How NewLexi works and how to use its features: spaced repetition, word mastery levels, AI stories and dialogues, importing from Anki and photos, widgets.

How it works

How spaced repetition worksThe app decides on its own which word to show you today and which one in a week. Here’s the principle.3 min readFour mastery levels of a wordEvery word in your deck has a level: “new”, “learning”, “almost”, “known”. It shows not how many times you have seen it, but how confidently you use it.2 min readWhy dialogues and storiesCards teach you to recognise a word. Stories and dialogues show it inside living speech - in other forms, next to prepositions, inside set phrases. These are different skills.3 min readHow NewLexi generates content with AIStories, dialogues and exercises don't sit ready-made in the app. They are assembled for you at the moment you start them - from your words, your level and your topic.3 min readSentence BuilderThe shortest exercise where you build the phrase yourself. In the daily plan it is the “Sentences” task, and the same exercise sits under every story and every dialogue.3 min readWhy there is a plain chat with NewLexiExercises lead you through a programme. The chat is the only place where you start the conversation and it goes wherever you need.2 min read

How to do it

Add words from Anki and from a photoA finished Anki deck can be moved over whole, and a textbook page or a list on paper can be photographed. Both routes lead to the same review screen before anything is added.3 min readMove your Quizlet flashcards to NewLexiQuizlet sets move over as text: word and translation.

They open it, tick the words they want and keep them.2 min readAdd the widget to your Lock ScreenThree new words are visible before you even unlock. Setup takes a minute and happens in iOS, not in the app.2 min readAdd the widget to your Home ScreenThe word of the day and your streak right on the Home Screen.
