Leave a Review Learn Russian Language & Vocab
Requires Syncing through Facebook
Currently there are many options out there to sync an app such as this, not sure why the devs insisted on using Facebook. Syncing through Facebook is tedious, and I really just hate using any app that requires a Facebook account. This makes me not want to grant Drops the review it deserves, and I pay for a “Genius” subscription because I do find it quality otherwise. They have my money, but they don’t have my approval because of the association with Facebook. The Facebook syncing is a huge mark against it in my book, I truly hope they change that in the future. I will definitely edit my review.Show lessEMarieNYC
Accelerated Learning Techniques Applied
Excellent app for making the learning of important vocabulary of a target foreign language fun. The technology used in this app subtly draws one’s focus away from the fact that one is learning new vocabulary, and lulls the objecting overly-active conscious into a quiet compliance. The call and response approach is effective in encoding new words in the mind for memory, the kinesthetic and tactile nature of the interactive game-like presentation make practice an easy habit.
One thing I’m having trouble with is getting my polyglot subscription to open in the general “drops” app. I purchased the polyglot subscription inside of the Russian drops app. I can access all the languages now from the Russian app. But not the general drops app like I would like to be able to see
Thank you.Show lesslogical induction 01101

Hi, Thanks for playing Drops and sending us positive feedback! Having the purchased subscription available in all Drops apps, not only in the specific one the purchase was made in is something we have been working on a lot. After logging in to the app, it should be working now as you wanted to see it. :) Again, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us!Fantastic!... except it’s not all free
The price is considerably low for an effective app like this. I love the interface; it’s probably the most aesthetic language app I’ve tried. The voice for the alphabet so for is slightly annoying and I’m not sure if the cards and voiceover are telling me the name of the letter or how to pronounce it or a word that starts with the letter but it’s all good. I’m really just a bit unhappy that I can’t check the words I’ve learned without getting a subscription. Like you’d think that a basic function like that would be free. Unfortunately it’s not. But that’s okay, because this app is pretty darn good.Show lesstheboobert

Hi, Thanks for playing Drops and sending us positive, constructive feedback about the app! We'll consider your suggestion, discuss it with the team, and we'll see what we can do! :) Is there anything else you think we should improve on?Prevents Burnout
Most language apps that I have used I have used for hours for a couple days and then eventually gotten burnt out on from overuse. Drops prevents that by limiting how much you can play in a day. It helps move what you learn into long term memory instead of short term, which is what you get if you overuse other apps and keep it all in short term (similar to cramming for a test). Besides, this is a pretty fun game as well.Show lessThe Nobody
