Best Apps to Learn a Language by Reading Books

The best reading app is the one that matches your input. LingQ is strong for libraries, Readlang is strong for web text, Language Reactor is strong for subtitles, and WordZam is built for turning your own book page or article into active practice.

The four app types

  • Library apps for lots of graded/native content.
  • Web readers for click-to-translate and flashcards.
  • Subtitle tools for video immersion.
  • Active reading tools for reading, vocabulary, and speaking from your own text.

Where WordZam fits

WordZam is not trying to own every content library. It is for the page in front of you: a paperback, a PDF, a screenshot, an article, or pasted text.
