Popular language-learning applications such as Duolingo, Memrise, Busuu, and Quizlet are discussed as effective tools for enhancing learner engagement and autonomy. The study concludes that mobile applications contribute positively to language acquisition by promoting flexibility, motivation, and personalized learning experiences.
