Bingy
Bingy is a Chrome extension for learning languages while watching YouTube or Netflix on a computer. It adapts subtitles to a user’s level and includes a vocab test during setup that estimates which words are already known.
The extension lets users define their own rules or choose from three ready-to-use modes. Chill mode translates unknown words inline and switches hard subtitles to the user’s native language. Focus mode shows hard subtitles in both languages side by side for maximum immersion, while Listening mode blurs easy subtitles to train listening comprehension. Bingy also highlights unknown words in yellow, lets users hover over any word to see its translation, and allows words to be marked as known with one click. The site says users can see their vocabulary grow over time, and that the more they use Bingy, the more accurate the vocabulary estimate becomes.
Bingy is described as a free extension. It is installed on a computer and is available as a Chrome extension. The site also says it is made by a team of two.
