About this app

What if 🇷🇺 Russian vocabulary learning would be a crazy fun game instead of boring memorisation drills? Drops makes language learning an effortless fun. Practical vocabulary is bound to your memories through beautiful graphics and quick mini-games.
The crazy part? You have only 5 mins per day. Might sound insane but works like charm! :)
These are the ingredients of the secret sauce:
👀 100% illustrated: Pictures directly carry the meaning - you don’t have to use your native language at all! No intermediary. Faster, more effective and of course more fun! :)
🏎 5 min sessions: limiting practice time sounds crazy but it it makes it incredibly addictive - which is cool thing for learning. The barrier of entry is close to zero so you can’t have any excuses: you’ll have 5 minutes even on the busiest day!
🕹 Effortless play: We know why games are fun and addictive and distilled the essence into Drops. The result is a truly immersive experience but it’s not waste of your time while you play because you build a valuable knowledge.

Ratings and reviews

Love this app! But... The "Collection". (to see the words you're working on) sucks. It takes forever to load. After it loads, it's super laggy. There's an option where you can hide a word so you don't practice it anymore. I love this option but it rarely works because this part of the app is too slow. 5 stars if this was fixed. The actual practice\learning part of the app is cool though. I paid for a year subscription. I am definitely building my vocabulary! This app is a daily habit of mine.

This app is perfect! Lately, I've been wanting to expand my foreign languages from just English and a bit of Spanish to at least a few more, Russian and German are the languages I've been wanting to learn mainly. Then I found drops! Definitely beats the other apps I've seen and used, and it's so easy to use! I like the time limit as well, it really does keep your focus pretty good! The way its sey up is very enjoyable as well, it makes me enjoy learning! 👍 5 stars here!

The ads aren't disruptive - they appear at it end of a lesson, so that's well timed. Overall, the app is effective. However, I wish the Cyrillic characters included both upper and lower case (these are quite different in some cases). The Roman phonetic notation is a little confusing - i.e. both e & ё are phonetically described as "e", even though ё makes a "yo" sound and e makes a "ie"/"iye" sound. I'm not sure why й is described as "j", though that may just be ignorance.
