@andrei_savchuk As for me, it was a great experience to be a part of Linga and to solve my own pain of constantly switching between e-reader and dictionary. With Linga I can now read without distraction and improve my vocabulary by reading favourite books.

Great launch, congrats! Have you considered adding the latest news articles for those who cannot concentrate much on a whole book( + good retention-wise)?

@ivan_somov Hi Ivan! Thanks for your feedback. Actually there are already latest news from several popular sources such as BBC, Medium, New York Time and others. Later we plan to expand the list and add the possibility to add your own.

@dazhin_denis You are right! Found them in the library section. Also, it seems that there are not many A1/A2 books in Spanish. Maybe adding some books for children can help with that (such books are filled with useful A1-B2 words and vocabulary)
Denis Dazhin
Maker
@ivan_somov We constantly expanding our Library, but frankly speaking it's not an easy task to find free books in all supported languages. That is why we have an option for users to download their own books and not to be limited by Linga library.

@dazhin_denis I understand. Thanks for the responses. Sorry, for being too suggestive 😂 but I have another good suggestion. Please, add El Mundo newspaper alongside El Pais for those who learn Spanish. It covers A2 level more and is much easier to read than El Pais. Thanks again for your product, very excited about it!

@ivan_somov We appreciate your feedback and suggestions. We will try to add El Mundo in the list

I'm a native Spanish speaker and I've been using linga for about a year to improve my English and French and I can say that this app has totally helped me. I love reading, so I find it really helpful that I can upload all the books I want, for me it is the perfect app as in the past I had to use different apps for my readings; I had to use one epub reader, then another dictionary app and then another app to create flashcards but linga has all that together so I really really love it. As I mentioned I've been using this app for a long time, so there are somethings I would love to see in the future if they are possible: - To edit the flashcards when studying them (because sometimes when I'm reading I don't save the right translation according the context and I only realize it when I'm studying the word) - to add my own pictures or short clips to the words, as well to have exercises with those pictures (maybe matching the picture with its meaning) Thank you for this wonderful app 😊😊 10/10

@lia_japones Thanks for your feedback. It's priceless, especially from our users who is already using Linga for a long time. Customising flash-cards is a really good idea. As for pictures - it's already in our short list of future improvements.

@lia_japones Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience with Linga! We're thrilled to hear how much our app has helped you. Your suggestions for enhancing the flashcards and add personal images align with our vision. Both of these features are already on our development roadmap for future updates. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we're definitely looking forward to incorporating these improvements to make your learning experience even better. Thanks again for your support and for being a part of the Linga community.

💡 Bright idea
Wow! That sounds really cool! It's great that there's an iPad version, that's handy. It would be great to add a "share progress with a friend" feature or are you already planning to do that?

@diana_sfera Thanks Diana. Not only a progress, but also quotes and notes from books. We have big plans and a lot of ideas to add in future.
Andrei Savchuk
Maker
@diana_sfera Thank you! Yes, this is on our list for future enhancements. We're planning to add more statistics on progress, the ability to share your progress with friends, leaderboards to introduce a competitive element, ratings and reviews for books, and much more.
Diana Akhmetova
@andrei_savchuk awesome! You could also add - the student does the grammar homework, and you as a service give live feedback from the teacher. Let me explore my ideas in your service 🤩😅congrats on the launch, good luck!

@andrei_savchuk @diana_sfera There is a community chat of Linga users in Telegram where everyone can share their feedback and ideas. We always use it to shape our roadmap.

@diana_sfera Thank you a lot! We thought about it, but there are a lot of requests from users and we need to prioritize tasks somehow. But we would really appreciate any your suggestion and will be glad to hear the details!

@pan_chen Thank you! This is our main goal - to help people immerse themselves in the wonderful world of books and promote deeper understanding, also, to help in learning languages, because every language is beautiful in its own way in our opinion.

💡 Bright idea
Just an amazing idea for learning new languages! Also, the fact that you can track your progress is so useful; not many platforms have that. I think the best way to improve language skills is through reading. Congrats, guys, I love your idea!

@hai_ta1 Thanks! We never claim Linga is the only tool you need to learn a new language, but still reading is an important part of the process and here we are to help and make it easier.

@hai_ta1 Thank you for your enthusiastic feedback! While it's true that many platforms offer progress tracking, we believe there's still room for innovation in this area. Our goal is to bring a unique approach and vision to how progress tracking can be integrated into language learning, enhancing the experience beyond what's currently available. We're excited about exploring this further in the near future and are committed to making our platform not just another option, but a truly impactful tool for many learners.
