Hi everyone! I originally built Brill almost 4 years ago as a small side project because I wanted a simpler way to stay exposed to vocabulary every day. Over time, I kept coming back to it — and recently decided to fully relaunch it with a lot more polish and features. Brill focuses on repeated exposure through Home screen and Lock screen widgets. You can choose light, dark, or clear widget styles, control how often words refresh, tap to cycle words instantly, and blur translations to test recall. You can also add your own custom vocabulary, filter words by tags or topics, and tailor everything to what you actually want to learn. Some of these features are part of Brill Pro, but the free plan is more than enough to get started and learn from all 15 supported languages: Japanese, Korean, Cantonese, Mandarin, Hokkien, Filipino, French, German, Italian, Malay, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, Danish, and Dutch. Would love to hear your thoughts — what’s working, what could be better, or what you’d want to see next. I’ve also got a Discord for anyone who wants to help shape where the app goes: https://discord.gg/E5VcWyBR6j Learn more on the website: https://www.brillapp.com/ Download the app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/br...

Who hunted Brill?
Brill was hunted by Addison Schultz. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.

Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
