Lilu - Learn Mandarin by scrolling short native videos

by•
Lilu turns the short videos you'd scroll anyway into Mandarin practice. Every clip is real speech by a native speaker, with a transcript synced word by word. Tap any word to see pinyin and meaning, hear it in context and save it to your vocabulary. Search your saved words by hanzi, pinyin or meaning. Paid app, no free tier. iPhone only.

Hi Product Hunt, I'm Ilya, a solo developer in Bali, and this is Lilu. You probably scroll short videos anyway. Lilu points that habit at Mandarin. Every clip is real speech from a native speaker, with a transcript synced word by word. Tap a word to see pinyin and meaning, hear it in context, and save it to your vocabulary, which you can search by hanzi, pinyin or meaning. Two things up front. It's iPhone only. And it's paid, with no free tier (the yearly plan has a 7-day trial). If you'd like longer, ask in a comment and I'll send you a code for 3 free months of the monthly plan, by message, not here. One per person. It renews at the regular price after that unless you cancel. What I'd like most is honest feedback. Is the clip level right for you? What would you want to see in the transcript? What's missing? Thanks for looking.
