you heard, read tiny stories. More than a dozen card types, mixed so it never feels like a worksheet. Answer by tapping, silent and one-handed, or with typing and speech practice on Plus. IT MEASURES, IT NEVER ASKS Fluentish times your answers. Fast and correct means you know the word; slow means it's shaky; wrong means not yet. Your vocabulary is tracked word by word, and difficulty adapts immediately, with no quiz asking what you already know. SPACED REPETITION, BUILT IN Words you've learned retire into a spaced repetition queue (FSRS) and resurface right before you'd forget them, like flashcards without maintaining a deck. Export your dictionary to CSV or Anki flashcards with Plus. A LESSONS TAB TO BROWSE, NOT A COURSE TO FINISH What sits behind the cards, in one place and free: the alphabet or sound system, grammar notes one idea at a time, conjugation and declension tables with a play button on every form, greetings and politeness formulas, and short true notes about the language itself. FIVE LANGUAGES FOR ENGLISH SPEAKERS • Spanish: vocabulary by frequency, listening practice, and Spanish conjugation tables with audio on every form. • French: vocabulary in context, and French verbs conjugated form by form. • German: vocabulary, conjugation tables, and German declension shown case by case. • Italian: vocabulary, verbs, and short stories once the words are yours. • Arabic: from the alphabet up, described below. LEARN ARABIC FROM ZERO Arabic is taught as Modern Standard Arabic across all ten levels, starting with the alphabet itself. Early cards carry the harakat, the short-vowel marks, and shed them as you climb, which is how real Arabic text works. Arabic is laid out right to left and set at a size it can actually be read at. FIND YOUR LEVEL IN 2 MINUTES A short placement test starts you at your real level, from beginner to advanced (levels 1–10). Beginners start with the 500 most useful words in the language; intermediate learners skip what they already know. FREE VS PLUS Free: unlimited scrolling, forever. No daily limit, no hearts. Free covers every level up to your placement level (minimum levels 1–3). Fluentish Plus: advance through all 10 levels, typing and speaking cards, dictionary export, streak repair, and a streak pause of up to 14 days. $7.99/month or $39.99/year with a 7-day free trial on annual. And if you break a streak without Plus, saving it once costs $0.99. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Speaking practice is graded from recognized text, never from audio: your recordings never reach Fluentish. Your phone does the recognizing, on device where it supports the language and otherwise through Apple's own speech service, the same one behind your keyboard's dictation key. Fluentish has seven language pairs: Spanish, Italian, French, German and Arabic for English speakers, plus English for Spanish and French speakers. Each direction is its own course, generated and checked separately rather than mirrored from another language. The app interface is available in English, Spanish and French. More pairs are on the way; we'd rather do these properly than ship ten badly. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

Five minutes. That is the whole ask. Smidge teaches your dog one command at a time, in sessions short enough that you will actually do them. Watch a short clip, put the phone down, run the reps, mark it done. Most lessons take under a minute. WHY SHORT SESSIONS Dogs learn more from a few short sessions spread through the day than from one long one. That is not a productivity trick, it is the finding the whole app is built on, and it is why nothing here asks for half an hour. WHAT IS IN IT 29 commands and 101 lessons, each with its own clip. The foundations: Sit, Down, Stay, Come, Leave it, Drop it, Take it, Name, Paw, Place, Settle, Stand, Touch, Loose leash and Wait. The everyday ones: Watch, Heel, Off, Up, In, Fetch and Find it. And the ones that are just fun: Spin, Roll over, Bow, Back up, Middle, Chin rest and Quiet. SIX ARE FREE FOREVER Sit, Down, Leave it, Paw, Name and Come never cost anything and are not a trial. Come especially: a recall is the command that stops a dog running into a road, and that does not belong behind a price. HOW IT TEACHES Every method here is reward-based and follows LIMA and the Humane Hierarchy. Nothing in this app asks you to frighten, hurt, startle or physically force a dog, and no lesson puts your hands on a dog to make a behaviour happen. WHAT IT WILL NOT DO Biting, guarding food or objects, reactivity to dogs or people, and distress at being left alone are not training problems with app-sized answers. Smidge asks about them up front and routes you to a certified professional instead of teaching them. That routing is free and it does not unlock later. Smidge is training guidance. It is not veterinary care and not behavioural treatment. You know your dog and this app does not. NO ACCOUNT, NO NAG There is nothing to sign up for. Your dog's name and your progress stay on your phone. No streak guilt, no countdown timers, and nothing pre-ticked anywhere. SMIDGE PRO Length: 1 month, auto-renewing Price: $12.99 per month Pro opens the other 23 commands. There is no free trial, because the six free commands above are not a countdown to a charge and never expire. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings, and cancelling takes effect at the end of the period you have paid for.
