Suggested technical details (for anyone curious)

If anyone’s interested in the stack: • Frontend: SwiftUI • Audio: internal cache layer + fallback TTS • Spaced repetition: hybrid SM2-like intervals • Import engine: CSV/TSV auto-detection • Offline mode: local fallback for review & audio playback

If you’re into language learning tools, I’d really appreciate your thoughts on: 1. How to improve onboarding 2. Whether spaced repetition feels too aggressive or too light 3. Ideas for making the audio features smarter

Thanks again for checking it out!
