Daily goals
Twenty minutes a day, without thinking about it
Progress in a language comes from showing up. Podling's daily goal is small on purpose: listen for 10 minutes, shadow for 10. Do it, and your streak grows.
How it keeps you going
Two rings
One for listening, one for shadowing. Both fill automatically while you use the app.
Streaks
Complete your goal to extend your streak. Days follow your phone's local time zone.
Your goal, your pace
Busy week? Lower the target. Ready for more? Raise it.
Gentle reminders
Choose a reminder time that fits your commute or coffee — or none at all.
Made for you if…
- You start strong and drop off after a week.
- You learn best with a small routine you can fit into a commute.
- You like seeing progress add up.
