Duolingo
This free app tries to gamify language learning. It utilises spaced repetition algorithms which employ bite-sized microlearning tasks to have users repeat topics and vocabulary regularly. It has a host of languages that can be learned from both direction and uses a form of selective crowdsourcing to develop new courses. For example, English for Korean speakers is available but Korean for English speakers is still under development. |
Memrise
Memrise is vocabulary builder but employs an interesting association technique for memorising words. It has you link new words to ones that you already know to help you recall more readily. It also uses an algorithmic spaced repetition of microlearning activities to help users retain what they have learned. Combined with a user friendly interface, we have a competitive and effective language clearing app.

Lumosity
Lumosity features free daily "brain building" games which employ both microlearning and spaced repetition to challenge learners to think in new ways, solve problems, and even test their ability to multi-task. The games are designed to both practice and test executive function skills, like planning/prioritizing, and expand working memory over a focus on rote memorization and recall of basic facts.
