Five ways to progress, one app

Each mode tackles the language from a different angle. Quiz, Talk and Listening sharpen your Coach; Vocabulary schedules your reviews automatically.

Talk Mode

Speak out loud with Mio

A fluid, real-time conversation with Mio, who listens to what you say and corrects you gently. Like talking to a patient friend.

  • Real-time voice recognition
  • Corrections tuned to your answers
  • Mio slows down when you hesitate
Quiz Mode

Exercises that adapt to you

The algorithm detects what you've mastered and what still trips you up. The more you play, the more targeted the questions become.

  • Multiple choice, drag-to-match, fill-in
  • Targeted error review
  • 5 minutes is enough for a session
Vocabulary Mode

Spaced repetition, but gentler

Every word comes back at the perfect moment to settle into your long-term memory. Cards slide, flip, and stick.

  • Adaptive spaced repetition
  • Themed decks (travel, work, …)
  • Every word heard in a native voice
Listening Mode

Audio stories at your pace

Listen to short stories told by native voices. A multiple-choice quiz at the end to check comprehension, a full transcript so you miss nothing.

  • Full transcript
  • End-of-story comprehension quiz
  • Short stories calibrated A1 → C2
Lessons Mode

A clear path, A1 → C2

A structured CEFR progression so you always know where you stand. Each lesson blends grammar, vocabulary, and practice.

Mio, your coach

A personal coach that watches over you, quietly

While you play, talk and listen, Mio tracks your strengths and weak spots, then prepares a daily program tuned to what's tripping you up. No more guessing what to review.

Mio saysYour mission: the post office in Rome 🎯

One mission a day

Every day, a real situation in a real place: sending a parcel in Rome, asking for directions in Lisbon, booking a table in Tokyo. You hear the scene, keep three phrases, then say them to Mio. 520 situations, tuned to your level.

The Daily Journey

2 to 4 short stops, picked from your weak spots — and Mio tells you why it chose each one. You do, you tick, you're out.

Write to Mio

Ask how you're doing, get a sentence translated, or chat in the language you're learning. A trip or an exam coming up? Mio makes it your goal.

Strengths & weak spots, by topic

78 topics (grammar, vocab, connectors) tracked from A1 to C2. You see what you've nailed, what still resists, and your recent mistakes in context.

New · Every word is tappable

Stuck on a word? Tap it.

In lessons, exercises, stories and your chats with Mio, the words of the language you're learning are underlined. One tap, and Mio translates them in their sentence.

Mio saysTo say you're running late: Llego tarde.
tarde
late

“Llego tarde.” — I’m running late.

Keep12 words in your notebook

Translated in its sentence

Not a dictionary entry: what the word means here, its base form, the whole sentence translated, and the pronunciation to listen to.

Your notebook fills up

“Keep” puts the word in your notebook. It comes back in your reviews just before it fades, and you can remove it whenever you like.

Review from your home screen

On iPhone, the widget shows your streak and the cards due: one tap and the review opens. “Add a word” lets you ask Mio how to say what you're missing.

Free: one word translated a day. Premium: unlimited.

How it works

Three steps, zero friction

A few questions at signup — your level, what holds you back, your moment of the day — then a first try, and your plan is ready. No 20-question form.

Pick your language

EN, FR, ES, JA, ZH… 13 in total. You can track several in parallel — Mio keeps up.

Talk 10 min a day

As long as a coffee break. A Talk session in the morning, a Listen story at night. No guilt.

Progress with Mio

Mio watches your mistakes, adjusts difficulty, and surfaces reviews at just the right moment. You always know what to work on next.

Gamification

Mechanics that bring you back (without holding you hostage)

What early users are saying

Feedback from the people using Mio daily.

“I usually hate language apps — I give up after 3 days. With Mio I've kept going for 2 months. Talk mode changes everything — I finally dared to speak out loud.”

Frequently asked

Straight answers

Didn't find yours? Email us at contact@miotutor.app — we reply within 24h.

Does Mio really work in 10 minutes a day?
Yes — the key is consistency, not volume. Short sessions trigger memory consolidation more effectively than one long weekend session. 10 minutes a day is the default goal we suggest.
What's the difference between Mio and other apps?
Talk mode. Most apps offer scripted 'dialogues' where you type the right answer. Mio has you actually speak out loud, listens to your answer, interrupts if needed, corrects gently. It's closer to a personal tutor than a game.
Can I learn several languages at once?
Yes — all 13 languages are available on Free and Premium. You can change your target language from your profile at any time. Your daily energy is shared across languages, not per language.
Is my voice data stored?
No. Audio is analyzed in real time for feedback, then destroyed. Only anonymized metrics (duration, accuracy) are kept to adapt your level. Full details in our privacy policy.
If I skip a day, do I lose my streak?
Not necessarily. Every week, a free freeze protects your streak if you miss a day; it recharges 7 days after it's used. The daily chest can also give you spare ones, up to 2. Miss more than one day and your streak restarts at 1: the goal is to have you come back, not to guilt-trip you.
Does it work offline?
No — Mio needs a connection. Stories and exercises are generated live for your level, and Talk is a real-time conversation. You can practice anywhere you have data or Wi-Fi.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes, directly from App Store or Play Store settings. No questions, no friction. The free trial (7 days, on both plans) is commitment-free.
What is the daily mission?
A real situation, in a real city, to pull off in the language you're learning: ordering at a café in Naples, sorting out a room problem in Berlin… You hear the scene first, keep the three phrases that matter in a quiz, then act it out aloud with Mio (Premium). 520 situations across the 13 languages, pitched from A1 to B1, with a new one every day.
Can I translate a word I don't understand?
Yes. Everywhere in the app, the words of the language you're learning are underlined: tap one and Mio gives you its meaning in the sentence, the whole sentence translated and the pronunciation. “Keep” adds it to your notebook, and it comes back in your reviews. One word a day on Free, unlimited on Premium.

Mio is waiting for your first session.
