Show HN: I made an iOS app blocker that helps you learn new words
apps.apple.com
I created Gobble, an iOS app designed to block distracting apps until you complete your flashcard reviews.
I’ve been learning languages on and off for the last 10 years, and one of my favorite activities is reviewing flashcards. I know this can be a huge drain, but it is a highly efficient way to learn new words [0].
Flashcards aren't a silver bullet, but I find that I can review hundreds of them if I break the sessions into shorter intervals throughout the day. The problem with reviewing flashcards on my phone, though, is that while it's an amazing tool, it’s also incredibly easy to get distracted by other apps.
Right now, the app includes the full N5 Japanese vocab list, as well as basic content for French and Spanish, with more content on the way.
I'd love to hear your feedback!
