Description
In one line
Inkling is an iPhone app: a few terms a day, in two languages, each with a plain definition and one real sentence.
In three lines
Inkling turns the terms that go past on calls, in threads and in comment sections into cards: the term, a plain definition and one real sentence, in the language you read in and the one you are learning, side by side. The decks are already made — nothing to build, nothing to type in. No account, works offline, collects nothing.

It went past on a call. In a thread, in a video. Nobody stops a meeting to explain what a word means.
Open Inkling and a few of those terms are waiting as cards. Each card is the term itself, a plain definition, and one real sentence that shows how people use it — in your language and in the language you are learning, on the same card.
Every deck comes ready-made. One topic at a time, and you can change it whenever you want; the pace is 5, 10 or 20 new cards a day, or no limit.
You open a card, read the definition and the example, and mark it yourself: “I know it” or “Review”. A card marked for review stays in the set and comes up again until you mark it “I know it”. Cards you are done with go to your shelf, and Progress shows the count itself, not just a bar.
No streaks, no lives, no leaderboard. A skipped day costs nothing.
Every card exists in English, Russian, Japanese, Korean, French and Spanish. You choose the language you read in and the language you are learning, and both sit on the card at once.
Also in the app: a home screen widget with the day’s card, a reminder that brings a term to the lock screen, the term read out loud on a tap, search inside a deck, light and dark modes. Works offline: the cards are on the device, new ones arrive when there is a connection.
No account, no ads. The app collects nothing: no analytics, no data about you.
The definitions and the sentences are written by native speakers, not generated.
Inkling does not teach you a language. It gives you a small finished thing to read, and keeps bringing it back so it has a chance to stay.
