NerLan plays the podcasts you learn from, then turns every episode into study material: an AI transcript synced to the audio, a review handout, translations, and shadowing practice.
For iPhone and iPad. Also available for Android.
One name, two readings — and both are true.
Ner·Lan is near language. That's the distance the app tries to close — not how many words you know, but how far you still are from understanding the sentence you just heard.
The six letters are exactly N + LEARN — nothing left over, nothing borrowed. And those five letters are the five things the app does.
Add any show from Apple Podcasts or an RSS feed — Japanese, Korean, English, French, Spanish, whatever you're learning — and keep them together in one list.
One tap transcribes an episode into clean sentences. The line being spoken stays highlighted and centred while you listen.
A review sheet per episode: summary, grammar points, example sentences, and a vocabulary table with pronunciation.
Translate the transcript into your language and read it beside the original — or on its own.
Loop a sentence a set number of times, record your own reading, and play it back to compare.
Download episodes, auto-cache what you stream, sync study material through iCloud, and keep widgets and Siri shortcuts for daily practice.
Every podcast you're studying in one list.
Paste an Apple Podcasts or RSS link — that's the whole subscription flow.
A show's full feed, newest first, with favorite and download at hand.
Speed, repeat, skip — and one-tap transcript and handout.
The sentence being spoken stays highlighted and centred while the audio plays.
Every sentence paired with its translation, generated once and cached.
Loop one sentence, record your reading, and play it back against the original.
Summary, grammar points, examples, and vocabulary — built from the transcript.
Explicit downloads and auto-cached streams, filterable and grouped.
Use an OpenAI key — or point transcription and handouts at your own compatible server.
