Audio only mode?

[milomibrat76]

Are there plans to make an audio only mode that has the cloze sentences and then the translation into your native language said after a certain amount of time to essentially use them like hands-free audio flashcards you couod listen to whipe doing ither activities? With your mass sentence adding features and text to speech and everything else, it seems like it could be a great feature.

Hi @milomibrat76,

What you’re describing sounds like “Radio Mode” which is available on the mobile apps:-

New feature - Clozemaster Radio

Hello Clozemasters! A new feature for the mobile has been included in the latest release (2.7) - Clozemaster Radio Clozemaster Radio lets you simply listen to sentences played at random. At the moment it plays the sentence audio, then there’s a pause, then it plays the translation audio, a pause, then the sentence audio with a pause again before moving on to a new sentence. The goal is to be able to keep practicing the language you’re learning hands-free and on the go. The pauses are m…

I don’t know whether it has made it to the web yet, although 2 years ago @mike mentioned that there is an “experimental” version available by manipulating the URI. For example to get Italian from English, you would use the URI https://www.clozemaster.com/l/ita-eng/public-radio
and for other language pairings you just replace the “ita” and “eng” with the relevant language codes (these are shown in the URI that you get when playing in standard mode).

Here’s the post where @mike mentions the public experimental version:-

My idea for a new pro feature: ambient mode

Thanks for the input! Please see A timer to automatically pause the Radio function - a timer is currently available for Radio on iOS, and we should have it out for Android within the next few weeks. We don’t have any plans to develop Radio for the web at the moment / in the short term, however! this was a “proof of concept”, isn’t linked to from anywhere at the moment, and it might break in the future - try https://www.clozemaster.com/l/isl-eng/public-radio. Curious to hear what…

So, what you describe sounds like a great idea … but as with a lot of great ideas on Clozemaster, if this is what you’re looking for then @mike has already thought of it and implemented it. However, I’m sure he’ll be really happy that you keep the suggestions coming, as they all go towards making Clozemaster better than ever.
