It only works with iOS 17.0+ Could you make it work with any versions lower than 17.0?
I'll take a look. I think there were a couple of features that required 17.0+, but I may be able to solve with an earlier version.

#82In case it's useful to anyone: another implementation of this idea is Weeve https://shop.weeve.ie I bought one of their books (a study in scarlet) but it wasn't great. Lots of mistranslation, especially later on in the book. The general idea seemed to work well though, with better implementation I think it could really help my french.
I'll give this one a try, being able to add my own books is particularly exciting.

#83This looks nice and similar to toucan [1]. I have built something similar but a bit different for the web [2]. Happy, to share the code in a non-so-permissive license with you if you plan to build out web support. [1] https://jointoucan.com/ [2] https://github.com/igeligel/tooltipr-extension
Curious to hear the reasoning behind using the US flag for English, given there's a country called England.

That's based on relevance.
Same goes for: Portuguese -> Brazil flag; Spanish -> Mexico flag; German -> Austria flag; Italian -> Switzerland flag

It's the 3rd most populous country in the world, and it's filled with English speakers?

#86I hate browser plugins - but this needs to be a browser plugin. Then I would use it while reading HN. ;-) I would suggest tackling dynamic difficulty and algorithmic selection of what words to learn, when, and how often, and then let improving LLMs handle accuracy improvements.

And you would prefer the English flag then - not the flag of the UK?

If those are the metrics we should be using the Indian flag.
