Hello everyone, I’ve been working on SubSmith for a while. I wanted a faster way to bridge the gap between watching local media and getting high-quality cards into Anki. Problem Sentence mining from video/audio usually means juggling separate tools: one to transcribe, one to scrub for the right moment, and another to grab the audio clip and screenshot for Anki. It's slow and disjointed. Comparison There aren't many d

Need brief

an app that teaches you how to use other apps (Clicky)
