Learner Guide

Learner guide

Fluenough is a drilling app for the basics of a language: words, saying them, hearing them and a little grammar. Each answer you give decides when that word comes back. It runs offline once a language's decks are downloaded. There is no account.

This guide says what you see and what to do. It does not cover how the app is built: for that see Architecture.

The four tabs

Tab	What it is for
Today	The day's lesson, the words due, quick revision and a fact of the day.
Decks	Your courses, their paths, units and decks.
Progress	Reviews, what you remember, your streak.
Settings	Languages, activities, look, backups, updates and more.

Features that are not on yet

Some features are built into the screens but not switched on in a version. They are shown dimmed, with a "Feature incoming" badge, and tapping them says "Feature incoming. Not in this version yet." This is on purpose (ADR-0008). The Roadmap says what is coming and when.

Text size

The app makes text bigger up to 1.4 times the normal size (#505). If your phone is set larger, the app is drawn at 1.4 times. Card text can be made larger on its own: see Profiles and settings.
