Toucan is incredible. The fact that learning a language now isn't a separate activity that requires context shifting is a complete game changer.

Awesome tool for learning languages! I downloaded it a few weeks ago to help with my French and have seen significant improvements already. Keep up the great work!
Taylor Nieman
@lj_brewster Thank you so much, LJ! So glad to hear you've been loving Toucan 🐧 ❤️\😊

As someone who speaks three languages and is working on a fourth, this is a great way to pick up quickly without even noticing. This is great!
Taylor Nieman
@mata_mokwala That's incredible. Thanks so much, Mata! 🐧 ❤️ 😊

It is very smart. Frankly speaking nothing comes to mind, so for me you are really unique
Taylor Nieman

Love this, already giving it a whirl and catching myself thinking in Spanish from time to time. For someone who buried a lot of their knowledge, this is great for starting to relearn your vocab and understanding of a language! Would love to have a feature that allows you to keep it paused on certain types of websites (banking, emails, etc), or a whitelist that you can customize through the dashboard.
Taylor Nieman
@sifc Thanks so much, Saif! We have that feature within Toucan already. If you tap the gear icon in the hover states, it will pop open the Settings modal. There you can pause on any site you wish 😊 ❤️ 🐧
Joshua Baek
Hi Taylor! This looks so cool! Could you let me know when Korean is added to the platform? :)
Taylor Nieman
@joshua_baek Hey Joshua! For sure. It'll be very soon! 😊 ❤️ 🐧

I really like this extension, I'm not that tech savy and it's actually one of the first I've ever used. However I am sad that Russian hasn't been added yet because I am learning Russian. I saw another comment that said it will be added soon but that was 6 months ago. I'm already pretty fluent in French so it's not that helpful so I decided to brush up on some Spanish but it's somewhat of a distraction instead of being helpful with my current focus language. I would love it if it was available in Russian because Russian is not an easy language to learn and this would be a great tool.
Taylor Nieman
@ashley_ashley2 Hey Ashley! We're still working on Russian. It's honestly taking longer than we initially expected so sincerely appreciate your patience 😊 ❤️ 🐧
David Gutiérrez
Great idea, started using it immediately. I have an issue making the extension work though. It takes minutes for the extension to kick in. How can I force it to "tag" words the moment I visit a page?
Taylor Nieman
@_dgut Thank you, David! The extension is just downloading relevant vocab for you in the first minute. After that, it shouldn't be delayed. My email is taylor[dot]nieman[at]jointoucan.com if you have any other feedback at all. Definitely all ears on how we can continue to make Toucan better 🐧 😊
