Occasionally I see some interesting travel related products being crowd funded that I think you guys might be interested in.  We’ve talked about the Tropic travel shoe, the Cleansebot bacteria killing robot, and the Hypercube charger, among others. Here’s a few of the travel related crowd funded projects that I’ve seen.

Today I wanted to talk a bit about a new language learning app called Magiclingua, which bills itself as the first language learning app built for your tongue, not your thumb

All Kickstarter / Indiegogo links in this post may pay me a commission if you boost the project through my link.

Magiclingua language learning app features

The Magiclingua language learning app bills itself the first language learning app built for your tongue, not your thumb. I have used Duolingo and other language learning apps before and have not found one that I am in love with. I speak Spanish (in addition to English) and I can definitely tell there was a big difference in how I felt traveling in Peru or Spain (where I could speak the language) vs. Portugal (where I could not)

(SEE ALSO: Trying to explain miles and points in Spanish (it… didn’t go well))

Here are a few screenshots / pictures of the Magiclingua language learning app
