How a lesson works in an audio course

In an audio course you hear a prompt, pause and answer aloud, then hear the right answer to compare. Drawn to explain the kind of app, not taken from any app's screens.

Plans and prices

Every consumer plan on Glossika's own pricing page or app-store listing, in US dollars unless marked. Per month is the plan price divided by its term. Each price is what the seller was charging on the day we checked it. When a plan was on sale, its regular price is shown under the sale price; a crossed-out figure that is only a comparison, such as a year at the monthly rate, is in the plan's note.
