  • Doesn’t work

    On the book, it Says to scan the QR code from the back of the book to get audio but there is nowhere to scan the code in the app. How am I supposed to get the audio
  • Japanese needs updating

    The book is great but I am trying to use the app for Japanese and it’s missing a lot of phrases. I would totally update my rating to 5 stars if Japanese can be updated to the current version
  • Doesn’t work with the books

    Unfortunately, there is no way to unlock the audio tracks once you’ve bought the book and there is no technical support (emailed the support email box a week ago without a response).
  • Hit and Miss

    The app on starting for the first time,

    "Choose your country"

    "English"

    "eesti keel"

    "magyar"

    "Latviešu Valoda"

    I'm no Geography major, but I'm sure these options are language display choices and not countries in the English language.

    Also, the French recordings I had are fine so far, yet one recording from Week 1, section 3 had written,

    "'Jai deux belles-filles."

    The audio to this sentence sounds like "Vais deux belles-filles." Which is obviously incorrect. The sentence before it, "J'ai quatre enfants." Actually has the "shzuuuree" of the 1st person personal pronoun. This is definitely a recording error.

  • Worthless

    Bought complete language pack and all i get is connect to internet to download audio files even though i am connected to the internet.
  • Really user-friendly

    The app is divided into weeks, matching the book, so is intuitive to use. Authentic German speakers on the audio, together with the pronunciation guides in the book, make it easy to repeat and learn phrases. Would recommend for people who want to learn the basics quickly.
  • Not Compatible with book

    Waiting on Penguin sorting out the APP company as I purchased the book and downloaded this APP as instructed only to find “there is a problem with the APP”. You need the APP to use the book!!!!
  • Doesn’t work

    I have bought the 15 minute french book yet the app won’t scan the barcode or accept the ISBN number. V frustrating
  • Needs Updating

    I was able to get the 15 minute Italian book scanned into my app but not the 15 minute Spanish New Edition, it seems like I would need the old edition right now. I’ll figure out how to make it work in the meantime, but it’s past time for this app to be updated. With new books related to this app still being released I’m surprised it’s so out of date.

  • Doesn’t work

    Downloaded app and took the picture of the books QR code. Download was glitchy and didn’t work properly. Started another download and didn’t come back to the app for several days to see if it worked itsself out. It did not. Opened the app again to use it and everything is greyed out and none of the audio lessons work. Would like a refund.
