It's because I wrote this app with cross platform software targeting mobile users. Web was an afterthought, so probably one of the packages isn't compatible with web. I put it there mainly for demo purposes. You'll have better success using it on your phone.

What OS are you using and where are you seeing this?

Sorry about that, deleted.

And yeah it's aimed towards intermediate learners

I'm glad you enjoy it :)

Noted - good ideas. They shouldn't be hard to add, but I just want to make sure they're well-integrated to the design of the app.

I agree. The East Asian languages need work to offer different scripts for Japanese and pinyin for Mandarin Chinese. A volunteer sent me the sentence deck for these courses.

The single word translations are also in beta and often incorrect for the East Asian languages, because 1) words aren't separated by spaces, and my word segmentation algorithm v1 is crude 2) the words are fed through to Google Translate api and not a dictionary.

I hope to improve on these aspects in the future. I mainly tested the app out on the languages I'm studying (Spanish and Russian), and the popular European languages seem to work well based on my experience and user feedback. I made some quick adaptions to get languages like Japanese to work, but as you're seeing, there's a ways to go for those.

There's a spaced-repetition algorithm underneath to schedule reviews at the optimal time for retention.

You can send me an email [email protected] to update your username. I'll do it for you, since there's no way on the app itself.

The current language pairs available are Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Czech, Turkish, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Persian, Italian, Polish, and Romanian from English.

And English from Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, and Polish.
