Evoday 2023 for iOS

Maker

Hey Product Hunters! 👋 I’ve been working on Lokas in my spare time for 3 years while learning iOS development, and 2 weeks ago I quit my job to try and become an indie iOS developer 😱. So I think it’s time to show it to the community! 👨‍💻 💡 Idea I live in Barcelona, and studying Spanish vocabulary requires a lot of motivation. So I decided to build a vocabulary-learning tool myself, that would use spaced-repetition. Since I recently realized that I still had difficulties conjugating verbs after 2 years in Spain 🇪🇸, I also added that to the app! 🤔 What sets Lokas apart? There are tons of great language apps out there, so here are maybe a few good aspects: 1. It’s not easy. This sounds like a flaw, but it is actually great for anyone that doesn’t need to be babysitted with images to click or simplified keyboards: you have to translate the word perfectly, without any help, using the normal keyboard, and you can’t forget an accent or type “un” instead of “una“ -word gender is important in Spanish. 2. It focuses on what really matters: about 2,000 words make 80% of all texts, so the lists I created contain the most frequent words. Yes, it is less fun to learn how to translate “however” rather than “the giraffe” 🦒, but you will rarely see the latter in newspaper articles or books. 3. Oh and also, I spent hours on those color gradients 😎 😇 What do I get for free? The app is free and everyone can learn all vocabulary lists, and review them with the spaced-repetition algorithm. Those who can afford to upgrade to Pro (9$) and support my indie dev challenge get access to the conjugation feature (and more soon). 👨‍💻 What’s next? Over the next few weeks, I’m gonna add the possibility to create your own lists, add many more tenses (past, future, conditional, subjonctive…), add vocabulary lists and much more. I’ve got tons of ideas but am super interested in yours! Thank you PH! Kevin PS: To anticipate the dreaded question, it is unfortunately not available on Android. As a solo developer with limited time, I have to focus on one platform at the moment.
