What is it about?
DeutschBlox is a German-learning app designed to make absorbing new vocabulary easy and fun. This app uses several language-learning principles to enhance your experience - words are broken down into brightly-coloured parts, which builds connections to previously seen words, and exploits your brain’s natural synesthesia, allowing you to associate words with unique patterns of colours. DeutschBlox also makes use of spaced repetition - each word is shown at increasing intervals, which maximises your brain’s ability to absorb new information.
