Greta vs Rabbit Hole

GRETA - your app for magical shared big-screen moments! The GRETA app plays different special versions at the cinema and at home. This way, foreign language speakers and people with visual or hearing impairments are able to experience and enjoy films together in the same cinema hall. The GRETA app currently offers the following features (not all features are available in all countries at this point, please check the details in the app): Multilingual dubbing, subtitles, and original versions Audio versions: English original versions, as well as dubbed versions in Spanish, French, Ukrainian, Turkish and more Subtitles: English, Spanish, French, Ukrainian, Turkish and more Accessibility versions: Audio description for visually impaired film fans SDH subtitles for film fans with hearing impairments NEW: Sound amplification for film fans with hearing impairments and hearing aid users COMING SOON: Sign language videos Audio film: - The film sound combined with the audio description lets you enjoy the film with the original film sound and actors’ voices, whether you are at home or on the go. The app automatically recognises the film sound at the cinema and at home and plays the selected special version in sync with the film. The syncing only takes a few seconds. With GRETA, you can finally experience films the easy way. You can now watch any film in any cinema at any time, alone or with your friends. We provide the films on behalf of the film distributors. This is how it works: Install GRETA, register using a strong password, and download the desired version, ideally while you are still at home (WiFi). When the film starts, all you need to do is press “Play”, and the app automatically recognises the film sound. Don’t forget to take your favourite headphones! Of course, you can pause GRETA at any time, and when you carry on, the selected version always starts automatically at the correct point of the film. Sounds easy? It is easy! For multilingual versions: The app checks if the time of the show is correct and whether you are actually at the cinema. Please allow accurate localisation. After a successful check, a play button appears, and the film fun can start. Special features of this app: • Compatible with iOS 14.0 onwards • You can go to any cinema of your choice at any time, autonomously and independently • Get started right away and try GRETA so you can experience magical shared film moments. • Can be used in any cinema with any film (local language) • Straightforward and simple to use • Flawless, reliable performance at the cinema and at home (DVD, VoD, Blu-Ray) • An integrated stop function enables you to pause the film version at any time • Needless to say, you can also sync all versions manually at any time and adjust the volume of the spoken audio versions as well as the font size of the subtitles • For film enthusiasts who have a visual or hearing impairment: You don’t need anyone to accompany you, nor someone to whisper in your ear or point out what is being said or what is happening on the screen

Five minutes on your phone, and you put it down knowing something new. Rabbit Hole swaps the endless scroll for a calm feed of things actually worth your attention: a castle nobody visits, a cave that swallowed a river, a painting with a strange past, tonight's galaxy. No likes, no comments, no notifications, no account, no ads. Just one good story per screen, and a feed that stays partly random on purpose, so it never traps you. Swipe up for the next card. Tap to read the whole story. Swipe right to save it, left to see less like it. Pinch to look closer. Press Deeper to follow the thread into related stories, as far down the rabbit hole as you like. WHAT YOU GET • A mix of your interests (60%) and pure random (40%). 30 interests: abandoned places, space, castles, caves, architecture, birds, transport, clocks and watches, gems, actors and musicians, books, films, albums, video games, today in the world, on this day and more. • Deeper: from any card, dive into related ones — the same artist, author, animal family or category, plus Wikipedia's "more like this". Levels stack; come back up whenever you like. • Taste: swipe left and the feed shows less of that topic; save and it shows more. The taste model lives on your phone, is visible in Settings and resets with one tap. • Share: turn any card into a clean image for a chat or a story, in portrait or story format, light or dark, with the source credited. • Places nearby: Wikipedia articles about spots within 200 km of you, with a button to open them in Maps. • Eight languages: the interface and Wikipedia in English, Russian, Ukrainian, German, French, Italian, Czech and Polish. Mix reading languages any way you like. • Saved cards, exported as a Markdown file that drops straight into Obsidian or any notes app. • Works with a flaky connection: images are prefetched, and the feed quietly retries when the network drops. PRIVACY No tracking, no account, no ads. Only anonymous usage counts, which you can turn off. Saved cards and the taste model never leave your phone. Location is used only if you turn on "Places nearby", and only to search Wikipedia around you.
