Gravity
Vancouver, Canada
What it is
Gravity turns Japanese videos, music, podcasts, and captured text into personalized language-learning material. Its Media catalog offers more than 1,000 hours of native Japanese video organized by topic and JLPT level, while Moments presents shorter, swipeable lessons from real Japanese content. In word-by-word synced transcripts, learners can tap words to open dictionary entries, see contextual explanations, or save vocabulary. The app can also extract words from photos and screenshots. Saved words can be practised, searched, sorted, and arranged into personal decks; words saved from Media retain their source context. Spaced reviews and daily learning plans adapt to learner progress. Gravity supports learners at all levels, but Japanese is currently its only supported language. It is available on Android, iOS, and macOS, and the App Store listing labels it early access. A free plan is available. Paid plans include Special Offer at $4.99, paid once, Fluency at $6.99, paid once, Immersive Monthly at $8.99 a month, Immersion at $14.99, paid once, and Polyglot at $69.99, paid once. The maker describes Gravity as intended for travelers, immigrants, expats, partners of native speakers, and students abroad.
