Best language learning app for Asian languages
Incomplete or outdated
It has a large library but the section seems like it was built by someone and left alone after. Not being updated since it was first built years ago. The design and flow is old looking.
The language structure they teach isn’t modern how people use today for some lessons.
Also the functionality of the app is lacking. Some small features and efficiency that other apps have, LingoDeer misses.
Asking around $150 usd seems very high for the current state. The reviews in-app seems artificial as well

Better than Duolingo
It’s good but…
😆
Not worth it!
Response from developer
Thanks for your feedback. The price you’ve referred to is for our lifetime membership, which grants access to all the languages we offer, along with any new ones we add in the future. If you’re focused on learning just one language, we also offer more affordable options like annual or monthly memberships, which might be a better fit for your needs. Over time, the lifetime plan provides exceptional value, especially for those interested in exploring multiple languages. We hope you find the right plan that works for you!
The first lesson
Response from developer
We're sorry to hear that your initial experience was more challenging than anticipated. Our learning program indeed includes an "Alphabet" section located right beside the first unit "Nationalities". We firmly suggest taking those alphabet lessons before beginning your first formal lesson. This approach provides foundational knowledge of Hiragana, greatly aiding in the early stages of learning Japanese. We're continually working to make our app more user-friendly, especially for beginners. Your comments certainly help us in that respect. For any further queries or if you need assistance navigating through our app, please don't hesitate to contact us at hi@lingodeer.com. We're always available to help guide and provide support.

hard sales push, not enough time to test
apparently theres a 7 days trial that you have to remember to cancel to not be charged. but its not clearly spelled out in the terms.
used car salesman all the way. left a bad first impression.
staying with duolingo even though maybe lingodeer would actually have advantages. but from doing only one lesson, there’s no way to know.
