  • Better than Rosetta Stone!!!!

    I love it!!!! I have had Rosetta Stone for years as a matter of a fact since the first came out. I have learned and retained more new words in a few days than I have since I have Rosetta Stone. I love how they take movies that we all have seen and love in which makes it so easy to relate to actins and tones. I can’t say enough about it. The conversation are real conversation. They teach the variations of Spanish it just great all together. I love how when you read the books you can select the word and find out it’s meaning. When you go to the book section it well organized you can select from beginners or immediate, gene. The games the have are so much fun it helps you with spelling and you even have a game where you play with people all over. Again I can go on and on about this app!!!! I definitely found it well worth the money!!!

  • Not going to work for me

    First, I can’t even find the movie Heroes part after I chose to start with books. I realize I don’t know enough Spanish to read many words at all so I have to click on almost every word. I tried the vocabulary part. But it looks like it’s just a test to see how much you know. And it says “Feliz” means “lucky” even though google, duo lingo and the feliz navidad song all say it means “happy”
    I don’t trust the translations and I don’t see any books that interest me anyway. I’m more of a mystery, Stephen king fan when it comes to books. I also am not a fan of not being able to do much at all without a bunch of energy points. Duo lingo is way better in that they allow you to practice all the time on the free version without waiting for hearts or energy.

  • Great app

    Thoroughly enjoying the app. Started out using their stories on the app - I studied French in high school and was able to jump into some sherlock holmes short stories with the accompanying narration pretty easily. The nice thing about the stories they have in the app is they have google translate enabled to translate whole paragraphs/ phrases. The individual word translation leaves a little to be desired, as sometimes a combination of three or four words makes up a phrase/saying and the individual word translations do not convey the true meaning. This is the issue when you upload an EPUB file format of a book. I am doing the french version of harry potter and listening to the audiobook on audible at the same time. It allows me to translate individual words but not full phrases, so I feel like occasionally I am missing some implied meanings. Still gave the app 5 stars but it would be nice to integrate google translate a bit more to be able to capture and translate more than one consecutive word at a time.

  • 3 days trial?!

    I had high hopes for this, but I uninstalled after the screen asking me to choose a subscription plan. 3 days trial??? Seriously? How can I know if this is working for me in only 3 days, that’s ridiculous. Chances are I’d just forget to cancel and get charged for an app I’m not using.

    Also, it asked me what my native language is in the beginning, and I couldn’t select two. Then it proceeded to talk to me in the language I selected, without asking if that’s my preference. I’m comfortable enough with English to prefer it for app interfaces, even though it’s not my native language. AFAIK this is pretty common with folks living abroad and speaking English regularly, or even many folks that live in the lie home country and just use English a lot. I had to go back and start over and then LIE by saying my native language is English to get it to talk to me in English!

  • Nice app to read books in other language

    I love the ability to read books in another language. However, the pronunciation of the words is incorrect. The learn words option is impossible to do because the pronunciation is completely incorrect. I’m trying to read along with the French but the learn feature playback is in English and therefore pronunciation is wrong. The voice that reads the audio books however pronounced correctly

  • Ewa

    I purchased Ewa to sharpen my Spanish and it is a fun and interactive way to learn a new language, especially if you enjoy or have read the listed books for translation. Once in a while I ran into a few errors as it pertains to proper translation but other than that this is a great resource for beginners, intermediate, & advanced learners as you can tailor your learning to meet your needs.

  • Good app, needs more Italian

    The Spanish is entertaining with video clips. I wish they had that in the Italian version! The Italian lessons (courses) are for beginners; and the wonderful library of stories is for the more advanced learners (even the “beginner” stories are still pretty advanced). As an advanced beginner (A2/B1) there isn’t a lot for me. I like that you can see the translation of each paragraph in the stories.

  • A fun way to learn

    A great app that has been steadily helping me improve my Spanish. The coursework videos are fun, disguises the repetition. The games are also good, just more repetitions but more fun. I’m adding the reading/audiobooks if you’re interested in chipping away at literature (Don Quixote).

    I wasn’t sure at first, but having bought this, I’ve found myself using it more often and I’ve found it to be a good value. If I continually practice with this app, it is worth more than I’ve paid.

  • Ain’t going lie it worth the subscription

    It’s so easy and fast to use on my down time when I’m not cleaning or busy with my kiddos or working ! I’m refreshing up on my Spanish since I do understand a little, I just need to practice again some more ! I like that it’s using different show/movies or little memes or clips to help you learn! Makes it fun! Def worth the year subscription! Thank you ❤️

  • Awesome!

    It’s a very nice app with a proven approach to learning. Full of authentic materials for being exposed to the language on a regular basis. The only drawback I see, and I need to say this is a rare one in the app, is that in the review section for the learning words, the pronunciation is in a wired English while I am learning French! In the reading section it’s fine, and I see no reason why the pronunciation isn’t all right while studying the flashcards!
