In short

Buen Día is an education app for learning Spanish through real Spanish podcasts. It plays one sentence at a time, pauses, and shows the Spanish with the English translation beneath, with options to replay, slow down, or tap words for meanings. Its standout feature is that transcription and translation run on the iPhone itself, with no account or tracking.

About

Learn Spanish by listening to real Spanish podcasts, one sentence at a time.

Buen Día plays a sentence, then pauses and shows you the Spanish with the English right underneath. Read it, hear it again, slow it down, and move on when you're ready. It's the difference between hearing a wall of fast Spanish and actually understanding it.

HOW IT WORKS • Pick a podcast from the catalog, search for any show, or paste a Spotify link. • Buen Día plays one sentence, then pauses. • The Spanish appears in large type, with the English translation below. • Repeat it, repeat it slowly, go back, or tap Next.

MADE FOR LEARNERS • Tap any Spanish word to see what it means, hear its sentence slowly, and save it to your word list. • Replay a sentence and watch each word light up as it's spoken. • Listen slower without the voice going deep, at 0.5× to 0.8×. • Stretches in English, like intros, play straight through without stopping. • Ad breaks are detected and skipped, so you spend your time on Spanish.

SPANISH FROM EVERYWHERE Start with podcasts made for learners, move up to real conversations, then take on native-speed comedy and storytelling. Shows from Spain and Latin America are each transcribed with a speech model tuned to their accent.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN Transcription and translation happen on your iPhone with Apple's on-device speech recognition and translation. No account, no tracking, no analytics. Episodes you've started are saved on your phone, so you can pick up where you left off, even offline.

WORKS WITH YOUR HEADPHONES Press play on your AirPods or the lock screen to hear the next sentence. The lock screen shows the Spanish you just heard.

Buen Día plays podcasts from their public feeds. Shows available only on Spotify can't be played, because Spotify doesn't make that audio available to other apps.
