About this app

You know the words. Real speech still gets away from you. Sound familiar?
Fast. Blurred together. Half the sounds gone.
PlayLingo turns any YouTube video into practice: understand every line, then say it yourself.

Subtitles, translation, explanations, shadowing and word review.

WHO IT'S FOR
• You read English fine, but listening is the one skill that won't move
• You want to keep up shadowing but quit after three days
• You want to follow your favorite YouTubers, shows and interviews without pausing for a dictionary
• You learn a language other than English: same app, same method

WATCH: any video becomes your material
• Any YouTube video or podcast. Plus curated picks refreshed every day
• Collections by level, A1 to C2, and by topic. Shelves like "Start here" and "6 minutes or less"

UNDERSTAND: one sentence at a time, never left behind
• Subtitles split by sentence and synced with the video
• Phonetic transcription, so you see how a word actually sounds
• Parts of speech in color, so the shape of a sentence is visible at a glance
• Translation in context: what the line means in this scene
• Tap a word or an idiom and Lingo, your AI assistant, explains it in this sentence. "Make sure" is explained as one phrase, not two words

PRACTICE: five ways to watch the same video
• Watch: bilingual subtitles, the line and its translation, follow along
• Understand: translation hidden, work out the meaning yourself
• Listen: text hidden, catch the line by ear. Tap only the word you missed
• Build: put the line back together from its words
• Speak: say each line out loud. Words light up as you say them
• Even videos in your own language work: you study their translation into the language you're learning

REMEMBER: words come back before you forget them
• Save words and phrases straight from the subtitles and build your vocabulary
• Review runs on FSRS, a spaced-repetition algorithm timed to your memory
• Every card keeps the scene and the sentence where you heard the word
• A Home Screen widget with your word of the day

KEEP GOING
• Three minutes of watching or one round of practice counts as a study day
• Your streak comes with freezes that cover a missed day on their own
• Sign in with Google or Apple and your words and progress sync across your phone and tablet

FREE AND PRO
• Free every day: subtitles, translation, Lingo's explanations, daily practice and word review
• No limit on which videos you can open. Any YouTube video
• The free plan limits only daily watch time and how much you practice. Pro removes those limits
• Cancel anytime in Google Play

What’s new

Finish a video and your new words are ready to practice — nothing you hear gets lost. Plus fixes for connection errors, the video player after the app was in the background, and a crash in subtitles. We update PlayLingo every week.
