Mass-use of generative AI.

Felt scammed

I purchased a lifetime subscription just a few years ago, instead of updating the program they decided to just make a different app and force lifetime users to subscribe to it. That app is more how it should be using on iPad or iPhone, but I’m blocked out. I reached out to them they don’t care.

Unclear instructions

Bought through Apple so I can’t get my money back. Photos are hard to see on phone. Half the time I’m not sure what the App wants me to do.
Would not recommend.
Outdated. Poor learning tool. They need to clarify the lesson objectives. Repeatedly found my answer wrong when it was correct. Had to choose correct answer 3 times before I got it right.
Wish is I had never bought this App. Cost me $200.
This isn’t immersion. It’s Rosseta holding my head under water until I drown.
Waste of money.

Long time user

My family and I have used Rosetta Stone Classic for over 10 years and have benefited from its structure in teaching new languages. We have learned Spanish (Spain), Spanish (Latin America), Polish, French, and Italian to varying degrees due to our international travel. Rosetta Stone’s customized training programs are perfect for reviews and building a training plan before travel.

Thanks a lot

I am learning a lot thanks so very much

Great

Straightforward. No fluff. 👌👌👌👍👍👍

Rosetta Stone charged me 3 years of subscription fees

I thought I had paid for 3 months back in 2023. Instead there was a recurring subscription. $36 every 4 months.

They refunded only 3 of the 12 transactions.

Bueno

Muy beneficialitio

Doesn’t hear me

Sometimes when it’s my turn to speak, it doesn’t recognize my voice so it says I didn’t say anything. I didn’t complete it.

Timing

I wish I could review the lessons because I’m having a hard time remembering what I just went over.

Love

Love will not fail you.

Very frustrating

Many times when I go to complete a course it can’t hear or recognize what I’m saying. I’ve adjusted settings several times. Warning for anyone with a softer voice tone. It may not always hear you. I would also like this program more if it would teach you the sounds of the language first as well as the alphabet. When you start seeing letters that’s your not used to it would be nice to have an understanding of how they are pronounced. I use the translator a lot on my phone as I find that easier than trying to go through the app.

No translations. Horrible app

Update! Per developer response that there is a translate icon, I checked but I don’t have it. Per support the translate icon is not available in the app. Still a useless miserable experience. If the translate feature becomes available in the app I would like to use it. This app uses immersion learning which may be successful if you’re surrounded by people who speak the language you’re trying to learn. It doesn’t provide any translations. The pictures are not clear. It spends way too much time on ridiculously simple sound repetition. And very little time on verb conjugations and pronouns. I already paid for a year so I will continue to use it but I have a translation app open on a separate device to make it functional. It’s absolute terrible way to learn a language. I’ve learned there are much better choices than this app.

ayuda

Odio el francés. Llevo 5 horas haciendo rosseta porque no me capta el micrófono. Voy a tener flashbacks de esto y recordarlo como un trauma. Gracias.

Super!

For me always it’s the best app for learning languages

:)

It is very high quality and making it fun for me to learn a new language. I read a five because I’m trying to become bilingual and for somebody who doesn’t always go through what they want to do that makes it very fun and easy.

Excellent Resource & Fun!

As I am learning French through text this has helped me increase my reading and speaking speed. I love this program.

This is amazing

This is so much better than doulingo
