About this app

Der, die or das? Stop guessing.

Learn German articles and vocabulary with flashcards designed for short, daily practice. Whether you are a complete beginner or preparing for B2, pick your level and start learning German in minutes a day.

Learn German articles, not just words
Every German noun comes with its article. Learn the noun and the article together, the way natives use them, so "der Apfel" becomes one memory instead of two.

There ARE rules for der, die and das
German learners are told there is no logic behind German articles and that you must memorise everything by heart. That is not true. Real patterns exist, and the app reveals them as you play, so you can guess new nouns correctly the first time.

Speak it out loud
Reading German vocabulary is not enough. Hear every noun spoken in German, then say the article and the noun out loud (for example "Der Apfel") and let speech recognition check you.

Struggling with certain nouns?
Mark them as favourites and review them more often. Favourites work offline, so you can practise German on the metro, on a plane or anywhere without a connection.

Build a daily habit
Quick repetitions, daily streaks and reminders keep you coming back. A few minutes a day beats one long session a month.

Vocabulary for your level
Words are split into categories and difficulty levels, from everyday basics such as food, family, house and travel, to advanced vocabulary. Learn at the pace that fits you.

Ratings and reviews

I love this, except for one crucial thing: the end of the word often doesn't display, which is critical to guessing the gender. Apparently, the display for each word is slightly the wrong size for my Pixel, so at first the words display properly, but as I go through them, more and more of the ending of the word is cut off. I can see the ending after I have guessed the gender and the screen slides to the next word, but by then, it's too late. I tried resizing my screen & turning my phone--no joy.

This is a very useful learning aid, and the aesthetics are excellent! I would suggest several improvements: 1. When showing a noun for the first time, show its gender as well, but don't count it as a point. 2. When a mistake is made, show more of the text of the tip. At the moment I press "more" and get the full list of gender rules, instead of THE rule that was relevant in this particular case.

overall, im really enjoying this! im using it to help with my vocabulary alongside my german course in college. I'm only giving four stars because there's no option to search through cards to add them to your favorites! i think this would be a valuable addition for us students who need to focus on specific words for our exams and such! it's hard to get everything i need into my favorites otherwise.
