Turn language learning into a daily habit

Drops will help you turn language learning into a sustainable daily habit. Since it only requires 5 minutes a day to practice, it’s easy to keep up and make progress. And even if you miss a day, don’t worry – you won’t lose your score streak.

Personalized learning journey

After you’ve learned 50 words, you can then visit the Review Dojo, a special section in Drops designed to reinforce knowledge. There, you can test what you’ve learned with our spaced-repetition algorithm. Based on your performance, it will flag which specific words need some more practice.

“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.”

“I like that you can switch between different subjects and topics constantly and it’s really easy to learn a lot of vocabulary very quickly! This works perfect for me because I can learn a lot of words but then practice sentence structure with my grandmother whose from Croatia”
