Ten minutes a day, and the words stay

Free, no card needed, works offline too.

What Kalima does
Reviews on a schedule
The SM-2 algorithm works out when a word is due again: today, in three days, or in a month.
Stories with translation
Twenty short texts from A1 to B2. Every sentence is translated, and every word can be opened right inside the text.
Works without a network
The app installs on your phone and opens without a connection. Answers reach the server once you are back online.
Progress you can see
Streaks, experience and badges show movement, not just how often you tapped.
Reviews at the right moment
Every time you recall a word correctly, the gap before the next review grows. A miss brings it back to the start.
