Iāve been meaning to make this post for months, but here it is. When I started learning Russian four years ago there werenāt many apps out there, but now the app market is bigger and there are some great apps. Here is what I recommend and like.
Thoughts: This is an amazing app to learn the alphabet. I liked their approach and it makes learning Cyrillic simple.
Thoughts: This is another app to be able to read Russian texts with translation side to side. The great thing is that it has audio and you can choose multiple languages for the translation language.
Thoughts: This is a fun app to learn vocabulary in context as it presents sentences to learn from. It has different levels depending on how much vocabulary you want to learn.
Thoughts: I think everyone knows this app. It is great for vocabulary and when first starting a language. It is fun to play and has grammar notes on the web version.
Thoughts: This is a nice app to have language exchanges with Russian native speakers. Iāve had a positive experience with the app, but not everyone does.
Thoughts: This app presents new vocab through sentences. It repeats the words until you get them right, which makes it easier to memorize.
Cost: Free, need a US or Canada library card
Thoughts: This is a great app for learning languages if you are more of an auditory learner. Their approach is more conversational compared to the Duolingo and the lessons are fun to go through.
Thoughts: This is my favorite dictionary for Russian. It includes multiple entries as well as a flashcard & exercises option for words that you add/ favorite.
Thoughts: If you are at an intermediate level or above and want to know more about Russian idioms, this is for you. There are cute drawings that illustrate the idioms with the translation and definition.
Thoughts: This app is a great grammar reference. Ā It has vocabulary, listening exercises, phrases, grammar tips, and tables.
Cost: $5.99, but the demo version is free
Link: [Paid] [Free] Android Only
Thoughts: This is my favorite app on this list. It has over 1000 verbs and conjugates them for you, shows you imperfective/perfective forms, participle forms, you can look up verbs in English or Russian, and has a favorite function.
Thoughts: Telegram is a great messaging app and has been great for me to find Russian language groups and people to chat with.
Thoughts: This is a great addition to the Duolingo course as it helps you memorize the vocabulary from the Russian course.
Yazh Russian Case Declensions
Cost: $1.50 for full ad-free version, free for ads
Link: [Paid] [Free] Android Only
Thoughts: If you are struggling with case endings or need some practice, this app is perfect for that. It presents nouns, adjectives and pronouns like a quiz and you have to either choose the correct declension based on what it asks you or you can type it out if you want a harder challenge.
Thoughts: Yandex has a good translation app for Russian as well as a virtual assistant that is a good way to practice Russian with.
Also, if you donāt have them, download Ā Anki and Memrise.
