Cut & loop is an audio player that makes it easier to use the sound sources that come with many language learning materials.
Cut & loop is an audio player for language learning sources you have like mp3s, podcasts. No account required!
Ad-free and background playback can be used up to a certain playback time.

In January 2022, for the first time in about three years, we made major changes to improve the usability and quality of the audio player.
Many features are also available for free (with some ads).

This is a useful app for many language learners, so please give it a try.

■This app eliminates the listening frustrations 
common with MP3s and other language sources!

Do you have any of the following complaints when using MP3 or CD sound files for language learning?
* "I want to hear it phrase by phrase!"
* "I want to easily rehearse some of the phrases!"
* "I need pauses between phrases to understand the content and to practice pronunciation!"
* "I want to check the text!"

If youre feeling that frustrations, this app is for you!
Instead, it can be used with your MP3s, CDs, podcasts, and many other audio sources, regardless of publisher or language.
