This is a great, and b/c pulling from podcasts, can handle hard languages (eg. Hungarian). Smart. Some thoughts:
- Buttons to click thru examples for words, waiting is slow
- Partial load of podcast screen (for speed)
- Playback controls for podcasts would be nice (skip, ff, 1.5x)
- Define word in hover would probably be faster/more seamless + pronunciation
- Search bar for known words + alphabetical.. (OR if heard N times -> known)
Also, get the avoidance of gamification, but would like some sort of progress tracking (mins listened, lexicon, % of top 1k frequency). Will play some more when signups work.
