Language Story turns language learning into a story you play together.
Pick a short dialogue scenario in the language you're learning, get matched with a partner, and take turns recording your lines. Make choices at
branching moments to shape how the story unfolds. Build vocabulary and confidence by actually speaking — not just tapping flashcards.
WHY LANGUAGE STORY WORKS
• Real practice with a real person — not AI roleplay or solo drills
• Asynchronous — record when it's your turn, no scheduled calls required
• Bite-sized stories — 5 to 10 minute sessions that fit a coffee break
• Branching paths — your choices change what happens next
• Built around how adults actually learn: in context, with another voice on the line
HOW IT WORKS
1. Sign in and pick a language you're learning
2. Browse short stories matched to your level (A1 to C1)
3. Find a partner — either by accepting an open invite or sending one
4. Record your character's lines one at a time, in your target language
5. Get notified when your partner takes their turn
6. Make choices at branch points — your decisions reshape the story
7. Finish the story together and move to the next one
WHO IT'S FOR
• Adult learners stuck on the speaking gap
• Self-studiers who want practice with another human, not just an app
• Language exchange partners looking for more structure than free chat
• Anyone who learns better through stories than worksheets
What's new (v1.4.0)
• Voice reactions: tap the mic to record a short voice note in
response to your partner's lines.
• Text comments on reactions, alongside emoji.
• Phonetic mode: see romanized transcription under each line —
toggle per language in Profile → My Languages. Great for Greek,
Arabic, Persian, Japanese, and other non-Latin scripts.
• Persian (Farsi) added as a language to learn.
• Spanish app interface (auto-detected from your device language).
• Smoother first-time experience: a guided micro-story shows you
how it works in under a minute.
• "Explore stories" now surfaces the most recently published stories.
• Smarter notification taps: messages open the chat thread,
reactions open the story line.
