Simple apps for learning a language, built around short, frequent practice: the kind you'll actually keep doing.
The raichō is a snow grouse that lives above the treeline in the Japanese Alps and somehow declines to leave for the winter. It is not fast and it is not fierce. It just keeps showing up, season after season, which is more or less the entire theory of how you learn a language.
So the Raicho apps are built for consistency instead of intensity. Small sessions. No streak guilt. Nothing that punishes you for missing a Tuesday.
Three ways to practice, designed to be used together or on their own. All three are in development for iPhone and iPad.
Daily drilling in short, self-contained sessions. Review comes back around on its own schedule, so you spend your time on the words that haven't stuck yet.
Real reading at a level you can handle, with the dictionary a tap away. Look something up without losing your place in the sentence.
Crossword puzzles built from the vocabulary you're learning. Works entirely offline, no account, just quick puzzles to learn and remember.
Nothing has shipped to the App Store yet. When it does, download links will appear here.
