How does one "learn IPA" ?

Most phone flash card apps will let you paste in audio or photos. Very handy.
@futurebird @brad I'd think the ideal method would be an app that speaks a word, and you try to enter the correct IPA characters; if you fail, it shows you the correct ones. Surely that's out there somewhere.

How does one "learn IPA" ? I'm interested enough in language and accents in a hobby kind of way that I don't think I can avoid it anymore.
But I find it extraordinarily intimidating. All those backwards letters and little embellishments...
What would one do? Make some flash cards?
IPA: International Phonetic Alphabet
It's stuff like this: ˈlaŋɡuad͡ziz@futurebird I half learned it incrementally. Read things you know how to pronounce in IPA then repeat until you can read English in IPA. With that as a base you can learn new sounds outside of English and map them to their IPA counterpart, it will look less overwhelming.

Something like https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/81778780 with Anki?@adriano @futurebird @brad Yes, but it needs a component where you hear the sound and you have to come up with the correct symbol.

*.apkg is a new file format to me but I’m very excited about it. Are there any clean, ad-free iphone or ios app you know of to use such flash card files? (if not no worries I plan on learning more about this kind of data structure— it’s something I’ve needed for some time)
