Frustrating to use| Buggy to use
Doesn’t sync correctly and very buggy. You will click one language and another one will load.
Application trop lente
4 ans sans aucune nouvelle version ni correction de bugs. L’application ne fonctionne bien que si vous avez très peu de méthodes (langues). Sinon ça prends une éternité à ouvrir. Inutile et à la limite frauduleux. Dommage, la méthode papier est excellente.
Assimil
The application is EXTREMELY SLOW, not worth buying any of those courses, since you’ll have to wait much more time to learn a language than what Assimil claimed, and you’ll be frustrated to wait that long.
Baffling User Interface & Navigation
I've gotten a lot of value from Assimil books, so I looked forward to having that content in an electronic form. But the way you navigate this app, and the utterly confusing user interface, make this nearly impossible to use. Assimil publishes a PDF on their website about how to use the app, but a) it doesn't match the way the app works on an iPhone, and b) if your mobile app needs a PDF, you've failed. Be careful when you buy courses. If you buy without being logged into an Assimil account, you can't access the content on any other device, including other devices logged into your Apple account. Finally, Assimil says they have an app version that works on a Mac. They don't. It will download from the app store, but it throws off warnings that it isn't Mac compatible, and it doesn't work.

Progress not saved on IOS
Please fix this, progress are not saved and don’t sync on IOS, people pay for the e-method
Good but with errors
The app is good and functions well, with a good structure to learning the language.
The lessons are engaging for longer than other apps so I focus on a specific thing for more like 30 minutes rather than 5 minutes at a time.
However, I have found several errors in the lessons, where whoever has writing the lessons has made mistakes. This is a little annoying when you have to stop and check elsewhere if it’s your mistake or the mistake of the teacher/app.

Works well on my iPhone XR
Both male and female recordings are clear and the app complements the book very well. I’m glad I decided to invest in the app for audio and exercises.
Ne fonctionne pas
Juste la page de connexion et ensuite un message d’erreur. Impossible d’utiliser l’application
Seemed like it would be a great app but didn’t have my language
Since I know from language learners with my target language that the Assimil book is great, I figured the app would be a great way to use Assimil. But the languages are very limited.
Great material, unreliable app
The material is great but the app crashes often and doesn’t save progress on the same device or between devices, so on reopening the app all lessons that are marked as complete are reset.
