About Learn New Languages - Shadowfy
You've studied a language for years, but when it's time to speak, the words won't come out. You understand more than you can say. And the textbook dialogues? Nothing like how people actually talk. Shadowfy fixes exactly that. It turns any text you love into speaking practice: news, stories, song lyrics, a page from a novel. A natural, lifelike voice reads it aloud, and you repeat right after it, sentence by sentence, until the words come out on their own. That's shadowing: the listen-and-repeat technique interpreters have used for decades to sound fluent and natural. Shadowfy makes it effortless. HOW IT WORKS 1. Paste any text in the language you're learning 2. Listen to a natural voice read it, sentence by sentence 3. Follow the three-layer subtitles and repeat out loud 4. Tap any word for an instant explanation 5. Record yourself and compare with the original FEATURES • Your content: practice with anything you actually want to read • Natural, lifelike voices in 21 languages, male & female, adjustable speed • Three-layer subtitles with translations in your native language • Tap-to-look-up: instant word cards with meaning, pronunciation, synonyms and usage • Shadowing mode: auto-pause after each sentence, record your voice, A/B compare • Discover feed: curated articles, dialogues and stories for every level (A1–B2) • Smart review that brings your saved words back at the right time • Dark reading mode for focused, comfortable practice • Interface available in 20 languages LANGUAGES YOU CAN PRACTICE English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Polish, Greek, Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish, Arabic, Hindi, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai and Vietnamese. FREE & PRO Shadowfy is free to download and practice with every day. Shadowfy Pro gives you the full experience: 5 imports a day (up to 3,000 characters each), unlimited word explanations and unlimited saved words. Just $4.99/month or $39.99/year (prices may vary by region). Payment is charged to your Apple ID account.
