What it does

Stuck at B1-B2? Your vocabulary stops growing because your brain skips unknown words when context is enough. Booklex fixes this: → Read EPUB/PDF books in any language → Tap any word - instant translation, no app switching → Words save to your dictionary automatically → Review with flashcards, quizzes and tests → Fully offline. 50 languages supported. I'm an iOS developer who built this while learning Spanish. Read books you enjoy, learn words in context, grow your vocabulary naturally.

I think it is finally ready to share with this community! The idea is to introduce vocabulary and grammar whilst you read eBooks in your own language.

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
