The app: Learn Korean - Hangul & Words
Nothing on this site is held back for the app. Every letter, every one of the 380 syllables and every recording is free here. The app exists for the part a reference page cannot do — remembering what you have already learned and bringing it back at the right time.
Free. One optional purchase removes ads ($2.99).
What is only in the app
- It remembers where you stopped
- This site has no accounts, so it cannot. The app keeps your place across all 100 levels.
- Spaced review
- Words you got wrong come back at widening intervals until they stick, instead of being reviewed once and forgotten.
- A daily streak
- A count of consecutive days studied, with a freeze you earn from daily missions so one missed day does not wipe it.
- A course, not a reference
- 20 stages of 5 levels each, ordered so that each one builds on the last — plus a word challenge and a sentence course. This site gives you the same letters and syllables, but laid out to look things up rather than to work through.

About the recordings
The alphabet and vocabulary audio — the recordings you hear on this site — were made by native Korean speakers in Korea. The app also contains a sentence course whose audio is synthesized, and it is labelled as such inside the app. We keep the two apart rather than describing everything as native audio.

Questions people ask
- Is the app free? +
- Yes. Every stage and lesson is free, with no content locked behind a purchase. There is one optional in-app purchase that removes ads, at $2.99.
- What does the app have that this site does not? +
- Four things a static page cannot do: it remembers where you stopped, it brings words back for review at spaced intervals, it counts a daily streak, and it lays the material out as a 100-level course rather than a reference.
- Is the audio in the app the same as here? +
- For the alphabet and vocabulary, yes — the same recordings by native Korean speakers. The sentence course in the app uses synthesized audio, and the app labels it as such.
- What languages is the app available in? +
- The interface is available in 27 languages, so you can learn Korean through your own language rather than through English.
- Do I need an account? +
- No. There is no sign-up, and progress is stored on your device.
