Lesen.
to read
Your novel, today's news, that letter from the Amt. Paste a text, drop a link, or snap a photo, and it opens as comfortable reading at your level.
Hören.
to listen
Ten voices from Hamburg to Zürich, each with its own character. Slow a sentence to 0.75×, replay it, shadow it with the screen locked.
…and six more in the app.
Verstehen.
to understand
Tone, idioms, the small words that change the meaning. Reading Lobster translates between German and your language at the level of meaning, whichever your language is. Word cards come explained the same way.
Fangen.
to catch
Tap a word to catch it as a card with its own context. Train your catch in a light trainer: hear it, recall it, write it. Each card returns until it sticks, and the learned percentage grows.
Stories, articles and classics curated for each level from B1 to C2. Open one and it comes with audio, translations and catchable words.
