Looping playback has revolutionized my language learning journey. I'm making rapid progress. Binaural audio processing really works. Less fatigue during long listening sessions. The app supports background playback, which is a must for me. Middle-of-the-road experience. The audiobook was fine—good narration, decent story—but it didn’t leave a lasting impression. If you’re looking for something low-commitment, this works.
