We all know the secret to mastering a new language is consistency. Learning a bit every day quickly adds up and it’s much more practical and sustainable than cramming in hours at a time!
That's why we created the Drops widget, your new language learning assistant that gives you daily reminders to keep your streak alive and your skills sharp. Our widget is currently available for all iOS users, and it’s the best way to make language learning a daily habit.
Ready to make sure you never miss a day? Here’s how to get the Drops widget on your home screen in just a few simple steps:
Now, you’ll have a daily reminder to keep your streak going and your language game strong.
Science tells us we remember more when we revisit information over time, rather than cramming it all at once. When you come back to content on a different day, your brain has to work harder to recall what you learned, which is actually a good thing. That retrieval strengthens the memory and makes it stick. This process is called spaced repetition, and it’s one of the most effective ways to learn vocabulary.
Nothing feels better than seeing your progress every day. Hitting smal daily milestones will keep you pumped to learn more, and make you feel proud at how much your streak has grown. Motivation is like a snowball. It starts small and before you know it, you’re on a roll!
Learning a language takes time, and trying to learn too much in one go can feel exhausting. When you commit to daily learning, you quickly clock up the hours without feeling overwhelmed. Just think, learning for 20 minute adds up to almost 2.5 hours a week!
Making progress is all about practice, practice, practice. Daily exposure to your new language helps you internalize the patterns, words, and grammar, so using them feels more natural. Staying consistent with your daily lessons is one of many ways to immerse yourself in the target language.
With the Drops widget, you’ll remember your language practice every time you check your phone. And practicing every day means getting better with every day! You’ll also get that wonderful feeling each time you see your streak go. Add the Drops widget to your home screen today and get your streak on!
"Love my fun language learning and practice with daily Drops sessions, and monthly Challenges to participate in, and quiz mode to test contextual learning - brilliant! So much thought, consideration and inclusivity has gone into the design and function of this app, I can't praise it highly enough."
"Great little learning app! I've learned at least 5-10 new words in Spanish in my first 5 minutes. Easy to pick up and thorough."
"Great language learning app! It helps you get daily words done in a short amount of time. I would highly recommend using drops to learn whatever language you want to learn."
"What an amazing app! I’ve tried several apps for language learning and I cannot recommend Drops enough. I don’t know how a short Drops session can teach me as much as 1 hour+ of focused use of other apps, it’s like magic."
"Amazing language learning tool. Excellent app for increasing vocabulary in your foreign language of choice. Useful for beginner, intermediate, and advanced learners. The repetition of the words makes them much easier to remember, and without the hassle of making your own flash cards. I have used Drops for two years now and have seen great results."
"Very engaging way of learning Yoruba in a stimulating way. Will be using to learn myself and to teach my child!"
"Less than a week in but using this alone with the popular one babbel working on German. When using just one app I got bored, babbel is not as fun. So using both at once actually let's my adhd do its thing but I still focused since I can switch easily between both apps and work in different areas. Also I like the quick little sessions makes me feel like I actually did something."
"So engaging. I speak Spanish well, but often forget words in conversation that I know I should know. This game is fun and quickly brings back vocabulary I may have put in the back of my brain after not using it for awhile. Case in point: I spent 11 years in construction, then went back to teaching in English and/or Spanish depending on the teacher/student"
"Amazing app"
