The EasyGeorgian app is out. You can get it for iPhone on the App Store and for Android on Google Play, it is free to download, and if you already have an EasyGeorgian account, everything you own is waiting behind the sign-in.
That is the announcement. Here is what actually shipped.
Everything from the web version
We had one rule for this project: the app had to be the whole thing. Not a companion app, not a stripped-down mobile edition.
So the app is EasyGeorgian, complete. The full audio course with all 50 lessons. The complete podcast course. Every flashcard deck, all 9,000+ cards, with the same spaced repetition schedule you have on the web, and your streak and XP come along too. If you stop an episode halfway through on your laptop, the app picks it up where you left it, and the other way around. One account, one progress, every screen.
Built for offline
Offline downloads have been the most requested feature since EasyGeorgian launched, and they are the reason this app exists.
Lessons and flashcard decks now have a download button. Tap it, and that lesson or that deck lives on your phone. The metro to Didube stops being dead time. A guesthouse in Svaneti with no Wi-Fi becomes a perfectly good classroom. The flight over is two full lessons if you pace yourself.
And offline study counts. This was the part we spent the most engineering time on, because a review session that quietly vanishes when your signal does is worse than no review session at all. Offline reviews are graded, your streak holds, your XP is recorded, and the moment your phone finds the internet again, everything syncs on its own. You never think about it.
If you already learn with us in the browser
Nothing changes unless you want it to. The web app is not going anywhere, and it stays the same product with the same features.
What you gain is convenience. An icon on your home screen, lessons that survive a tunnel, and your flashcards two taps away while you wait for your khinkali. Sign in once and you are exactly where you left off.
Getting the courses
The app is free, and a free account comes with a real free tier: the first audio lesson, the first episode of the podcast course, the full 56-minute alphabet video, and the first 100 cards of the 5,000-word deck.
For the full courses, it depends on your phone. On iPhone, the audio course, the podcast course and the 5,000-word deck are available directly in the app as in-app purchases. On Android, purchases happen on easygeorgian.com, and the moment you buy, the course unlocks in the app you are holding. Same account, same access, yours forever either way.
If you have been meaning to start Georgian, this is the lowest-friction version of that decision we have ever shipped. Download the app and do the free first lesson on your next commute. It starts with უკაცრავად (uk’atsravad), excuse me, which happens to be exactly the word you need to get off a crowded metro car.
