Hey Product Hunters 👋
I built Dropling because I kept failing at the "sit down and study for an hour" thing. Not because I didn't care — I just never had an hour that wasn't already spoken for.
So instead of blocking out time, Dropling shows up in the time you already have. A short question appears right on your lock screen — you glance, answer, done. No unlocking, no opening an app, no losing your place in whatever you were doing. It finds the fifteen seconds you didn't know you had, instead of asking you to create thirty minutes you don't.
Tell it what you want to learn — a language, a certification, trivia for a hobby, whatever — and it turns that into questions that show up spread through your day, just without the part where you have to remember to open
an app.
Would love your feedback, especially if — like me — you've got a graveyard of abandoned learning apps on your home screen. This is my attempt at building the one that doesn't end up there.
Love the lock screen approach, it really does remove the friction that kills most learning apps for me. One thing I'd love to see is a quick "snooze until later" option on the question itself, so if it pops up while I'm in a meeting I can push it back five minutes without having to open the app and dig through settings.

@erolalaktpsz Good news — that's pretty much how it already works, just without a button: if a question catches you at a bad moment, swipe it away and it quietly comes back after your chosen interval. Nothing expires, nothing piles up — the question just waits until you're ready. And if you're in a meeting with a Focus mode on, Dropling stays silent on its own. A dedicated snooze button right on the notification is an interesting idea though — something to think about. Thanks for trying it!
