This is really good
This app is a Copernican revolution in language learning. Really takes care of the notions needed for fluency. It's just valuable notion after valuable notion after valuable notion. And anything you know already or don't like, you can just archive it with one tap. Unmissable.
Excellent way to learn
Immediately after starting to use Mjølnir, I could see how well designed it is. From having native Norwegian speakers recording words and phrases, to the use of SRS as a learning mode. It works very well for me, and compared to the bird app there’s a noticeable feeling of passion behind the design. Also ran into an issue, and their customer service team got back within minutes with advice and was incredibly helpful while I got my issue resolved. Definitely recommend giving them a try, and the year subscription is well priced as well. I feel challenged in my learning, but not overwhelmed. Absolutely worthy of the 5 stars and I’m excited to keep going. Tusen takk, Mjølnir!

Solid, serious, useful tool
I’ve been learning Norwegian for a few months now and this has become my most important tool for serious acquisition of the language. What I like most about Mjølnir is that it feels like a halfway point between a serious book on Norwegian language and grammar and (on the other hand) many of the “popcorn”-level free apps out there that only give you some basic vocabulary without serious grammatical instruction or listening practice.

Excellent Norwegian learning tool so far
As an expat Norwegian learner around A2-B1 level I have realized independently how important vocabulary knowledge is. If you know the words along with basic grammar, you can make yourself understood and understand a lot of spoken and written Norwegian just via context. If you don’t know the words, it’s a lot harder.
Mjølnir app looks perfect for addressing this, as it uses spaced repetition (effective and widely used memory technique) AND it’s also targeting the most used phrases and vocabulary first (trying to find these on the net can be difficult and of uncertain reliability.) So you’re learning the most efficient content, paired with the most efficient learning method. Excellent.
Finally, I also like that all the flash cards come with audio from native speakers (super useful to train your listening and pronunciation skills), and that it doesn’t allow you to overload yourself - when you’re done for the day, you’re done. The UI is simple but looks good and is bug free for me so far, so good marks there.
All in all I’m very happy with it and look forward to finishing the entire content within the next year. I think it’ll be helpful as another tool to increase my Norwegian knowledge.

You'll never want to learn anything any other way
This app has truly changed my approach to learning Norwegian. I really feel empowered to tackle the workload required for fluency. The app looks good and works really well. The audio is all recorded with real people, you can really tell.
Grammar is explained well, pronunciation too. It's hard to imagine something better, but of course you'll need to use it every day or at least most days.
