What it does
Drops uses brief language-learning activities to practice words and phrases, with pronunciation and listening work.
Drops suits a small, repeatable vocabulary session. Choose a topic and rehearse words you want to use in everyday conversation, then bring them into speaking practice elsewhere. Grammar support is now listed for selected languages, so check your target language rather than expecting the same grammar content throughout the catalogue.
The current English help article limits free play to five minutes every ten hours, with topics unlocked in sequence. Premium removes the time limit and allows topic choice; monthly and annual plans renew, while lifetime access uses one payment. Review tools are listed for both tiers.
