It supports Hindi! I haven't had any feedback from a Hindi native nor learner. If there's any feedback you can give, even if its to say the app is shit I would appreciate your take.

I have a test account and demo video I'm working on. I'll shoot it over later this week when I have one or the other so you can check it out without commitment or data concerns.

Thanks for the feedback!

Hey William, I guess I didn't get exactly what it was from the homepage. I signed up and the service is awesome. I like how you can pick a word and get sentences made for you, that is really nice and does improve over the Anki experience. My only immediate feedback is that it would be nice to click on a single word and hear it instead of the whole sentence. Very well done.

However, I am concerned that it is free. Am I the product?

Right makes sense Duolingo has that feature as well.

Its free - I don't have plans to monetize this app. Its a passion project and at the moment costs me less than $30 a month to run. Its been a heap of fun to scale / market past what I do in my job day to day.

One more bit of feedback! It would be great if I could delete a word from my deck. Thanks again!

You can delete cards if you review a card, flip the back and click the trashcan icon on the upper left hand side.

Ideally users are relying on the spaced repetition algorithm and should see cards they know less frequently rather than removing them from their deck.
