Madeleine is a calm, audio-first French vocabulary app for iPhone. Learn the words and phrases people actually use, written and spoken together, with lifelike French audio and adaptive review that brings each one back before you forget it. The course is finite and finishable—no streaks, points, leaderboards, account, or server. Everything stays on your device.
Love the no-pressure vibe and the audio-first approach. One thing that would really help me is an offline mode indicator or a quick toggle to download lessons for specific topics, so I can prep a few themes before a flight without worrying about spotty wifi.
@barangm2r the app is actually fully offline by default, so no downloads needed 🙏🏼
Would love a "listen while idle" mode that cycles through recent words in the background, no screen required. Perfect for passive review during a commute.
@cansuohtl great idea, we'll work on this!
honestly the no streak thing is refreshing, but a simple weekly progress summary would help me see what i actually learned without feeling pressured. like just show me which words stuck and which ones i keep forgetting so i can focus my review there. would be a nice middle ground between guilt-free and informative
honestly this sounds really nice, exactly the kind of low pressure app i’d actually keep using. one thing that would make it even better for me is a quick pronunciation check using the mic, where it shows you how close your spoken french was to the native clip. would help tie the listening practice to actually producing the words myself.
The lifelike audio really makes a difference, hearing the actual phrasing instead of robotic clips helped things stick way faster. Love that it just works offline without making me sign up for yet another account.
finally a vocab app that just lets me listen and learn without nagging me about streaks. the audio sounds genuinely like a real person, which makes a big difference when i'm trying to pick up the rhythm.
Love the no-pressure vibe and the audio-first approach, that combo is really refreshing. One thing that would help me stick with it: a quick offline pronunciation check where I record myself saying a phrase and the app gently flags where my accent drifts from the native audio. Would make the listening practice feel more interactive without turning it into a game.
