FAQ

Which languages are supported?

mLearn ships with complete German and Japanese support. You can add your own languages too by following the guide on the GitHub page.

Can the app work offline?

For now, Offline-mode is restricted to Japanese because no free open-source German dictionary was available at the time of writing this.

Can the app work without Anki?

Yes, you'll just have to disable it by opening the settings menu.

Which platforms are supported?

macOS on Apple Silicon, macOS on x86, Linux on x86, Windows on x86

Is it free?

Since we wanted to make education free, mLearn is absolutely free forever and opensource.

mLearn crashes even if I have opened Anki

If you have restarted the app recently, it may have not closed properly; open your task manager and kill the process named 'python3'.

How do I stream a video?

By pasting a link to a streaming playlist (e.g. ending in .m3u8 or .mp4 or other video streaming formats), mLearn will automatically start playing that video.

How do I find the stream link of a video?

To find the URL of a stream, download the CocoCut video downloader Google Chrome extension, then go to the website you want to stream from. CocoCut is going to list you streaming links ending in .m3u8. You can copy and paste them into mLearn.

I opened Anki, but mLearn cannot see that I have opened it

Install the AnkiConnect plugin.

Why does the Japanese version of the app use so much RAM?

Since the Japanese version of mLearn doesn't send requests over the internet for each word definition, it has to load a HUGE dictionary into the computer's RAM for faster word access (which makes it use less power).

How do I add subtitles to a video?

Just drag'n'drop them onto the mLearn video player.
