fig. 03 — remember it

Better than Anki. No cards to type.

Everything you save turns into a flashcard on its own. Spaced repetition brings each card back right before you'd forget it, so new words stay with you.

  • Made from your own French: the word, an explanation at your level, and the sentence where you met it
  • Nothing to plan. Open Révision and today's cards are already waiting
  • Paced to you. Tap Easy and it waits longer, tap Difficult and it comes back sooner

fig. 04 — why it's called lazy

The more you use it, the more it's yours

There are no lessons to get through and no streak to protect. You use Lazy French when French gets in your way: a text from your landlord, a TCF reading passage, a sign at the clinic.

Every sentence you look up becomes part of your deck. Your reviews are built from that deck, so the app gets more useful the longer you use it.

Most appsA course someone else wrote. You need motivation to open it.
Lazy FrenchYour own French. You open it because you need it.

“The more I use it, the more I love it. Other apps, I was very motivated at the beginning. Now I don't want to open them.”
