Feature Requests

As I've been chatting with the Lynx bot, it has been soooo helpful to have a flexible conversation where I can still benefit from my embedded translations and easily add to my vocabulary. It made me think that it would be amazing to be able to chat with other users this way. (And bonus points if you could record audio with transcriptions as well) I know this would probably be a huge undertaking / update, but it would be AMAZING, and I would be fully prepared to pay extra for a service like that! I have tried some other language exchange apps, and they're... just not that good. I feel like lingq tends to attract more serious language learners, and so it could be a really good fit, and I would trust you guys to make something awesome.

点击这个一键下载后，程序会开始自动生成语音，但是奇怪的是，它会同时生成列表内所有课程的语音，这导致了列表内所有的语音是内容缺失的，列表内正常来说每节课都是40分钟的音频，但是批量生成以后，语音文件的时长完全达不到这个时长。 我猜这是因为你们的服务器资源并没有余力进行多线程工作，我在lingq尝试多个文件进行语音转录，也会有内容缺失的情况，但是逐一转录是没有任何问题的，所以应该都是一样的。 将这个功能改为逐一下载，而不是列表内同时下载，这样即可解决这个问题，因为我在安卓端单次生成语音文件是没有任何问题的，是多线程工作造成了这个错误。或者说这不是错误，而是应该改变它的运行策略，这是lingq唯一一个能批量生成语音的功能了，但是却因为一个不合适的运行策略却无法使用，另外我在论坛也发了帖子，但是没有官方人员回复我，我不知道你们的态度是什么，但是这个功能对我又十分重要，只好再次来这里发帖了。

The Lingq library is very messy and it would be nice if things could be improved on that front by allowing users to create their own course shelves that would be kept separate from the library. I read books and would like to be able to sort out the novels I read by genre e.g mystery, YA etc. Yes, there are tags, but it's not the same. Ideally, the user could also move completed courses to a dedicated shelf since you don't want to reintroduce archiving. At the moment, everything is crammed onto the continue studying section, but completed courses have nothing to do here by definition.

When reading and looking up new words in page view, I like to hear the pronunciation of the sentence to check my own pronunciation. Although the space bar works, it is cumbersome: one has to position, start, stop, and reposition, while repeating with an a-key is really easy. As the a-key is already active in sentence mode, it would be natural to use the same key in page mode for the same purpose. My proposal is: to activate the 'a' key to read the sentence for which a word is selected from the recording (not the computer voice). If no word is selected, ignore the a-key. Prerequisite is of course timestamps. That way, I can study both the vocab of a new word, and hear the sentence if I want to, like in sentence mode.

1，将这个替换文字的地方放到前面去，每次都需要拉到页面的最后面才可以替换文字，增加了步骤，完全没有必要。 2，词典可以精简为大小一致的图标，至少在这一栏可以容纳4-5个词典，目前的图标大小完全是由词典昵称长短决定的，希望可以固定词典图标的大小，可以容纳多个词典的同时大小适中，方便点击。我在图中标记的“剑桥词典”由于名字太长，占据了词典栏的一半，如果我想用搜索引擎搜索或者谷歌图片搜索，那就需要右滑，这同样增加了步骤。

Current Behavior: When a long lesson is automatically split into multiple parts, LingQ assigns the audio file only to the first part. As a result, parts 2 and onward lose the synchronized audio-text functionality, making it impossible to follow along with audio while reading—one of LingQ’s core strengths. Desired Behavior: To maintain the integrity of the reading-while-listening experience, LingQ should either: Avoid splitting long lessons altogether, or If splitting is necessary, ensure that the corresponding audio is correctly segmented and assigned to each part. This would significantly improve the usability of imported content like podcasts or audiobooks, where lesson length often exceeds platform limits. Thanks for considering this enhancement!

支持将lingq文本文件作为lrc格式导出，你们已经支持将生成的音频文件可以下载到本地，那么为什么不再出个功能，让配套的文本文件也支持下载呢，这样导出以后，可以将常听的学习材料，拷贝到播放器中使用，即使lingq已经有了很好的相应功能，你们依旧可以出一个这样的功能，习惯于听有声书的的用户肯定会喜欢的，他们可以将想听的内容，存放到播放器中，轻量化的播放器使用起来更加流畅，符合自己的习惯，还有类似于工厂的场所，不允许带入手机的场所，再就是网络不发达的地区，有些地区的人真的是几个礼拜才能访问一次互联网，他们都适用于这个功能，可以将文件存到智能手表，或者播放器中，来聆听想听的内容，不需要担心网络功能，或者因为程序错误而无法访问lingq。 毕竟你们已经有了相关的配套功能，时间轴手动和自动调整功能，语音转录功能，语音生成功能，再出一个文本作为lrc格式导出的功能也不是太难的事情吧。

This feature would add a small, optional “Grammar” button next to LingQs or highlighted phrases. Tap it, and boom: a quick, plain-language explanation of the grammar behind that sentence, powered by a lightweight AI model (like OpenAI’s o3-mini). Still confused? Ask a follow-up question. “Why is this subjunctive?” “Could I use a different tense here?” The AI responds in real time, keeping you immersed and informed. Why This Matters • Keeps learners in the flow. No more bouncing between LingQ and grammar sites. Get the answers where you are, when you need them. • Deepens understanding. Grammar explanations turn passive reading into active learning. You’re not just guessing—you get it. • Feels like magic. Tap a sentence, ask why it works the way it does, and get an answer. It’s like having a personal tutor sitting in your pocket. Why Now? The tech is already here. Small AI models can handle this beautifully without slowing things down or breaking the bank. All LingQ needs is to build the bridge. This feature would instantly level up LingQ’s value—not just as a reading tool, but as a full-on language learning companion

Suggested by StewartLikesLingQ on this post: https://www.lingq.com/en/community/forum/open-forum/language-reactor-new-valuable?post_id=329313 "It would be even better if LingQ had it's own plugin like language reactor allowing us to LingQ/Mark Known Words on Youtube/Netflix subtitles without needing to import them into LingQ which would save a lot of time. For now I have to use LingQ side by side and it's a hassle or else I just have to read through the subs on LingQ first and then watch the video with Language Reactor after or vice versa."

there are some phrases not really always staying together, like pick something up, and I only want to creat a LingQ of “pick up”. And this problem is more deadly for the German separabale verbs(which are very commonly seprated and German learners cannot creat LingQ for them)
