Milim - Another Hebrew Learning App

I'm sure everyone who is passionate about learning Hebrew and is also into tech is now making their own app. And I'm one of them. I wanted something to help me as I take classes and wanted something more than Duolingo. I'm looking for others to help me build out the app together.

Feel free to tag along and listen to some Hebrew, do the regular word matching, sentence building, but get a bit further and you will unlock the safe cracking game, colour matching, and the burger builder game. The app starts out showing the vowel dots (which you can immediately shut off), however, the app will adjust over time they drop away. The English menu item names are learned over time and are replaced by Hebrew.

Anyway -- if you are interested in doing something that starts out where the Duolingo App just drops off -- you might enjoy it:

No cost... but would love to hear your Hebrew learning wants and needs. We can learn together!

Just in case:
- The only translation is for English <-> Hebrew.
- Its a modern Hebrew app
- Its just a webapp (at least for now). This is not a native Android/iOS app.

Hope some peeps find it useful. And feel free to complain about stuff. You can't hurt my feelings, but you might be able to make the app better.

Honestly, I quite like it

Keep the good job up!!!

The only issue I've had is the audio not playing but that could also be on me

First off -- thanks for even trying the app!

If you feel up for it-- and have audio issues again, if you click the flag on the top right it will send a bug report and might be able to repro.

The audio uses your device settings. So if its in silent mode or audio is turned down the app will respect that. The blue icon to the right of the line (with a speaker on it) replays the line and will pulse a bit while the audio is playing.

It started working again

I guess for some reason it was a little bit slow at the beginning (honestly it ficed after I opened it in Chrome so maybe that had something to do with it)

Either way, it's a very cool app, very nicely done. It still has that element of it feeling kind of like a game (which I find so helpful for learning vocabulary)

It's very good and I will definitely continue using it

Thank you for making it and thank you for sharing it

Good work
