Look it up. Save it. Remember it.
A Thai dictionary that explains tones, flashcards that schedule themselves, and a camera that reads menus. ThaiFlip is free on the App Store and Google Play.
Free on iPhone, iPad and Android
From first word to full sentence
Four things the app does every day, on the screens you'll actually use.
Search in Thai or English.
Type Thai script, romanization or an English word. Each result shows its level, part of speech and reading, so you can tell the everyday word from the rare one.
- A1 to C1 level badges on every result
- Voice and camera search from the search bar
- Example sentences split word by word, with audio
Review right before you forget.
Save any word to a deck. Spaced repetition decides when each card comes back; you only rate Again, Hard, Good or Easy.
- A daily queue of just the cards that are due
- Your own cards from text, a photo or your voice
- Decks sync with thaiflip.com when you sign in
Point at a menu. Tap a word.
Thai is written without spaces. Photo search reads the text, splits it into words and opens the dictionary entry for whichever one you tap. It works on photos from your camera roll too.
- Menus, signs, tickets and subtitles
- Save tapped words straight to a deck
Start with the words you'll actually use.
Topic lists from street food to small talk, each with audio and one-tap save. The quick reference lays out the consonants by class, the vowels by position and the tone rules, with quizzes for numerals, classifiers and telling time.

Does it work without a connection?
You can usually read words and decks you’ve opened before without internet. You’ll need a connection to search for new words, scan photos, study flashcards, or change your decks. Some previously played audio may also work offline.
Do I need an account?
No. An account is only needed when you want to save words, study decks, or sync progress with the web.
