Point your phone's camera at the code: the App Store or Google Play will open.
Week 1
Letters and vowels
Just like in an ulpan: the alphabet and the vowel dots come first. In your very first lesson you read a whole word.

Dialogues from your week
105 dialogues: Kupat Holim, the bank, Bituach Leumi. Every line can be played back.
Further along
Situations, not topics
The shop, school, the doctor, renting an apartment. Repetition brings a word back just as you start to forget it.
22 letters.
Each one is also a number.
In Hebrew, letters also count: alef is 1, yud is 10, tav is 400. Tap a letter and it says its own name.
Read right to left, like all Hebrew.
