Could be easier to buy premium features
Great way to learn languages, but only allows subscription services to get unlimited learning time. Maybe add a way to buy out a certain language, or just buy a membership without a subscription. Maybe you could also add a way to watch adds for time. I personally don’t like direct debits and would prefer to buy something upfront 👍🏽 but I definitely recommend this for anyone trying to learn a new language, download this app and play for 5 minuets when you wake up, and maybe an hour before bed.

Fun interactive way to learn
Having used other programs, drops is unique in that there’s a lot of cross association of words and their symbols. Breaking the word down into syllables and having to reconstruct it and randomly adding in words you did earlier which did catch me out! Makes you pay attention. Impressed and will struck it out with his one.

Great app!
I got this app because I needed to learn more Russian. My initial reaction was "Its gonna be some dumb app that you need to pay $20 for." Boy, was I wrong! Although you do have to pay for the premium version, it teaches you a lot in 5 minutes! You learn at least 5 new words in those 5 minutes you have and you get to do different things to help you memorize and spell those words. The only sad thing about the app is that you only get 5 minutes every 10 hours. I also decided to learn French (which probably wasn't a good idea, I should focus on one language at a time. 😬😂) but again, if I just finished my 5 minutes of Russian (or vice versa) I would have to wait 10 hours to get another 5 minutes.
Overall, this is an amazing app for anyone who is a beginner at the language they are learning, or a pretty advanced person who just wants to learn some more of that language or more difficult words! 😊

So far so good
Supppper clean app design as far as looks. I cant judge the lessons since ive only used duolingo before this which was terrible btw.
But the looks and design are entertaining enough to keep me in.
EDIT: wasnt able to unlock the alphabet at the beginning. So that solves one problem. So the only comment i have is the pronunciation speed. Theres gotta be options to slow it down. Russian’s beyond difficult to learn so its gotta have a slow down option

Great app 4.5 stars
This is by far the best language app I’ve used and am picking up the language very quickly. My Only criticism is I wish the images were a little more realistic. For example the blue berry, melon, nail etc can be a little confusing when looking at the images. If the app had real photos or even some more detailed images it would be perfect. I purchased the full version and absolutely love using it.

Beautiful app that makes learning actually fun
I am a college student learning Russian and I’m brushing up before my next year. Can I just give this app a round of applause? It is such a gorgeously designed app. It has great colors, animations, sound effects, and all the other small details that go into creating a masterpiece. If you want to learn basic vocabulary for a new language, THIS is your app.
The only critique I have is that it only focuses on vocabulary so far, from my experience. I don’t know if it’s added later but I’m only in the beginner stages so maybe it’s included later on?
Overall great product and wonderful experience.

Awesome
This is great. I already know a few Russian words from a friend teaching me but I need to learn more and this app shows me how to read it which I don’t know. Just wish I didn’t only get 5 min every 10 hours. I’d like to access it whenever I choose
Fast and helpful
Overall, this app has very much helped me in learning Russian. My grandpa is from Russia and I wanted to learn to help understand him better. This app starts you off with learning the alphabet (which I learned super fast in under two days due to the fact that the app is very helpful and efficient). After that it moves into words and phrases which is more helpful for learning Russian. I very much like the design and simplicity as well. The only reason I gave the app a 4 star rating instead of 5 is because of the time limit. I don’t think people should have to pay to learn a new language. Also five minutes a day is helpful, but people who are more serious need more time. As well as that this was advertised as a free app. As a closing statement, I think the learning methods and efficiency is amazing but the time limit should be put as a larger amount of time.
Thanks for reading my review and have a great day.

Awesome! Retainable! Uncomplicated
Love that this app uses the teaching techniques that it does. It makes learning a different language seem so simple to someone like me who can complicate any kind of education I receive. I am the type of learner who needs the visual and interaction in order for me to store the information presented to me. Just reading and being shown in a chalk board do not keep my attention. The more interactive the better.
