Synapse Language Learning

Synapse Language Learning is a language-learning app for iPhone, iPad, and Android. It supports 26 learning languages and 26 interface languages, including translated stories and word definitions. Lessons start with listening exercises for sounds not distinguished in the learner's native language, such as the Korean consonants ㄱ, ㄲ, and ㅋ for English speakers. Alphabet lessons introduce individual letters with audio; Hangul is supported, with other languages added over time.

The app uses short, slowly narrated stories with word-by-word reading. Words can be tapped for definitions and saved for review. Its camera feature identifies objects and provides their names. Saved vocabulary is reviewed with FSRS spaced repetition using cards with audio, an example sentence, and an image.

Synapse is limited to language learning. It does not import Anki decks or support cards for other subjects; review cards are generated from words saved in the app.
