Daily goals & streaks
How do daily goals work, and can I change mine?
Your default daily goal is 10 minutes of listening plus 10 minutes of shadowing. You can adjust it, and completing it extends your streak.

A daily goal gives you a small, clear target for each day so learning becomes a habit.
The default goal
- Listen for 10 minutes.
- Shadow for 10 minutes.
Complete both to finish your goal for the day and extend your streak. Daily goals and streaks are included on every plan, including Free.
Change your goal
- Open your daily goal in Podling.
- Adjust the listening and shadowing minutes.
- Save your changes.
Choose a goal you can reach even on a busy day. It’s better to hit a small goal every day than to miss a big one.
When does a day start and end?
Days follow your phone’s local time zone. A new day begins at midnight where you are.
Ideas for reaching your goal
- Listen on your commute, then shadow a few sentences when you get home.
- Use the same episode for both parts: listen first, then shadow your favourite section.
