About MyWika

Built for the words
and the languages
no one else will

Most apps decide what you learn, and which languages are worth teaching. MyWika hands both of those choices back to you.

The languages no one else builds for

The big apps teach the same dozen popular languages. If your language is small, endangered, or indigenous, you are simply not on the roadmap — and you never will be.

MyWika starts from the opposite place. Any language works. Type your own cards, or ask the community for a starter pack for a language that doesn't have one yet. Nothing has to be popular to be worth keeping.

A language is how people reach each other

Learning a language isn't really about vocabulary. It's about being able to say something to someone — to ask, to answer, to be understood.

That's why MyWika is built around the sentences you actually need to say, not a curriculum's idea of what a beginner should know. The words that matter are the ones that let you reach the people in your life.

We learn together

Every card you fix, every word you break down, every sentence a native speaker confirms — that knowledge doesn't stay locked on your device.

It rides along when you share a pack, so what you teach MyWika becomes something the next person learns. A community of people getting a little better, together.

Your words. Your language. Your way.

Add the words you hear at the dinner table. Keep the pronunciation notes that help you. Sort your cards how your brain sorts them. Nobody else's list, and no algorithm deciding what you see next.

It works wherever you do

Install MyWika to your home screen and it keeps working with no connection at all — on a plane, on a mountain, wherever your signal gives up.

Your cards live on your device. No account, no sign-up wall, nothing to cancel.

The people behind it

This started as a personal project

MyWika was built by people who needed it — to learn the words that mattered in their own families, in languages the big apps were never going to teach. The fuller story is on its way.
