Cringe

What Cringe is

Cringe is a language-learning app with adaptive AI lessons, available on iOS, Android, and the web. Its conversation tutor lets learners speak in full sentences and gives feedback on pronunciation, grammar, and confidence. The app supports more than 50 languages, including Welsh and Swahili. It tracks words learners get wrong or forget, then uses spaced repetition to shape later review and the next day’s lesson. Lesson length adjusts to the time available; the site reports an 11-minute median daily session. Offline mode is listed, and the web app can be installed as a progressive web app with offline content stored on the device. Cringe has a free tier and says it has no ads, including on that tier. Its privacy policy says it does not sell personal data or use it for advertising, and users can access, export, or request deletion of account data. The policy also says the app is for users aged 13 and older, and that requested account-data deletion is completed within 30 days.
